[JESSE URCHIN] FEMALE, Caucasian 10 to 12 years old, SHOULD BE AT LEAST A LITTLE OVERWEIGHT ORAWKWARD IN SOME WAY AND HAVE SOME KNOWLEDGE OF BALLET. Jesse is Corrine Urchin's daughter, is aseemingly unassuming girl and an unlikely ballerina. She has a passion for dance, she's thrilled when she's acceptedto the Battleboro School for Young Dancers, but outraged to discover that the video tape sent to the school was that of her mother, a former ballet dancer. To make matters worse, innocent and naïve Jesse is relegated to a specialeducation class based simply on her physique. Incensed by this atrociousness, Jesse plots her revenge, becomingtenacious and ambitious to a fault. She heeds the lesson her mother has taught her throughout her childhood, "I ama warrior", and approaches her revenge with that mentality. Further galvanized upon learning that the school will beholding auditions for the coveted role of Sleeping Beauty in the ballet of the same name, Jesse is determined to landthe plum role, no matter what it takes...LEAD (1)
