Breakdown:
Role Name | Gender | Ethnicity | Age Range | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
CHILD JENNY | Female | Asian | 9-15 | A quirky, idiosyncratic and expressive little girl. Jenny has an irrepressible spirit. She makes the most of her latchkey life - filling her time alone with creative dedication to learning her dance for her father. She has personality. She has the inner thread of an artist. |
TYESHA | Female | African American | 9-15 | An spirited, lively African American child. She’s also a bit guarded. She’s observant - paying close attention to the world around her, waiting for something that will surprise her, interest her. She’s lonely, but won’t quite admit it. She’s a latchkey kid too, daughter of a single mother. |
ADULT JENNY | Female | Asian | 25-30 | A warm, friendly, adult - Jenny now photographs the artists she wishes she could be. She’s not creatively stagnant though, using her photography to capture the expressiveness she once freely released as a child. She’s still quirky, dresses uniquely, and has a quick, generous wit. |
APPA | Male | Asian | 35-45 | Appa is a quiet, kind Korean man - thoroughly tired from long days as a delivery driver. He loves Jenny, but life and the burdens of work and single-fatherhood have turned him quieter, more subdued. He lives between cultures, a somewhat isolated man, who nonetheless fiercely loves his daughter, although he’s not sure of the best way to express his love. |
