Tickets are now ON SALE for 13: The Musical!

13: The Musical is a hilarious, coming-of-age musical about discovering that 'cool' is sometimes where we least expect it. Geek. Cheerleader. Jock. Country Bumpkin, Band Qlique or Gamer. Wannabe. These are the labels that can last a lifetime. With an unforgettable rock score from Tony Award-winning composer, Jason Robert Brown (Parade, The Last Five Years, Bridges of Madison County), 13 is a musical about fitting in – and standing out!

13, a full length musical, address many concerns within a young teenagers life – from parents splitting up, being popular, making friends, being manipulated, the rumor mill and of course finding the journey through them.

Evan Goldman is plucked from his fast-paced, preteen New York City life and plopped into a sleepy Indiana town following his parents divorce. Surrounded by an array of 'simpleminded' middle school students, he needs to establish his place in the popularity pecking order. Can he situate himself on a comfortable link of the food chain... or will he dangle at the end with the outcasts?!?

So come and join the Horsham College cast for fun, laughter and a lot of cheek as they bring to the stage the real stories and struggles of being a teenager!
