A comedy special featuring everyday people as they read from their embarrassing teenage journals, poems, songs, essays (and more). The wonderful intensity of of tortured poetry meets delightfully soul-baring free verse for the totally sincere musings of the teenage mind. It's comedy on growth hormones. The bold souls who take the stage to read their own youthful writings remind us that everyone has at one time gone through the trials of Teen Angst.

Five high school students from different walks of life endure a Saturday detention under a power-hungry principal. The disparate group includes rebel John, princess Claire, outcast Allison, brainy Brian and Andrew, the jock. Each has a chance to tell his or her story, making the others see them a little differently -- and when the day ends, they question whether school will ever be the same.

Life's questions are 'answered' in a series of outrageous vignettes, beginning with a staid London insurance company which transforms before our eyes into a pirate ship. Then there's the National Health doctors who try to claim a healthy liver from a still-living donor. The world's most voracious glutton brings the art of vomiting to new heights before his spectacular demise.
