SKANKY ME FROM KANKAKEE, a world premiere rock musical by Marc Francoeur, will set the Hollywood Fringe Festival 2015 on fire with its empowering and inspirational message of #embraceyourfreak.

Imagine BILLY ELLIOT meets LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE meets HEDWIG in the cornfields of the Midwest.

Marc, who strives to escape his narrow-minded dead end little town, aches to live in a world where he can be free to be his true self! It is a humorous tale of navigating the perils on the path to one’s sexual identity, set against the backdrop of the Sexual Revolution. Fire Baton Twirling Football Hero, Good Son, Bad Boy, Clown, Bully…How many people have you been on the way to finding out who you are?
