Summary
THE ISLAND CLUB- (FRIENDSHIP)

In landscape of high school the cafeteria is the place where the social hierarchy is on full display.  Every kid in school wants to sit at the popular table but the gatekeeper is Claire and her group constantly changes the rules for admission. Alexa looks on longingly at the popular table and tries to imagine what the life would be like if she was there.  Eventually, she realizes that some rules are meant to be broken and the popular table is not necessarily the place to be.

The Chicken Soup for the Soul theater series is written exclusively for teen characters. There are no adult parts. The casting is flexible and can be adapted to your specific parameters. 

The Island Club has an optional chorus of boys and girls which can be expanded to involve your entire ensemble.
