(4) YA It's 1959 and Casey desperately wants to be a dancer--despite her total lack of training. She auditions for the School of American Ballet but instead receives a scholarship to the Martha Graham School of Contemporary Dance, where she thrives. Casey's overdone country-girl naiveté and her improbable opportunity strain belief, but her dedication rings true. Contrasts between novice dancer Casey and the aging Graham add poignancy.
