Hey I just auditioned for FAME, and I was wondering....how big are the four teachers roles? Does one share more stage time than the rest?

Miss Esther Sherman — A passionate & strict English teacher.

Mr. Myers — The laid back drama teacher.

Ms. Greta Bell — A dance teacher.

I would say Sherman and Bell are the biggest...they share a song together.

Sherman is definately the largest teacher role with two songs. Shienkopf is hysterical though!

Did this show for over 2 years in the UK and always felt sorry for the guys playing Mr Myers(Drama Teacher) and Mr Shienkopf(Music Teacher) as they really Didn't get that much to do and they got no songs.

Ms bell gets a few scenes and sings the duet The Teachers Argument with miss Sherman.

Miss Sherman sings The Teachers Argument with Miss Bell and gets the solo song These Are My Children a really nice gospel/soul ballad

Im pretty sure the 2 male teachers dont have more than 20 lines each.

Myers is in the opening song(Hard Work)/Teachers Lounge/and the Cant Keep It Down scene and the graduation song Bring On Tomorrow.

Mr Shienkopf is in the opening song(Hard Work)/Teachers Lounge/a couple of small music class scenes with Goody,Lambchops and Scholomo and the graduation song Bring On Tomorrow.

All the teachers come out at the very end of the finale song Fame with the taxi for the final pose

Hope that helps
