Overview

Middle School, ugh. It’s the worst. Greg is determined NOT to be at the bottom of the popularity chart. He’ll leave that to his weird neighbor Fregley, or, maybe Greg’s best friend, Rowley Jefferson. But it’s not going to be Greg … no way. Will Greg’s plans lead him to sacrifice his one true friend? Can anyone avoid the dreaded Cheese Touch? Grab a hall pass, and don’t be late for an adventure familiar to anyone who survived middle school with this hilarious and heartfelt musical.

Book by Kevin Del Aguila, music and lyrics by Michael Mahler and Alan Schmuckler . Based on the Diary of a Wimpy Kid book series by Jeff Kinney and the 20th Century Fox Films.
