Suggested by the Ralph Keyes novel of the same nam this is a "memory musical". Our stalwart cast plays various characters remembering the joy the laughter and the pain of what it was like to go through high school.

Charming funny touching and likable ... it's a gentle low key piece that wins its way by being so enjoyable. Somehow it touches a common chord audiences can relate to it and to the gallery of characters that inhabit it as they look back on their high school days from 10 to 20 years on.... The score ... is actually melodic.... The lyrics have the same sharpness and insights as the dialogue and at least two or three of the songs would seem to have the ability to stand alone.-- Variety.
