Produktbeschreibung

Cut Loose! by Tony Award-winning actress Ali Stroker and Stacy Davidowitz is the showstopping sequel to The Chance to Fly. This uplifting story continues the journey of Nat Beacon, a theater-loving girl who uses a wheelchair, as she navigates the challenges of eighth grade and her passion for performing. Nat is thrilled when she learns about a middle school theater competition where the winning production gets to perform on a real Broadway stage. This is her chance to shine and prove she belongs at her new school. Drawing inspiration from her favorite musical, Wicked, and its empowering anthem "Defying Gravity," Nat lands a role in the school production of Footloose. However, rehearsals are far from smooth. With dance diva Skye pushing for more complex choreography, Nat's boyfriend, Malik, frequently missing practice for band commitments, and her best friend, Hudson, acting distant, Nat feels the pressure mounting. She begins to question whether she can carry the show to Broadway and if it's worth pursuing theater without the support of her friends. Cut Loose is a heartwarming tale about embracing your strengths, standing out, and standing up for what you believe in. Perfect for fans of musicals and anyone who has ever dared to dream big, this book celebrates resilience, friendship, and the magic of theater.
