Adam and Atticus are twins, yet completely different. Adam hangs out with the cool kids from the seventh grade during lunch, and already three girls from his school want to kiss him. Atticus, on the other hand, is mostly alone, building historically significant walls in his bedroom and has hardly any friends. When the brothers turn twelve, Atticus decides that he finally wants to step out of Adam's shadow and become cool. To achieve this, he develops a new plan every day: He copies his laid-back brother and ends up feeling like an unhappy, dressed-up version of himself. He performs as a rapping wannabe superstar and fails – not only – due to his musical abilities. And even the attempt to become a bully himself, in order to finally stand up to the nasty Mike, does not yield the desired success. But all these setbacks are necessary for Atticus to manage to step out of his brother's shadow and find his own path.

Sensitive and humorous, Finegan Kruckemeyer portrays the everyday struggle of two adolescents in the difficult search for themselves and their place in the world. For "ultimately, you always have to return to yourself."
The play is also available for classrooms in a mobile format.
