* SchoolFestival: The play is performed as part of Sunshine Academy's cultural festival.
* SchoolPlay: The characters perform a musical called "Jewel Side Story".
* ShoutOut: The musical, "Jewel Side Story", is a reference to ''Theatre/WestSideStory''. It even begins with a song involving the characters repeatedly snapping their fingers.
* TheShowMustGoOn: All sorts of things go wrong during the play - Garnet has to use the bathroom mid-play and is replaced by Ruby, characters keep cutting in with personal problems instead of acting in-character, there's a malfunction in the wardrobe department, and a plot hole is created when 10 pages of the script are skipped - and yet it somehow goes surprisingly well until the stage actually gets destroyed at the end of the episode.

* BananaPeel: One is thrown onto the stage during a singing part with Mikage and Ruby, and predictably Mikage doesn't pay attention and slips on it.
