Hi Michael,
If you're speaking of the character in the popular tv series, Glee, it's
been reported that persons with disability were auditioned for various
roles. Remember, the characters have to be able to sing, dance, or both.
They did have a story arc featuring a young woman with disability. She won a
spot during her run on the Glee Project which showcased a group of young
people vying for story arcs on the series.
In the film, Music Within, actors with disability were also auditioned, but
the actor chosen to play opposite the lead, was chosen on his acting ability
generally, not specifically because he could pull off playing the role of a
person with living with cerebral palsy.
As for myself, I don't feel that I deserve any special consideration
'because' I happen to live with disability. Ultimately, we work with the
talents we have and strive to develop others to complete the package that we
call ME.
I've long established myself as a freelance writer and have contributed to a
publication here in Canada which has published yet another of my life
lessons in their August issue - it won't be available online until September
when its paper print run has concluded. Once the online link is available,
I'll share with you all. In the interim, here are two earlier essays. Enjoy!
:)
