Noah believes his sapphire eyes to be the making of a fine actor; with a toned body from repetative hours of dance and drama rehearsels, he's never afraid to flaunt what he's worked so hard to achieve!
Parents: Noah's parents died when he was very young, too young to remember. However, living with his Uncle, he hit 16 and was contacted by his social worker who revealed to him that his parents had come into some wealth before they died; this money that funded his trip to the Drama Academy.
Siblings: Noah has one older brother named Phillip who is currently travelling around the world - now in Canada.
Major, Minor, Props? Minor, hoping to work up to major.
Prior Drama Experience: Noah had never been interested in drama of any sort when younger. However, when he hit the awkard age of 15 he felt almost seduced by the stage. First lurking backstage, he finally plucked up the courage to audition for "My Fair Lady" - scoring one of the main roles as Professor Higgins. After the buzz from his first performance and shining reviews, he went on to play Danny in "Grease", The Phantom of the Opera, and Eddy in "Blood Brothers".
Personality: Before becoming interested in acting, Noah had been the shy type around most people - the loss of parental intake not helping him in any way. But once he hit the stage, his friends and family saw almost an instant change in him. He was no longer shy and meek, rather the opposite; making new friends and never afraid to put himself out for others.
On first meeting Noah, most people would think him nothing but arrogant, and ignorant of other people's feelings. But this is only because the young man has never been shown how to interact intimately with other people. But, persevere with him, and you will see that he is a gentle soul at heart, willing to help you out in most awkward situations.
A natural flirt; Noah is willing to use all his manly powers to get somewhere in life. His charm both nausiating and flattering any woman will find it hard to say no to him. Too cheeky for his own good - but still keeping his head firmly above water, Noah will still try to use his intelligence to prevail.
History: Since Noah's parent's died when he was rather young, he was taken away from his world of comfort and stability and transported into a world of independance forced upon him. His Uncle not the kindest of people, Noah was forced to fend for himself - turning him quieter each day untill one day the stage called to him, presenting him with the talent of acting.
Hailing from Scotland, England - Noah travelled Britain and Europe, mostly playing in small theatres such as the Maidstone Hazlit Theatre, and working his way up to the Phoenix Theatre, where he made fine work of the role of Eddy in Blood Brothers.
However, feeling it was not exactly practical to go out to the theatres without proper experience, his friend turned him onto the Drama Academy - and promised him he would do well should he enroll there. Also agreeing with this, Noah decided it would be wise to have a piece of paper which told the world that he, Noah Irons, was a damn fine actor.
Other: Noah would love to save up enough money to find more of his family, supposedly scattered across the world. Roles he feels he was born to play are Mickey from Blood Brothers, The Phantom from Phantom of the Opera, and Sweeney Todd.

Looks:
Parents: Adopted by a gay couple, Mark and Spencer Conner
Siblings: none
Major, Minor, Props? Major
Prior Drama Experience has been enrolled in a drama school since she was 10, but is looking to learn something different.
Personality Bubbly and bright, Jyra seems like a normal ditzy blonde, until you speak to her. Her knowledge of the theatre and famous playwrites amazes most. She is interested in all areas of stage production, director, stage manager, props and acting.
History: Jyra's biological father ran off once he discovered her mother was pregnant, but she was determined to have the child and was prepared to become a single mother if she needed to. However there were major complications and she died on the operating table. She saw a glimpse of the screaming child and uttered one word before her death:
Jyra.
And so the hospital named the tiny baby Jyra and hated parting with the sweet blonde haired, blue eyed child. Jyra only stayed in adoption for a few weeks before Mark and Spencer came to adopt her. She had no memory of her real mother until she reached eight and realised that having two daddies wasn't normal. She was honest and confronted them while driving from school one day.
Mark and Spencer had decided that they would tell Jyra the truth when she was old enough, and since she had asked, they told her the details of her beginning.
Jyra cried for days after finding out the truth, but she soon realised that Mark and Spencer loved her. However she had one request, a photo of her biological mother.
She recieved this on her 9th birthday.
After doing some investigating on her own she discovered her mother was a wannabe actress who threw away her dreams when she discovered she was pregnant, and enrolled Jyra into a drama school. After some debate, Mark and Spencer granted the mothers request and allowed Jyra to attend the school. her natural talent was astounding, and she also heard some amazing stories about her mother. But she soon realised that there was only so much she could learn from this old teacher of her mothers and so bid them farewell just before her 16th birthday. By then she had been in numerous plays and the students and staff were sad to see her go. Mark found this drama acadamy and showed it to Jyra.

He's always been teased because of his interest and love of ballet. He tries to laugh about it and shrug it off but it hurts more than he is willing to say. It's just something else he hides.
History: Nick knows nothing about his dad only that he wasn't there when Kristine needed him the most. She doesn't like to talk about it though sometimes she'll say something about his personality or looks. From this remarks Nick has drawn up what he thinks his Dad is like.... A dream man of sorts.
His Mom is a succesful business woman who wants the best for her son. When he was 4 Kristine enrolled him into a ballet class for little people. When the 6 weeks of that initial class was over Nick begged to continue. He has been dancing now for over 13 years and wouldn't give it up for the world. He is at the drama school to further his dance career and learn something new.
Audition
Nick checked his suitcase one last time making sure that both of his leotards were packed along with his cappezios. He slid the laptop that had been a birthday present from Mum into its case and settled onto the edge of the bed. He looked around the room he had spent his entire life in a little sadly. It was wierd leaving his home behind and traveling across the country to attend a new school. Which meant new people. He rested his blonde head in his hands. This was always the problem. Around kids he had known for a long time, even a couple months he was fine. But just walking up to people and going, "Hey I'm Nick.", was difficult for him. Especially girls. He smirked a little at that thought. At least he was going to drama school to study and not to find a date. He ran his hand over the dark blue fabric of his comforter and lifted his suitcase and laptop bag off the bed. "Well... Here goes nothing."
Age: 17

