Rite of Passage

Book, Music, and Lyrics by Alex Ngo

Alex is currently working on an original coming-of-age comedy called Rite of Passage. When gay teen, Quinn, realizes he’s the only virgin among his LGBT peers, he sets out on a mission to lose his virginity before leaving for college the next day. Complicating matters is his conservative Christian mother who has secretly made a deal with a demon to use Quinn as a virgin sacrifice.

Reexamining the teen sex comedy from a gay male perspective, Rite of Passage infuses the genre with fantasy horror elements and a pop rock score, exploring issues of identity, community, and the concept of virginity itself.
