Synopsis

Kavi Sharma loves singing and dancing, so when her middle school announces a musical revue, she and her friends Sophie and Pari decide to perform a dance together. If only they could agree on what dance style to do! Soon, all Kavi can think about is the revue, and her schoolwork starts to slip, which has never happened to her before. Kavi's little brother Rishi says she has a bad case of "Broadwayitis." Can she find a way to stay on top of on her schoolwork and get her dance moves down before the curtain goes up?

Kavi's singing practice pays off when she's cast in the spring musical. Will this be her stepping stone to Broadway stardom? When an unexpected event threatens the performance, Kavi knows one thing for certain: The show must go on!
