TREVOR: THE MUSICAL – (Disney/Sarah Shatz)

Last week, Disney+ revealed the trailer for Trevor: The Musical. The trailer gives us a glimpse of Trevor’s life and the struggles he faces in middle school with his identity and how other students see and treat him. Starring 13-year-old Holden William Hagelberger as Trevor, Trevor: The Musical follows a charming 13-year-old force of nature with a vivid imagination. As he deals with becoming a teenager in 1981, Trevor struggles to navigate his own identity and determine how he fits in a challenging world. When an embarrassing incident at school suddenly puts him under the wrong spotlight, Trevor must summon the courage to forge his own path. A deeply moving and funny story of self-discovery and the power of acceptance, “Trevor: The Musical” is about living your best life with lots of passion… and a touch of pizzazz. The musical is based on the 1995 Academy Award-winning short film “Trevor” which ultimately inspired the founding of LGBTQ youth suicide prevention nonprofit The Trevor Project, the world’s largest suicide prevention and mental health organization for LGBTQ+ young people.

Trevor: The Musical also features Mark Aguirre, Aaron Alcaraz, Ava Briglia, Sammy Dell, Tyler Joseph Gay, Ellie Kim, Colin Konstanty, Brigg Liberman, Diego Lucano, Alyssa Emily Marvin, Isabel Medina, Echo Deva Picone, Dan Rosales, Aryan Simhadri, Yasmeen Sulieman, Sally Wilfert, Aeriel Williams, and Jarrod Zimmerman.

The Trevor (Original Cast Recording) is available to pre-save and pre-order with two tracks “Overture / Do You Know” and “On With the Show” available to stream now. The full album will be released by Ghostlight Records on June 24.
