1982 - South Bronx, USA. When Charlie Rosa receives a letter, his life becomes about big secrets, little lies, and humongous pressure. Luckily, he has one hell of an imaginary friend. A coming of age story about a summer of baseball, bullies, boarding school, and...girls. It's hard being fourteen.

The cast features Malik Ali (Boardwalk Empire), Sean Carvajal (award-wining short film Crush on HBO), Talia Marrero (Off Broadway debut), Alejandro Rodriguez (Romeo in Romeo & Juliet with The Acting Company), Rodney Roldan (Nurse Jackie), and Andrew Schoomaker (Writers Retreat at the 2013 Strawberry Theatre Festival, Best Actor Award).
