About the Job
[JOANNA BACA] Female, 18 TO PLAY 16, Hispanic/Latina. Joanna is naturally a rule-follower but has recently begun testing her limits. Unable to process her mother’s death, she seeks escape in rebellion; ditching school, drinking, and spending more time with her bold new friend Adriana. Joanna is awkward, introspective, and searching for identity, caught between childhood innocence and adult responsibility. When tragedy strikes, she’s torn between loyalty to her family and the truth that could destroy them and must learn how to listen to her own moral compass and intuition. LEAD
