ALAN Review, Fall 2007 by Lee, Jennifer
Dramarama by E. Lockhart Fiction/Friendship/Theatre Hyperion Books for Children, 2007, 311 pp., $15.99 ISBN: 978-07868-3815-8
Sadye and Demi are two teenagers who are tired of their non-razzle-dazzle lives in Brenton, Ohio, and decide to apply to the Wildewood Academy for the Performing Arts Summer Institute, run by a well-known Broadway director. Both are fans of Broadway musicals, and they adore Liza Minnelli.
Their summer is one of friendship, jealousy, and new love. From "Cats" to "Guys and Dolls," this book tells of the ups and downs of their summer, their new relationships, and just how hard the kids must work to be the actors they want to become in order to leave boring old Ohio behind them once and for all.
