Chicago

Timid dork Edie accidentally takes the spotlight when she starts a punk band with her fellow losers, becoming an icon to the rest of the “turds”at her all-girls Catholic school while managing to piss off the hot girls, the nuns, and the horniest altar boy you’ve ever seen. A fast-paced, irreverent comedy, Edie Arnold is a Loser is a crowd pleaser built to be seen BIG and LOUD in a theater.
