You're a high school misfit with the wrong hair and wrong clothes. You feel like you'll never find anything you're good at, or anyone you can relate to. Then, you discover hip hop, and find a home in the theater. You’re determined to be a star on Broadway.

There are just two problems — there’s no hip hop on Broadway, and no one who looks like you. So you’re going to make your own way.

Hosted by Robbie Daymond.
