(But more emphasis on"sweet and fragile" – we shouldn't see it coming.) Pop/rock voice. Must be able to handle significant Dance/Cheerleading. PRINCIPALSTEVEN: Male, Caucasian; A handsome, slightly vapid puppy-dog, begins the show as Campbell's boyfriend. Easily manipulated. Means well. Good singer with great Dancing/Cheerleading skills. PRINCIPAL
DANIELLE: Female, African-American; The"Queen Bee" of Jackson High School, regal, dominating, complicated. Is head of a talented dance crew. Has a wicked sense of humor behind a composed mask.
