The seventh officially licensed ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' chapter book of a series of books by G. M. Berrow, and part of the overall Franchise/MyLittlePonyGeneration4 universe.

Princess Celestia places Discord on a super-secret friendship mission, to join the Ponyville Players Spring Musical, with the promise of returning one of his past valuables if he succeeds. Determined to get his property back, Discord wastes no time in accepting the mission, much to the unease of the natives of Ponyville.

!!'''This book provides examples of:'''
* BullyingADragon: [[spoiler: Noteworthy and Martingale deliberately try to get Discord ostracized in hopes he'll leave Ponyville alone forever. It doesn't take more than a moment's thought to realise why this is a foolish idea.]]

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: The "special something" Celestia has promised to reunite Discord with if he succeeds his task? [[spoiler: His long-lost pet clownfish, Quincy.]]
* NotMeThisTime: Discord finds himself in the unusual position of sincerely protesting that the various weird things happening to the production genuinely aren't his fault.
* ShoutOut: Naturally, the book is packed full of musical and actor references.
** Ponyfied versions of ''The Sound of Music'', ''Les Miserables'' and ''Hairspray'' are referenced.
** Cheerilee's audition entails a ponyfied version of ''Girls Just Want TO Have Fun" by Cyndi Lauper.
** Discord auditions with a parody of ''Singin' In The Rain''.
