Casting the child actor

Natalie (producer) has arranged for our group to go to the performing arts school Stage 84 in Bradford, whereby we attended 2 acting classes for children aged between 7-11. We made note of a few boys, who were confident, upbeat and dedicated to their acting. 

However, after location scouting, we found that Rose's family friend's son Fletcher, who lives in Holmfirth, would be well suited for the part. He is energetic and joyful, thus we are convinced that he will perform realistically in the role of the young boy. 

Additionally, because the boy knows Rose, he will be more confident and as he lives in Holmfirth, he will have his mum present with him whilst we are filming. Additionally, Fletcher and Tony both have blue eyes, which is useful as they will be representing the same character.
