13 is the most amazing, upbeat, hilarious and genuine show to ever hit broadway. All of the kids are between the ages of 12-18, and this goes for the band as well. This is the first time in history that an all teen cast has hit broadway!!The musical is written by Jason Robert Brown. Off the bat, that means that 13 is very original and unique. The show is about 13 year old Evan Goldman, who moves from NYC to Indiana at the height of becoming a teenage. He has to deal with things all the other kids are dealing with such as dating, popularity, and kissing, a long with fitting in in a new community. The show is fun, comical, and completely family oriented.

It just opened on broadway on October 4th, so you will definitely have time to see it, but there is something cool and amazing about seeing the Original cast.Overall, seeing 13 will either give you a preview about what the teenage years are like, will help you connect with what you are going though now, or bring back those childhood memories from the good old days!! :) Have a wonderful day!! :)
