Front of the Class

A boy with Tourette's syndrome overcomes criticism and discrimination to achieve his dream of becoming a teacher.

The French Italian

Doug and Valerie have made a mistake.

Their friends are horrified, and regret is setting in. They start plotting their revenge— and before they know it, they’re staging an off-Broadway play…
