Project Synopsis
On a journey of self discovery, Bowie Madison must choose between being true to herself or hiding who she is in a misguided attempt to please her father.

Description
Stubborn, hotheaded & rash. Bowie always has something to prove and trouble to cause, which is exactly how she ends up getting kicked out of the Air Force Academy. Her need to prove everyone wrong always outweighs her self control, and leaves her paying the price. With her grief and loss of identity hanging over her head, she is even quicker to anger than usual. Despite not feeling like she can belong in the Air Force as a lesbian, she decides she’d rather hide herself than face everything she left behind, and is desperate to make her father proud. Open to female-presenting or non-binary people auditioning!
