 Dessaint's passion began with dance\, evolved into singing\, spread to the
  theater (classical repertory to one-woman shows)\, broke into musicals\, 
 tested herself on the street\, exposed herself to the camera\, then return
 ed to classrooms to entertain kids. Her ambition is to share a line\, a no
