** The ensemble features Daniel Letterle, Don Dixon, and Joanna Chilcoat. The story follows shy Ellen Lucas as she reconnects with her friend Michael Flores, a gay teenager who was violently beaten by his classmates after showing up to his junior prom in drag. The group also introduces nerdy Fritzi Wagner, who longs to befriend the icy Jill Simmons but ends up toting her luggage instead, hinting at the social tensions that simmer beneath the surface. Returning camper Jenna Malloran laments that her parents forced her to have her jaw wired shut in order to lose weight, a wound that mirrors the camp’s broader pressures to perform and fit in.
