  • Overview

    The heart of the Dallas Arts District--Booker T Washington High School. A haven for creative budding artists, inspirational instructors, and unlikely criminal delinquents. Four theatre students are faced with the challenge of traversing the country in an attempt to save their recently-jailed friend amidst a hectic schedule of submitting a film to a nationally recognized film festival, attending a bogus talent-search audition, and "breaking up with all [their] girlfriends." Shot on-location on the road from Dallas, to the Grand Canyon, to Las Vegas, to Los Angeles, these four friends band together to face the challenges ahead of them. From deadly chases and police encounters to casino crashing and drug dealers, this semi-documentary tells an epic coming-of-age story that is sure to speak to your inner "artistic troublemaker." —Charles Wallace

Becoming heir apparent at just three years old, Charles has become the oldest and longest serving heir apparent in British history, as well as the longest serving Prince of Wales, having held the title since 1958.

Charles is president or patron to over 400 charities and organisations, and known as one of the most hard-working royals, alongside his sister Anne, the Princess Royal. In his many years of service to his country, he has undoubtedly earned his place, and earned the respect and admiration of the people.
