When aliens invade a small town and abduct the Greenville High School football team in order steal their “brain jelly,” it’s up to some cheerleaders, their soccer star friend, a self-proclaimed sci-fi nerd, and “the new girl” to save the hapless boys — and the very world as we know it!
The mysterious aliens announce plans to abduct the “ballfoot” players and leave them lobotomized! Fortunately, nerdy Gilda has a plan — it’s all spelled out in a book by her favorite sci-fi author. Using tinfoil, smoke bombs, grit, wit, and good old-fashioned school spirit, the cheerleaders take on the aliens in an epic battle. Will they all live to tell the tale? Thanks to a popular household dessert, maybe so!
Your cast and crew will have a ton of fun staging this show, which is at once both a classic story of good vs. evil and a fresh, modern tale that dispels tired tropes and old stereotypes while showing the power of positive thinking, teamwork, and acceptance.
