[ NELLIE MORRIS ]
she/her, transgender woman, Black or Afro-Latinx, 17. Nellie is the Washington Heights high school student who works behind the Empanada Loca counter after school and lives upstairs with her agoraphobic grandmother. Nellie is kind and confident and no-nonsense, and swiftly sets Dolores straight when Dolores unknowingly, with no malice, mischaracterizes Nellie with a slur. Once Dolores settles into life in the basement, Nellie grows fond of Dolores, and even becomes a surrogate younger sister. By the time murder and cannibalism are rampant around her, Nellie’s too distracted by her new romance with the landlord’s son to see it….SERIES REGULAR (23) NOTE: THOUGH THE CHARACTER IS IN HIGH SCHOOL, MUST BE LEGAL 18. PLEASE SUBMIT TRANSGENDER ACTORS.
Storyline: After 16 years in prison Dolores, caught in a bust with 50 pounds of her dealer-boyfriend’s weed, returns to her radically gentrified old neighborhood and sets up shop giving massages in the basement under her old stoner buddy’s dilapidated empanada shop…and before long becomes the unlikely Sweeney Todd of Washington Heights.
