Lyrics by Jacques Levy
Music by Steve Margoshes
Title Song "Fame" written by Dean Pitchford and Michael Gore
Directed by Tim Harris
Choreographed by Esther Selk
Produced by Susan Buchs
Set during the last years of New
York City's celebrated High School for the Performing Arts on 46th
Street (1980-1984), “Fame—The Musical” is bittersweet but ultimately
inspiring story of a diverse group of students as they commit to four
years of grueling artistic and academic work. With candor, humor and
insight, the show explores the issues that confront many young people
today: issues of prejudice, identity, self-worth, literacy, sexuality,
substance abuse and perseverance.
