Well this was adorable and lovely and such a joy to read. Even though I wasn't really all that invloved in theater when I was in school, I was in the pit orchestra and I felt the theater vibes this comic gave off. Plus, if you love the found family trope, this has it written all over it!
The world building worked well, especially with the world that the backstagers ultimately inhabit. The backstagers are also wonderfully diverse. Overall, it gives off Lumberjanes vibes, but set in a theater instead of at a summer camp. Will definitely be reading the next ones when I can get my hands on them!
