Books & Books movie premiere: Disney's Radio Rebel and author Danielle Joseph -- Coral Gables

Start: Feb 19 2012 6:00 pm

Kids, put on your fancy party duds to walk the bookstore’s red carpet for Books & Books’ movie premiere party for Radio Rebel.

The Books & Books “paparazzi” will take your photo, so be camera-ready as the stars come out tonight!

Then take your V.I.P. seat for our special Radio Rebel screening...

South Florida’s own Danielle Joseph will tell us how Disney Channel and MarVista Entertainment’s movie Radio Rebel grew out of her novel, Shrinking Violet. She’ll answer your questions and even tell you about her new pals – the cast!

Debby Ryan stars as shy 17-year old Tara, whose secret life begins with harmless podcasts from the privacy of her bedroom. But, her smooth talking on-air personality, Radio Rebel, couldn’t be more unlike Tara. And when her alter ego gains in popularity, Tara is given a shot at hosting her own show on her stepdad’s radio station, but decides to keep her true identity a secret. Even her BFF Audrey (Sarena Parmar) doesn’t know at first. Giving voice to all kids - the popular and oppressed alike - at her high school and beyond, Radio Rebel soon attracts the unwanted attention of her school’s principal, who desperately wants to uncover Radio Rebel’s real identity so that she can expel her from school. As if that wasn’t enough, popular mean girl Stacy (Merritt Patterson) is coming between Tara and cute boy Gavin (Adam DiMarco.)
