13: The Musical features quite the young cast, with a few familiar faces – Eli Golden (Evan), Gabriella Uhl (Patrice), JD McCrary (Brett), Frankie McNellis (Lucy), Lindsey Blackwell (Kendra), Jonathan Lengel (Archie), Ramon Reed (Eddie), Nolen Dubuc (Malcolm), Luke Islam (Carlos), Shechinah Mpumlwana (Cassie), Kayleigh Cerezo (Molly), Willow Moss (Zee), Liam Wignall (KC) and Khiyla Aynne (Charlotte), as well as Debra Messing, Rhea Perlman, Josh Peck and Peter Hermann.

Here’s a full synopsis: Following his parents’ divorce, 12-year-old Evan Goldman (Golden) uproots from New York City with his mother Jessica (Messing). With his Bar Mitzvah fast approaching, Evan is devastated that he must leave all his friends, his father (Hermann) and his rabbi (Peck) behind. But upon arriving at his grandmother’s (Perlman) house in small-town Walkerton, Indiana, he hatches a plan to win new friends by turning his Bar Mitzvah into the coolest party ever.

As an outsider navigating the complicated social circles of his new school, Evan quickly finds out he’s not the only one grappling with the all too familiar anxieties of eighth grade. While his new friends Patrice (Uhl) and Archie (Lengel) fret over the fate of the planet and unrequited love, respectively, popular cheerleader Lucy (McNellis) desperately plots to stave off a first kiss between her crush Brett (McCrary) and best friend Kendra (Blackwell).

To make matters worse, Evan invites the popular kids to his party—who aren’t fans of Patrice. With these competing interests in play, Evan faces the impossible task of bringing everyone happily together in time for his party, or else risk social ruin. Suddenly, turning 13 isn’t looking as good as it’s cracked up to be.

Tamra Davis serves as director, with Robert Horn as writer and Neil Meron producing. Jason Robert Brown, who penned the music and lyrics for the Broadway show is one of the executive producers of the movie. Robert Horn also co-wrote the Broadway show and is also an executive producer.
