Description of Cassie Ferguson:

Cassie is an outstanding dancer with star quality who has experienced great disappointments. She used to have an affair with Zach. Was a chorus dancer moved on to major roles and nowcan't get work. Needs to be a good allrounder, solo dance, solo singing and character actress with great emotion. Needs to match Zach in age as couple. Script mentions she is 32 although this is flexble pending cast overall age.
