Your school was having a school play, and of course you were given the lead. The only unfortunate thing about school play's is that they can give you characters that you could hardly figure out to play. The auditions for them make absolutely no sense, because you always get a part you are not happy with in such a thing.
However according to your hot theater teacher Mrs. Valene, you were given a role out of pity. This was obviously a trap, because you knew that your acting wasn't that good because you can't take the outfit you wear seriously, but the teacher informed you that if you don't act like the character you were playing as, you will fail her class. You didn't even want to be a part of the class anyway, because you were forced to take it by your principal to increase your popularity.
