Noteworthy by Riley Redgate
It's the start of Jordan Sun's junior year at the Kensington-Blaine Boarding School for the Performing Arts. Unfortunately, she's an Alto 2, which - in the musical theatre world - is sort of like being a vulture in the wild: She has a spot in the ecosystem, but nobody's falling over themselves to express their appreciation. So it's no surprise when she gets shut out of the fall musical for the third year straight. But then the school gets a mass email: A spot has opened up in the Sharpshooters, Kensington's elite a cappella octet. Worshiped . . . revered . . . all male. Desperate to prove herself, Jordan auditions in her most convincing drag, and it turns out that Jordan Sun, Tenor 1, is exactly what the Sharps are looking for.
" Combining the laughs of the situation Jordan finds herself in and the depth of the story it's rooted in, Riley has created a really gripping, not to mention awesome, novel that I adored even more than her debut (and that's saying a lot, because I loved Seven Ways We Lie!)Noteworthy discusses subjects such as gender, race, religion and poverty in honest and enlightening ways, and is wrapped in a contagiously fun musical theatre and a cappella package. What is there not to love?!" * Page to Stage Reviews blog *
