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

George
A marvelous character role. He takes the lead on "Three Is A Magic Number" and "Just A Bill." Casting 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.

Dori
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.
