23 roles

TomMale7-18 y.o.All ethnicities

The idealistic young teacher and hero of our story. He is nervous about his first day of teaching, yet gradually becomes more at ease as the show continues. Cast a mature young performer who is amiable, likable, and charming. Tom doesn't sing a solo, so casting your best actor is a perfect choice.

George7Male7-18 y.o.All ethnicities

A marvelous character role. He takes the lead on "Three Is A Magic Number" and "Just A Bill." Cast a good singer and a great character actor. George in particular is a calming presence and excellent cheerleader for Tom. He is the romantic, and he is caring and in control.

DoriFemale7-18 y.o.All ethnicities

Takes the lead on "A Noun Is A Person, Place, Or Thing," "The Preamble" and "Elbow Room." This actress takes the lead on more songs than any other character, so she needs to be a strong singer who can lead the entire ensemble. She goofiest of the gang, often acting silly and being playful.

ShulieFemale7-18 y.o.All ethnicities

Sweet and genuine. She is featured in "Unpack Your Adjectives" and takes the lead on "Interplanet Janet." Cast a strong singer and likable character actor.

JoeMale7-18 y.o.All ethnicities

Definitely one cool kid. He's laid back and fun-loving. Cast a Joe who can deliver the great "Conjunction Junction" with the right growl.

DinaFemale7-18 y.o.All ethnicities

Mature, thoughtful, and grounded. Dina is featured in "Unpack Your Adjectives" and takes the lead on "Interjections." Your Dina should be a good, strong singer with an ability to sing harmony.

ElvisMale7-18 y.o.All ethnicities

A great role for a fantastic character actor. Make sure to cast a performer with a big personality that can embody the king of rock and roll!

JanetFemale7-18 y.o.All ethnicities

A good featured role for a great singer and actor with lots of personality! She leads "Interplanet Janet" with Shulie, so be sure to cast to actors who work well together.
