A party on stage, hosted by a large group of 13-17 years old. They play their favourite music, sometimes they sing along or dance or cry or whatever. They talk about their music, their ideas, worries, thoughts and dreams. They hang-out and listen to each other with their audience, supporting and celebrating each other. The stage is theirs, the words are theirs, it’s their party and they do whatever they want.
