Jesse Urchin: female, 10-15, must be at least a little bit
overweight, a seemingly unassuming girl and an unlikely ballerina, extremely
flexible, well-trained, with a passion for dance, thrilled when she's accepted
to the Battleboro School for Young Dancers, but outraged to discover that the
videotape sent to the school was that of her mother who is a former ballet
dancer, to make matters worse the innocent and naïve girl is relegated to a
special education class based simply on her physique, is incensed by this
atrociousness and plots her revenge, becoming tenacious and ambitious to a
fault, heeds the lesson her mother has taught her throughout her childhood ("I
am a warrior") and approaches her revenge with that mentality, further
galvanized upon learning that the school will be holding auditions for the
coveted role of Sleeping Beauty in the ballet of the same name, determined to
land the plum role no matter what it takes, LEAD.
