Following the success of our stage play "The Life of Reilly", a true story about an autistic young person, we have secured funding to make a short film based on the play.

Reilly's real-life parents appeared on "This Morning" with Phil and Holly last week, after a Facebook post from Reilly's father went viral. As a result we are now in a position to make an amazing film with a great budget!

We are seeking actors for a variety of roles, to play Reilly, growing up from age 5 to age 30.

Other supporting roles are available. Autistic actors are welcome to audition.

Auditions in January. Rehearsals on weekends throughout Spring term. Production over Easter in Newcastle, from April 3rd-16th 2018

Check out the blog from the real Reilly's parents HERE, for a better understanding of the real story behind the play.

The full cast breakdown and fees are on Starnow, HERE

CVs and showreels to casting@act2cam.com

We are fully insured and DBS checked to work with young people. We will arrange child performer licences and chaperones in-house.

Please note, the part of Reilly in the film can be played either by a male or female actor.

Any questions, please ask them here!

Best wishes,

Stephen Woods
Director
ACT 2 CAM

I'd love to put ds up for this (he's a 13 year old autistic actor) but I think its just too far to travel.
