WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Evan Goldman has it all - he's popular, has the 'perfect' family and lives in the greatest city in the world - New York. That is until his parents get divorced and he's forced to move - to a small town in Indiana. Uprooted from his old life, he has to make new friends and somehow maneuver the minefield of High School to become part of the 'in-crowd'.
With wit and searing honesty, 13 is a hilarious, high-energy musical for all ages. It's about the lessons one learns throughout life and the discovery that the journey to who you want to be starts with discovering who you are. Featuring an explosive rock score by celebrated composer Jason Robert Brown (Parade, The Last Five Years) and performed by an astonishing cast of young actors, 13 is a grown-up story about growing up.

13 the new musical (RE: 13)
13 is a very great musical. I would see it a million times. It ranks #3 on my Broadway scale. #1 is Rent and #2 is In the Heights. All of the cast is great and the songs are super. See 13!!

Sometimes the best comment to be made about shows such as 13 the Musical, now at Broadway's Bernard B. Jacobs Theatre, is that they provide an opportunity for multi-talented youngsters to show off. That's certainly what the 13 talented adolescents (plus an onstage band) do collectively and individually in Jeremy Sams' production of the Jason Robert Brown-Dan Elish-Robert Horn tuner.
Without question, the 90-minute intermissionless musical -- which has changed considerably since its 2006 Los Angeles debut (in which Horn did not participate)
-- undeniably looks and sounds lively. Nevertheless, it may also impress some patrons as little more than a bald-faced attempt to cash in on the High [...]
