When the teenager Mary Elizabeth Steppe, a.k.a. Lola, moves with her mother
and two younger twin sisters from New York to the suburb of Dellwood, New
Jersey, she has the feeling that her cultural and entertaining world ended.
While in school, the displaced Lola becomes close friend of the unpopular
Ella, who is also a great fan of the her favorite rock band Sidarthur.
However, the most popular girl in the school, Carla Santini, disputes the
lead role in an adaptation of Pygmalion with Lola and also the leadership
of their mates. When the last concert of Sidarthur is sold-out, Lola plans
with Ella to travel to New York and buy the tickets from scalpers. However,
the girls get into trouble while helping the lead singer and Lola's idol
Stu Wolf, changing their lives forever.
Based on the teen novel of the same name, Confessions of a Teenage Drama
Queen follows Mary "Lola" Steppe, a newly displaced teen, whose divorced
mother has relocated from the trendy life of New York City to the urban
sprawl of Dellwood, New Jersey. Out of place in the suburban town, Lola
sets her sights on the lead in the school play while fantasizing about her
favorite rock group and how her life should be. When she learns that her
favorite rock group is disbanding and is going to put on their final
farewell concert in New York City, Lola pulls out all the stops to make it
to the concert and meet the lead singer, Stu Wolff.
When a New York City teenager from Greenwich Village, Lola Steppe, is
forced to move to the New Jersery suburb of Dellwood, she finds that in her
new high school, there is another girl, Carla Santini, who already has
claim to the title of most popular girl (and most rudest) that Lola had at
her old school. Aiming to oust Carla from her reign, Lola and her new best
friend, Ella Gerard, sets her sights on nabbing the lead role in the next
big school play "Pygmalion", which Carla also hopes to star in. As the two
girls engage in a war for popularity, Carla lashes back at Lola by
obtaining tickets to the sold-out "farewell concert" of Lola's favorite
band. Can Lola somehow sneak into the concert and quell Carla's latest
scheme, and at the same time meet the band's English lead singer, Stu
Wolff, whom she has such a crush on?
