Queer (including a trans guy), healthy male friendships and dudes having feelings, theater, and some supernatural magic fun and chaos. Beautiful, touching, fun. Brought tears to my eyes. That ending <3.

I put off reading this for a month after it arrived in my pull box at the comic store because I didn't want the run to be over. The final issue was so sweet, I loved it. Now to go back and reread the whole run from the start all over again!

I just finished this and I'm so emotional!!! This series is so adorable and colorful and wonderfully gay and I loved it so much, I don't want it to end :(

I love this series!!! I wish it was bigger so more could be explored in detail.
But even if it feels a bit rush, the art, the characters, the dynamics, the representation and the originality certainly make up for it!!

Overall, the backstagers has been an adorable comic. Great for teens who love theater, and some excellent LGBT representation. I felt like the conclusion to this first story arch fell a little flat, but it was cute.
