In society they simply don’t wear a shirt everyday that says I’m autistic nor do they tell everyone I’m autistic! So instead they try to fit in. (Owning being autistic simply does not work in the professional field)ACTING THEIR ENTIRE LIVES! So the answer is THEY ARE THE BEST BY FAR!

Starting acting at 34, well, started actually in comic opera but now rehearsing in spoken drama. It wasn’t until I was recognised by mental health services as being ADHD/Autistic (at 33/34) that I came to respect my own abilities. I completely resonate with the masking theory, and I feel it allows for the formation of quite a powerful toolbox in acting to recognise and analyse in real time how people act ‘in the wild’ of life. So being able to draw on that at will comes quite naturally. Just getting used to learning lines without music haha. But I have long had the ability and joy in memorising poetry so once I find the cadences and rhythm it works much like the music as a mental point of reference. Sad to hear of autistic persons being turned down for neurotypical roles

Your Journey Sounds Amazing, I am so glad you are doing what you love to do. How old are you now if you don't mind me asking?

[@csmatthew]

thanks :) Still 35, but got two comic operas in the bag and rehearsing a spoken drama at present. It's all amateur of course, but really helps with meeting like-minded people (Neurotypicals are definitely in the minority in my theatre groups), and gives me a sense of motivation, identity, and achievement...which being long term unemployed I would have a hard time finding, but that's another topic (although clearly related to late-diagnosis Autism)@@MaxiAspie

It's funny you say you'd like to play a villain, because I said the same thing when I was asked which part I would want to play if I ever got a chance to be in a movie. I said the villain, too, because they're usually way more interesting! LOL!

I agree, Big fan of the WWE and all the Villains are the best