Name: Jake Matheson
Age: 18
Looks: He stands about 5 ft 8 and has dark hair and brown eyes. He has muscular arms and legs due to his fencing and sword fighting tactics on stage
Parents: William and Melissa Matheson
Siblings: Patricia(22)
Major, Minor, Props? Major and minor
Prior Drama Experience: As a child he served as an extra for various plays but had little or no speaking lines. His first major role was as Tiny Tim in ‘A Christmas Carol’ with his local theatre group. He then went on to play Charlie in ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’. In high school, he continued his acting skills by playing the role of Puck in ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’, George Gibb in ‘Our Town’ and Tom in ‘The Glass Menagerie’. In community theatre he played the role of Mercutio in ‘Romeo and Juliet’ and Jonathan Harker in ‘Dracula’. He has also been active in the Renaissance Festival as well since he was a child intermingling with the street actors. When he was old enough he joined the Renaissance Academy where he learned all etiquette, dialects and history of the Renaissance Period which he incorporated into his eventual roles as one of the major actors for the festival. He recently played the crown prince at the festival and has helped to demonstrate fighting techniques from the period involving swords and lances.
Personality: When it comes to his acting, Jake takes himself quite seriously. He has been known to have a little romance with his leading ladies which has led to more than a few broken hearts. He likes to play the field but has not as of yet found a leading lady to steal his heart. He loves to horseback ride and has even trained with the jousters at the Renaissance Festival. He uses his charm and good looks many times to get his way when it comes to the ladies. If he has one weakness it would have to be his vanity and playboy side
History: Jake was born in North Carolina in the city of Raleigh. It was hard for him growing up as the younger brother to his sister, Patricia but he managed to adjust. As children they would often dress up and perform plays they had read and even wrote some of their own. It seemed as if acting was in both of their blood. He soon auditioned for children’s roles in local theatre where he caught the acting bug. After doing some Shakespeare in high school, he was convinced to audition for the Renaissance Festival which soon became his trademark in Raleigh. Patricia pursued her career as an actress after high school by moving to New York and auditioning for small time roles. Jake decided that he was not going to go that route and instead go to an academy to improve his skills before heading for the ‘big time’. He hopes through his attendance at ‘Over the Rainbow Dramatic Academy’ that he will improve his skills as well as learn new ones. And…of course to maybe break a few hearts as well.

Name: Rosalind Schuster (nickname: Rose)
Age: 17
Looks: She stands about 5 ft 6 and has long, dark hair and blue eyes
Parents: David and Gillian Schuster
Siblings: Kevin(24)
Major, Minor, Props?: seamstress/costumer, minor
Prior Drama Experience: She has played minor children’s roles in her community theatre such as a royal child in The King and I and an orphan in ‘Annie’. She played one major role and that was Mary Lennox in The Secret Garden. In high school, she belonged to the drama group but took minor roles in various plays and musicals so that she could devote most of her time to making costumes
Personality: She is very outgoing and friendly with people. Once you get to know her, she can be a very loyal and trusted friend. Her friends have said that with her looks she belongs more on the stage then in back of it doing costumes but she doesn’t care. In her mind, the costumes on the stage are even more important than the people playing them. She feels that she can express herself more through her costumes than through acting or singing. As far as boyfriends go? Well, she has had some dates and such but nothing real serious. She doesn’t want a serious relationship that will tie her down from doing what she really wants. She also doesn’t wish to have someone possessive of her and is quite honest on that when it comes to guys interested in her. She does enjoy watching all aspects of the performing arts though and sometimes takes mental notes when it comes to costumes
History: Rosalind was born and raised in historical Pennsylvania. She was introduced to theatre when on a fluke her mother had her audition for a local production of The King and I as one of the royal children. She surprisngly enjoyed the production and went on to play an orphan in ‘Annie’. Her singing voice as a child was not that strong but strong enough to be in children’s chorus. Then when she was still in elementary school, her parents got her a vocal and drama coach and she landed the role of Mary Lennox in ‘The Secret Garden’. Even though her singing and acting were very good, Rosalind didn’t completely feel that the stage was where she belonged. Then, her mother taught her how to sew and she began to make costumes for various plays that she and her friends put on. It was when Rosalind saw her costumes on display for the neighborhood to see that she truly felt her calling.
In high school, she continued to take sewing lessons and assisted to create costumes for various plays and musicals. She did the same in her community theatre as well as taking minor roles to let her know that the money her parents spent on acting and singing didn’t go to waste. But she truly felt that her costumes were the best way to express her true talent. Her parents agreed to let her apply to Over the Rainbow Dramatic Academy to improve her skills even more. With her background in theatre, she was able to pass through the acting and singing part but knows that it is her resume for costumes that truly sets her apart. She hopes by attending the academy she can learn more about making costumes as well as learning about other production aspects as well.
