BYJULUBBOWN BTAvrwium jbrowDeo*.homecofluiLjk*t You'd think it would be easy for teen actors to play high schoolers, but it's actually a challenge. That's evident from the John Glenn Theatrical Guild produc­ tion of "Fame," telling the story of a group of teens at a high school for the performing arts in New York City. Director/drama teacher Sheri Smith said playing teens is more of a challenge. "It's something they can cre­ ate, whereas they already are high schoolers," she said of play­ ing older characters. The play's so close to their own lives, Smith said. One classroom scene required her to remind them to talk and act like kids. That view was seconded by Corrine Garrett, an assistant director who plays a teacher. "Actually, I think it's harder to play someone your own age." She's found a tendency to turn her back and not project.
