Despite having a computerised wardrobe planner and personal masseuse, Cher insists that she actually has ‘a way normal life for a teenage girl’, in which school takes a backseat to wardrobe issues and match-making. When new student Tai arrives, Cher’s quest to find her the perfect boyfriend leads her to question her own seemingly perfectly life – a campaign for self-improvement encouraged by her super-judgmental ex-stepbrother.
A cast of endearing and adorable characters, all dressed in some of the finest 90s fashions, help turn this loose adaptation of Jane Austen’s Emma into a colourful, feel-good comedy classic. The late Brittany Murphy, Stacey Dash and Paul Rudd are amongst those providing Silverstone with support, although nobody delivers the iconic, ‘As if!’ quite like Alicia!
Jonbenet Blonde (of Sink the Pink) will set the 90s mood with a live DJ set from 19.00.
