Sixteen-year-old Isabel “Belly” Conklin has been taking some serious losses. Her grades are slipping. She is no longer the captain of her high school volleyball team.

Each concert lasts over three hours, and the 44-song setlist takes the audience through each of Swift’s 10 eras, or album cycles. Any audience member would be captivated by her performance, filled with theatrics,
