I'm a girl on my way to school,
I have my books in hand and my leather shoes.
Everyone sees me normal so far,
But they have no idea I'm a superstar.
Model ever since a kid,
Acting, with money as my grip
As a scientist help I have brought,
And in politics I win for sure
In my room I have everything
And from Olympics all medals of gold,
Grammys a lot I have on my own
And Nobel's the best prices of all
I'm a girl on my way to school,
I have my books in hand and my leather shoes.
Everyone sees me normal so far,
But they have no idea I'm a superstar.
Most popular among all my friends,
Rich girl indeed in spite of my age,
The guys want to take everywhere in their cars
They all wanna play with the superstar
I've been on magazine covers
I even have pictures with the great Schwarzenegger
Of social work, I am a queen
And the Oscar I'm sure, I'm just gonna win
I'm a girl on my way to school,
I have my books in hand and my leather shoes.
Everyone sees me normal so far,
But they have no idea I'm a superstar.

Foreword

I know Daniel Vasquez from a long time ago as an interesting theatrical creator and a playwright of adult pieces, but for theatre for kids I just knew about the school he manages, TEATROPHIA, used to stage plays inspired only on entertainment industry work; so when I first read the title SOPHIA SUPERSTAR, and knowing that he previously had staged already his version of JESUCRISTO SUPERSTAR, it intrigued me to get to know the content of this piece and thinking logically and being very naive, of course that this was a kid’s version of the musical about Jesus.

Although it is true that SOPHIA SUPERSTAR is an eloquent wink of the famous musical, there is so little that has to be with it. From the point of view of the content it came as a surprise to me because of the risks that the author with the theme of this KIDS PLAY and at the same time the formal beauty with which this message is presented.

From the point of view of form there are no surprises. It is laudable the roundness of the structure. It is a musical play where there is perfectly
