Take a ride back to the 1980’s NYC where recent high school graduate, Nina Jacobs, is determined to make this summer her best ever. Bar hopping on the Upper East side with wealthy, privileged high schoolers like herself, Nina is an outsider. Jewish and not wealthy, she has a crush on the handsome Gardner Reed. The problem is so does every other girl. Loosely mirroring the Preppy Murder case, Weiner’s many ’80’s cultural references and events bring the time period to life.
