Oliver is a depressed queer kid, much like the one reading this right now. *winks* He is passionate about theater, and he's dreamed of beng a famous actor ever since he was but a tiny gay human. 
Trevor is a moody, sulky, troubled boy that tries his best to blend in. Music is his passion- he never goes anywhere without his earbuds and MP3 player. Trevor is also a theater kid. He works backstage with tech and set design. 
Oliver and Trevor have known each other since kindergarten, but they aren't really friends, they're just acquaintances. That is, until Trevor decides to try out for a role in the upcoming musical, what with his passion for music and all, and lands the leading male. Which was Oliver's part. I mean, not officially, but still...that's gotta hurt. Oliver landed the second lead, which means he and Trevor will have to work very closely together. They get to know each other, and as Trevor opens up about his past, Oliver starts thinking about his. When it gets to be too much for them, will Trevor's music save Oliver? Or will Trevor follow Oliver's acting and put on a mask?


Also, listen guys...I know this description sucks, I just feel kinda inspired to write right now. I would LOVE feedback but please don't be a douche. Constructive. I like the construction. Yep. Okay cool, well I hope you depressed queer nerds enjoy reading about depressed queer nerds. ;)
