What’s it about?
Teen comedy with heart, soul and sausage kings of Chicago.
High-school hero, the quick witted and charming Ferris Bueller takes his girlfriend Sloane and tightly-wound best friend Cameron out of school for a day of truancy, on one last adventure before school ends and life catches up.
​
Hot on their heels is Ferris’ old adversary and school Principle, Ed Rooney, who will stop at nothing to catch Ferris and destroy his life.
A tale of friendship, courage and being the best version of yourself.
“Oh, he's very popular Ed. The sportos, the motorheads, geeks, sluts, bloods, wastoids, dweebies, dickheads - they all adore him. They think he's a righteous dude.”
