Overview:
Callie loves the theatre. The only trouble is… she can’t sing well enough to perform in the musicals she adores so much. Since she can paint a lot better than she can sing, Callie becomes the set designer for her school’s production of Moon Over Mississippi, and she has big plans for the production. But drama starts to unfold as the crew struggles to work together, and Callie can’t help but wonder if her new friend Jesse likes her back… or if he is gay.
