Azure
is secretly in love with her best friend, Radhika.
Unfortunately, Azure’s other bff (bisexual best friend), Luke, also has a
secret crush on Radhika. When Azure is asked to
plan an alternative prom at her high school, she jumps at the chance, not
only because it’ll give her a chance to ask Radhika
out, but also because she believes prom should be more inclusive. Since Azure
has no clue how to plan a prom, she enlists the help of Luke and Radhika. Everything that can go wrong does, including the
PTSO eliminating all the events they find objectionable. Will the watered
down prom allure any students beyond the usual prommies
to attend? Can the prom committee even raise enough money to put on an event?
And, if so, who will Radhika go with? |
