| Betty Rizzo | Female. Leader of the Pink Ladies; tough, sarcastic and outspoken but vulnerable. | Dialogue & monologue. | Betty Rizzo |
| Frenchy | Female. A dreamer; good-natured but not too smart, she is heavily made up, fussy about her appearance, particularly her hair. She can't wait to finish high school so she can be a beautician. | Dialogue with Marty only. Reads "Girl" lines. | Marty & Frenchy |
| Marty | Female. The 'beauty' of the Pink Ladies; pretty and looks older than the other girls, but betrays her real age when she opens her mouth. She tries to act sophisticated. | Dialogue with "Girl" only. | Marty & Frenchy |
| Jan | Female. Funny, loud, compulsive eater and awkward member of the Pink Ladies. Loud and pushy with the girls, but shy with boys. | Dialogue with Rodger only. | Jan & Roger |
| Doody | Male. The youngest of the guys; small, boyish and open, with a disarming smile and a hero- worshipping attitude towards the other guys. He also plays the guitar. | Dialogue with Kenickie reading Sonny's lines. | Kenickie & Sonny |
| Kenickie | Male. The second in command of the T-Birds; tough-looking, tattooed, surly and avoids any show of softness. He has an offbeat sense of humour. | Dialogue with Sonny only. | Kenickie & Sonny |

| Patty Simcox | Female. A typical cheerleader; attractive, athletic, sure-of-herself, but can be given to bursts of disconcerting enthusiasm. She's a bit of a pain and unpopular with the Pink Ladies, and can twirl a baton. | Monologue only. | Patty Simcox |
| Teen Angel | Male. Frenchy's suave and slick guardian angel, who encourages her to stay in school. | Singing only, no dialogue |
