MIKE
The Leader

Prides himself on being involved in many different activities as well as his friend’s social lives. Upon meeting Jane, he tries to help her in finding her unique identity. In time, he develops feelings for her.

AMY

BRAD

SHANNON
The Honor Student

MARTY
The Movie Buff

Obsessed with movies and television. Has his friends act in his films over the years and one day wants to be a famous director. Always has a video camera with him and documents nearly everything. Eventually develops a crush on his longtime childhood friend, Maddie.

MADDIE
The Sweetheart

Genuinely sweet and kind, she’s the girl who knows everyone and everyone loves her. She is constantly being asked out by nearly every guy at school but she seems not to be interested in anyone until she meets Joel, much to the dismay of Marty.

EDDIE
The Rock Star

Very upbeat, aspiring rock star, always trying new trends and searching for his “look”. Dotes on his girlfriend, Jasmine, who becomes the inspiration to a song he writes and performs at the school’s Winter Formal. Upon realizing she has been unfaithful, he spends the rest of the school year withdrawn and sullen.

TIFFANY
The Band Girl

Originally from Tennessee, she is bubbly and always smiling. The high school band consumes her life, almost to a fault. She and her friend, Heather, are more observers in the chaos that ensues within the group.

HEATHER
The Artist

Heather is an artist, a poet, and a romantic. She dates older guys, hangs out at coffee houses, and tries to help her friends see the futility of their high school lives. Although different in personality, she is good friends with Tiffany.

JOEL
The Journalist

Gifted writer, editor of the school paper and yearbook. Has a great sense of humor and helps his friend, Marty, with his movies. Joel never gets involved with the drama in the group but inadvertently becomes a gossip target when Maddie shows interest in him.

BILLY
The Nerd

A “typical” geek of the ‘80s. Loves computers and Star Trek. Is always picked on by Stefani and her entourage. Billy’s not part of the P-Building crew but is friends with Marty.

STEFANI
The Cheerleader

Stuck-up, rude, and the most popular girl in school. She’s attention starved and puts down all those that pose a threat to her and her status. Stefani has an entourage of girls who idolize and follow her blindly. Both Billy and Jane are main targets of Stefani’s hostility.

JASMINE
The Cosmo Girl

The poster girl for late 80’s fashion. Shallow and self-involved. Dates Eddie because he’s in a band and is popular. Eventually starts seeing a more popular guy and doesn’t bother to tell Eddie.

TRENT and DAVE

Laid back, stereotypical Californian-wannabe-surfer/skater types. Their main purpose in life is to mack-out on convenience store snacks, scope hot babes, and rock out (not necessarily in that order). During this final year, their secret wish to be a rap duo is revealed.

ENSEMBLE
(4-12+ Males/Females)

Students at the high school. Some speaking roles. All musical numbers (vocals and choreography)
