EMO The Musical
Emo Ethan has just been expelled from private-school after attempting suicide in the courtyard. On his first day at his new school - the dilapidated Seymour High - he meets Trinity, a totally naive but cute Christian girl who is desperate to convert him to Jesus. But joining the Christian evangelists is the last thing on Ethan's mind.

The plotting gets somewhat repetitive and a touch of choreography to fill the frame may have helped.

It's a corker concept, unevenly realised, but delivered with enough energy and conviction to ensure you leave the theatre smiling.
