Plot Synopsis

A reinvention of the original 1980 hit film, the 21st-Cntury Fame follows a talented group of dancers, singers, actors, and artists over four years at the prestigious New York City High School of Performing Arts. In an incredibly competitive atmosphere, each student's passion will be put to the test and, in addition to their artistic goals, they have to deal with everything else that goes along with high school - including a busy schedule of schoolwork, tempestuous freindships and budding romances.

Time

 - Mary Pols

Screenrush Barometer:

'As it is, the years whip by far too quickly. "Already?" the woman behind me said plaintively when the words "Sophomore Year" flashed up on the screen. That's the joy of this Fame. Like the old ones, it convinces you that high school, if not life, should go on forever.'

New York Times

 - Andy Webster

Screenrush Barometer:

'while the movie, the feature debut of the choreographer and video director Kevin Tancharoen, suffers from a surfeit of flash, it nonetheless offers the undeniable power of young performers pursuing art at peak dexterity.'
