It’s the holidays and the local kids are bored and disgruntled. There’s nothing to do. They spend much of their time hanging around an old building site they’ve made into their hang-out. The local tough guy Sonny announces a take over. A show down is planned, but in the mean time, some of the kids hear about the Mayor’s City Spectacular competition. A prize is offered to the community group that can come up with the best way to improve the city. Sonny and the local kids become unlikely allies when they decide to enter the Mayor's City Spectacular. They overcome the efforts of the disapproving town hall officials to exclude them from the competition and work together to create a marvellous Message to the Mayor in rap form. A great play about kids developing a new, positive attitude.
