Casting
Cindy Lou
Female - 17
Knows she is the prettiest girl at Springfield High. She knows she will be named Prom Queen and acts out against her best friend Betty Jean when things don’t go her way. Mezzo Soprano Belt— sings lead line on most songs.
Missy
Female - 17
The over-achiever of the group. Very controlled, very concerned that everything at the prom turns out wonderful and perfect. Head of the Prom Decorations Committee; and absolutely smitten with her music teacher. Her best friend is Suzy. Soprano— wide range, very high vocals and belts throughout the show.
Betty Jean
Female - 17
The class clown and tomboy, always vying for attention with Cindy Lou, her best friend. It’s also possible that Betty Jean wants to be with Cindy Lou herself, but just doesn’t even know what those feelings really are. Cindy Lou steals Betty Jean’s boyfriend away, which causes a lot of the friction at the prom. Alto with a strong low range.
Suzy
Female - 17
The happy-go-lucky and slightly ditzy blond one of the group, and best friends with Missy. Always smiling and giggling, nothing ever seems to bother Suzy. In love with the lighting operator, she is completely surprised when named prom queen. Mezzo Alto, with big belt. This role requires an excellent part singer and comedienne.
Patty
Female - 16
The reigning junior varsity super Chipmunk, and the de-facto leader of the Glee Club. She can sing any of the three parts assigned to the Glee Club.
The Glee Club
The rest of the Glee Club can be comprised of as many girls (and boys) as desired. Most of the story is told by the four leaders, with the Glee Club singing and dancing with them throughout.

2 Piano/Conductor Scores
A keyboard score that is a key part of the show’s actual orchestration. This score contains both vocal parts and a cue staff, which guides the conductor through the full orchestration by informing them when instruments enter the song, as well as providing specific part lines when necessary.
