MOVIE : Better Nate Than Ever (2022)

Nate Foster, 13, is an unpopular Midwestern child who fantasizes about becoming a major Broadway musical star.

Meanwhile, Nate is unable to secure a decent role in his middle school’s theatrical shows, instead being placed as a tree in the chorus rather than the lead role he desires.

However, he and his closest friend Litty plan a daring trip to New York City to audition for “Lilo and Stitch: The Musical” without their parents’ knowledge.

“The Musical,” says the author. Nate could be on the approach of realizing a lifetime ambition. But first, he must overcome a series of ludicrous obstacles that threaten to derail his Broadway journey at every turn.
