The life and death of a pimple, the brainstorming, gut-wrenching, heartrending experience of a phone call with your “crushee”. Calling out to teenagers (from 1 to 92). Live, or relive, this strange phase of life called “College years”!

The Teenage Textbook, for those of us who remember Adrian Tan’s hilarious book from someyears back will be glad to see it come to life again on stage. The foul-ups, bloops and blunders that his cast of College students make on a date, the agonizing before and after a date — is this what teenagers live for?

Join Lee Mui Ee (the ice-cream girl) as she tries to find herself (and find herself a boyfriend!) amidst friends like Sissy Song (a.k.a. Thithy Thong), her nagging mother, her principal Dr E Sopramaniam and a host of other assorted and assaulted people.

Funny lines, funnier situations and characters so funny they are who we are, or at least, who we were!
