Jeremy Heere is an average high schooler who just wants to fit in. But once he discovers the SQUIP, a super computer that implants itself in your brain and tells you how to be cool, his life takes a dramatic turn. With the SQUIP's guidance, Jeremy gets an invite to the hottest party of the year, schmoozes with the popular crowd, and attempts to win over his crush, Christine. But is becoming the most popular kid in school worth the risk? Based on the novel by Ned Vizzini, Be More Chill features a powerhouse rock score by Joe Iconis with book by Joe Tracz.
