Set in a Southern California high school in 1999, "Winner" is an electrifying new musical about ambition, identity, and the messy business of growing up. Autumn has spent her whole life preparing for this student election. But when her best friend (with benefits) launches a surprise campaign against her, buried secrets, long-simmering tensions, and unexpected truths threaten to upend everything. Following acclaimed workshops at Goodspeed Musicals, New York Theatre Barn, and London’s West End, this world premiere developmental production features a cast of 26 rising stars and a powerhouse live band. With a high-octane pop-rock score by Nico Juber and Joe Barros, "Winner" pulses with heart, humor, and the raw energy of a generation on the cusp of change. The class of 1999 is coming out and coming of age. Everything’s about to glitch. Recommended for audiences 13+ due to mature language. Presented by: Blindspot Collective Blindspot Collective on Facebook / Instagram
