One Star Rising

In the height of Covid, thousands of teens travel to New Orleans to audition for the One Star Rising Reality Teen Singing Competition. A Top 10 is chosen to be featured castmates.

Teens all meet each other at the camp style housing and jump immediately into competition mode. Voice mentoring sessions are given by Karen Bradshaw and Holly Laviolette.

Teens learn the strengths and weaknesses of their competitors and tensions heat up. Jake Landy give the kids a Master Class in songwriting and the night ends in a costume party.

Producer Marc Mouton judges Round One performances where some elevated their positions, while others crashed and burned and have a mental breakdown.

Hamilton Broadway veterans Carleigh Bettiol and Ryan Vasquez arrive to mentor the teens. Carleigh teaches a Master Dance class to "My Shot," while Ryan sings "Dear Theodosia" and teaches a Master Vocal Performance class.

The remaining cast members sing their finale solo performance in front of the VIP Judges.  Honest critiques are given. The best of the best rise to the top. The teens are emotional that their journey has come to an end.
