Fame

Hundreds of teenagers line up for a handful of seats at New York's High School of Performing Arts, and nobody in the hallway can say who will be chosen. Kevin Tancharoen follows four years of auditions, rehearsals and crushes, with Jenny Garrison (Kay Panabaker) and Denise Dupree (Naturi Naughton) among the new arrivals. It's a story about wanting to be a singer, actor or dancer badly enough to put up with a lot of doubt.
