A story set in a parallel universe where homosexuality is the norm and heterosexuality is taboo.

Zanna, Don’t! tells the story of goings-on at Heartsville High School, set in the Midwest, where the jocks on the chess team dominate the school’s social ladder, the Girls’ Intramural Mechanical Bull-Riding Team set the rules for fashion, and every senior wants to be crowned Prom King and King or Queen and Queen. But the small community is turned on its head when Zanna and his friends stage a musical featuring a scandalous heterosexual kiss.

And I, for one, am grateful that it does.
