Autism: The Musical Airs On HBO

Tuesday March 18, 2008
Tricia Regan's Autism: The Musical premieres on HBO on March 25. Despite it's misleading title, this film smartly packages the shocking stats about the sharp rise in autism within the stories of five charming autistic kids participating in the Miracle Project, a workshop in which they create and perform a musical.

It will move and inspire you.

Read my review of Autism: The Musical and my interview with director Tricia Regan.

This disease already gets more than its share of attention. I know I won’t be watching; I couldn’t care less about “five charming autistic kids” and the noise they make.
