Director Brian Robbins is now casting for the made-for-television film on the Disney Channel about the true story of Bret Kaiser, a detention officer at a Arizona’s Tent City jail, who created a Talent show contest for the inmates that helped create hope and focus through the power of music for the inmates and thousands who heard the story.

The film is mostly based off the article in the L.A. Weekly written by Joshuah Bearman who spotlighted Kaiser, a former heavy-metal front man. The “Inmate Idle Singing Con-Test” even attracted famous rock idle Alice Cooper to be a guest Judge!

Casting Directors are currently seeking talent for all featured roles, extras and body doubles to play inmates and prison guards. Tattoo’s are a plus and applicants should look weathered, beaten-down/rough looking guys.

Please include at least one photo that is up to date when applying .Talent should have a prepared resume and comp card for auditions. Auditions may have talent read parts depending on the versatility of the part you are auditioning for. If you are in the area and would love to audition, please send in your headshot to the casting department. Make sure all of your information is clear!

I know that if i ever get chosen in a movie that I’m always going to give my best at trying every day i listen to songs and then sing along in the car or my room or even sometimes in side in my classroom and other times i pretend I’m a famous actor and singer or sometimes i act by myself in my bedroom i know that there are a thousand people in the world that have the same dream as i do and every ones dream can come true but still I’m never going to stop trying,i hope you are interested in me and email me back.

  26. My New Audition-

    Hello, my name is Miri Joy Guerin. I really would love acting on a T.V show! I would love to be a great worker, and have watched every Disney Channel show since, forever! I am ten years old and have brown hair with very faded highlights I got during the beginning of summer. My family are fully supported, but will not drive me to be an extra. So maybe, maybe, maybe, can I be a main? Or a supporting main? Please? Well I hope you see this, seeing that so many people are trying I have a slight chance. But I am willing to put everything into that little chance. I am fully confident and could work on a show and focus on education, I am not slow. I am actually pretty quick with learning. I have been in school plays and played the cook in ‘Jack an the Beanstalk’ also I was three parts in Wizards Of Oz. I was the witches main flying monkey assistant and also was a Emerald City Citizen and a munchkin. I am not fully experienced like a lot of these wonderful people are. But I want to support my family, my mom not having a steady job and my step-dad’s paycheck keep lowers. My real dad had died when I was 13 months or around there and my mom met my step dad when I was three. We really need the money and here is a description about myself:

    Medium Colored Brown Eyes
    Dark Brown Hair
    57 Inches Tall

    I hope you look this over and contact me or my dad at:
