Stupid Kids - Acting Edition

THE STORY: In rapid, highly stylized, music-video-like scenes, STUPID KIDS follows four students at Joe McCarthy High School as they make their way from first through eighth period and beyond, struggling with the fears, frustrations, and longings peculiar to youth. Jim is the new guy in town, sexy, a rebel. Judy is the popular blonde cheerleader. Neechee and Kimberly are the resident outcasts, both of whom are secretly gay. Will Jim become popular? Will Judy give her virginity to Jim? Will Neechee and Kimberly confess they're gay? With his magical touch, John C. Russell turns these familiar stereotypes into deeply moving and provocative archetypes of adolescence whose jocular lingo takes on a lyricism that is both true to its source and astonishingly revelatory of the hearts and minds of contemporary youth.John C. Russell is the author of 'Stupid Kids - Acting Edition', published 2000 under ISBN 9780822216988 and ISBN 0822216981.
