Alien Stage

After aliens invaded Earth, humans have become the aliens' pets, slaves, and entertainment. Humans are raised in a facility where they are trained to sing and are experimented upon, in preparation for the Alien Stage competition, in which aliens pit them against each other in a series of music battles. The winner advances to the next 'round', while the loser is killed on stage for the audience to watch.^[1][2]
