#SXSWRanked

Ranked - A Musical of Identity, Pressure, & Self-Worth

What are you worth? Who decides? And what do you do when it all comes crashing down? Heralded as the musical "that predicted the college admission scandal" (NPR's Morning Edition) and became the subject of the 2022 HBO documentary "My So-Called High School Rank," RANKED explores the intense costs of being a "successful" student. Audiences will watch a live and abridged performance of RANKED, directed by award-winning Broadway director & choreographer Mindy Cooper, followed by a roundtable conversation on students' mental and emotional health and the power of art in amplifying student voices.
