Ash (the bad boy), Ewan (the romantic boy), Cody (the sporty boy) and Ruben (the... other boy) are kicking off their second tour as the biggest boyband in the world, MAN!FEST. There's just one catch: they're played by women. Their tweenage fangirls are maturing and the threat of female empowerment and independence looms. With constant pressure from management, and an overwhelming sense of duty to their screaming groupies, MAN!FEST fights from collapsing as the demand for perfection reaches impossible heights. A riotous drag musical that exposes toxic masculinity and its effect on boybands and fangirls.
