If you find yourself in the position of having more actors than our script has roles, feel free to add an ensemble as you see fit.

On Halloween, Jake hosts a large party that features alcohol and other shenanigans ("Halloween"). Christine arrives in her Juliet princess costume because of Jake's past compliment on it, hoping to please Jake, but he brushes her aside to party. Jeremy arrives to meet Brooke, but Chloe, who is jealous of Brooke, tries to seduce Jeremy. Jeremy is uncomfortable and tries to get away, but the SQUIP forces him to remain in the situation as it escalates to Chloe making out with Jeremy ("Do You Wanna Hang?"). Chloe also has Jeremy drink alcohol, causing the SQUIP to malfunction, and then feigns having sex with him, angering Jake and breaking Brooke's heart. BE MORE CHILL Chicago Announces Three Month Postponement". Broadway World. 2020-03-12 . Retrieved 2020-03-31. The wise, witty narrator and sensitive handling of a hot topic should win over older teens—and their parents." Now, onto my second major complaint. The Super Quantum Unit Intel Processor. The SQUIP. The SQUIP (or squip) is the turning point of the book. The squip's objective is to take an uncool person and make him cool. It makes him be more chill. It does this by implanting itself into the subject's brain (via a travel through the bloodstream after the subject injects the pill that contains the squip). After the squip is in the brain of the uncool person, it feeds the person instructions on how to speak and act. This is a problem. The squip says that having a predatory attitude toward women, disrespecting your parents, and abandoning your friends is cool. Jeremy takes the squip, listens to all of its instructions and you can probably guess where it goes from there.The book follows Jeremy Heere, his crush on Christine Caniglia (who he only likes because of her looks, as he has never spoken to her), and his discovery and use of the SQUIP. Now that you get the main idea, let's start with my complaints. Why is Jeremy so mean to Michael? And why did Michael just accept all of Jeremy’s crap? At some point Jeremy should have realised that the Squip is just a piece of technology and Michael has been his best friend for many years and treating him like dirt is just going to make him leave. Of course, it’s all explained that Michael realised what was going on, and there were no hard feelings, but that just takes the onus off of Jeremy completely. Jeremy wasn’t a bystander, he chose to do what the Squip told him, but the book ends up treating him like he was a bystander. I'm masturbating still, watching a video, but it's not like I'm masturbating to Michael. I'm multitasking masturbating. And then he gets a “squip”—a pill-sized supercomputer that you swallow. The squip transforms Jeremy into a confident, handsome heartthrob. It tells him how to dress, how to act, what to say, and whom to avoid. Suddenly Jeremy is cool and can have any girl he wants—but he still only wants Christine. Another issue this book runs into is that though infidelity is dismissed when males commit it, girls are continuously and pervasively labeled "sluts" and "whores" and have every insult in the book thrown at them (by both girls and boys).

Be More Chill: The Graphic Novel - Disney Books

This book is absurd. I love all the pop culture references, and I love how all over the place the narrative is. This book is so bad that it is good. I found this book to be really funny, especially all of the Keanu Reeves stuff. I really enjoyed this book. Then the art style morphs between the two depending on who is dominating the narrative as the story's being told, untilEveryone believes that Salil Singh killed his girlfriend, Andrea Bell, five years ago—except Pippa Fitz-Amobi. Disney Books and Storygram Tours provided me a complimentary copy of the book in exchange for an unbiased review. Thanks for making it available! Be More Chill has been such a hit with US audiences, Tumblr revealed in 2018 that it ranked as the second most-talked-about musical on its platform, and is now only topped by Hadestown and Hamilton. Stuffed with jokes, physical comedy and relatable scenarios, the Be More Chill West End show should not only appeal to today’s Gen Z-ers but also to their parents, who likely had their own internal tussles when they were growing up. He's not unnecessary--he's my friend. He could have all of the hot girls, but instead he only wants Christine: "That's who I like and that's who I want to be with" One thing that i really like about this book is that it has everything a teenager wants to read about. Well maybe this is true for all the boys. Girls can read it only if they don't get grossed out by the male sexual details inside. But still, who couldn't relate to Jeremy? Almost every high schooler has at least one crush and needs to find a way to get to their crush. They rely on advice. Who would have though that it would be a supercomputer that gives you all the advice you need? How unique is that? It is true, the computer does tell you everything you need.

The Broadway musical Be More Chill was based on a YA novel of the same name by the late Ned Vizzini. I think this book requires a certain type of mindset going into it to actually enjoy it. That mindset would be to not take this book seriously at all. This book is definitely meant to be taken satirically. If you take this book at face value that means you'll be horrified by how vulgar this supposed "Young Adult" book is. This book is filled with complex issues such as drugs, partying, alcohol, sexism, stealing, and a whole barrage of other mature themes that I don't want to get into.Night bus numbers: (Tottenham Court Road Station) 134, 176, 242, 390, N8, N29, N35, N41, N55, N68, N98, N121, N253; (Museum St) 25, N1, N19, N38, N207

Insightful and utterly authentic. . . . This is an important book."— The New York Times Book Review Mostly I thought it had too many mean girls and guys and nasty drama that made me happy that I’m no longer in high school. Is it really like this? Yikes. But the squip was an interesting idea with a humorous voiceover that I feel I’ve encountered before in some other movie or book….? Can’t think of it now tho. When Jeremy first gets the squip, he makes out with this girl named Brooke. Even though it seems great at first, things go badly and Jeremy leaves. Disney Brings "Be More Chill" From Broadway/West End To Graphic Novel". bleedingcool.com . Retrieved 2021-02-16.Be more chill is about high school junior, Jeremy Heere and how he, in his most fragile desperate teenage state, spent 600 dollars on a supercomputer called 'the SQUIP' that teaches him how to be cool…. or more appropriately chill. Jeremy doesn't think any of this is possible until he learns about the "squip." A supercomputer that is swallowed as a pill, the squip implants itself in the user's brain and gives that person instructions as to how to behave and how to reach their goals. Soon, Jeremy finds himself working out to become buff, socializing with people who used to make fun of him, and transitioning from geek to...Cool. It's weird for me to read this book because the main character, Jeremy, I really think is based on Ned. Jeremy says things about himself that I have heard Ned Vizzini talk about or seen him do. Of course, the book is a little bit sci-fi, so heaps of it are made up, but this book is a quite memoir-eque fictional novel in that it seems to be how Ned has worked out his high school dorkiness and confusion and angst about not getting with girls. Jenna went into her thing about, 'Elizabeth let four guys do her on the bus' and I had the balls to say to her what I've always wanted to say, deadpan: 'Shut up, Jenna. We know Elizabeth is like your Spider-Slut alterego or something.'" (171).
