Fan Casting Victorious

The series follows Tonio Vega, a teenage boy who is accepted into Hollywood Arts, a performing arts high school for talented teens. The show follows Tonio and his friends as he finds his place within Hollywood Arts, completing school projects that usually involve musical and theatrical performances, and overcoming unusual and absurd challenges. Other students at Hollywood Arts (and the students who make up Tonio's group of friends) include the musical prodigy Andrea Harris, the socially awkward Bobbie Shapiro and her ventriloquist dummy Lix, the sweet but dim-witted red-head Cole Valentine, the sarcastic and mean Jake West (who serves as Tonio's frenemy), Jake's beautiful down-to-earth girlfriend Becky Oliver, and Tonio's untalented and self-absorbed older brother Terry. Other characters include Eliza Sikowitz, the performing-arts teacher for Hollywood Arts; Lexa Alexander, the school's guidance counselor; and Sinda Van Cleef, an odd and often unsettling classmate that handles audiovisual.
