Cindy is living a double life: In World Wide West, she is a big name, known to all as a brave and charming heroine, but in reality, no one in East Paxville high school seems to even remember her name. Jessie, the most popular girl in school, has her world turned upside down, when she joins the virtual world. A famous streamer, Lucas, finds the girl of his dreams in the game, but there is a surprise waiting for him when he meets her in real life. Pixels and reality blend, and the line between friends and enemies is blurred in the most original musical of the year!
