Described as High School Musical on crack! Kevin! [The Musical] is an up-and-coming dark comedy show written by Will Sharland. It follows an exchange student from England, named Kevin, who comes to America intending to find out what the USA is really like in 2026. Kevin, however, finds himself trapped inside the world of a cheesy high school musical, which only becomes more absurd and nightmarish during his time across the pond. Kevin is unsure who to trust as everyone seems crazy, though it might be Kevin himself, or something else, that is actually going insane...
