Shout It Out!

Shout it Out is an original musical based on the lives of Vermont teens. The film is an adaptation of the groundbreaking original stage musical The Voices Project that toured to thirteen towns across Vermont in 2005 and was based on writings by Vermont teenagers with original music by teens. The stories and characters were developed during an intensive, yearlong statewide research phase in which more than 1000 teens participated. Shout it Out tells the story of a group of teenagers making their way through high school. The film follows them through some of the more tumultuous moments of teenage-hood: academic pressure; friction with peers, teachers, and parents; trying to fit in, trying to find one's self, fear of the future; friendship; and first love.
