“Casey and the Octopus” is a story of a remarkable young man named Casey Wright. He has been battling cancer since he was six months old. At 19 years old, he has undergone 10 different surgeries and survived a brain tumour. Now, he's a spokesperson and champion for others in the fight against childhood cancer. This new theatre production show is executive produced by Danny Virtue of The Virtue Foundation and Jim Crescenzo and written by Ben Ratner.

The play was made possible by executive producer Danny Virtue, a family friend and Hollywood North stunt coordinator who has worked on multiple locally-shot film and TV projects. Virtue has helped share Wright’s story for years through his Danny Virtue Foundation, and came through with the funds necessary to make Wright’s play a reality.
