DARLINGTON residents with no previous acting experience have the chance to be cast in a new film.

Producers are searching for extras who will appear in a film about Type 1 Diabetes. 

No casting experience is necessary but potential extras "must be comfortable dancing in front of a camera and act professional".

Another catch is that the extras must be aged over 18 and look no older than 30-years-old. 

The filming for the nightclub scene will take place at Harvey Late Bar, on Houndgate, on Monday, October 4, between 11am-11pm. 

Extras are cast on a voluntary basis, however food is provided. 

The casting company added: "You'll be filming with a familiar face and first class professional crew.

"The short film is called Pricks and is a story about Type 1 Diabetes." 

Limited spaces are available, for more information email: pricksnightclub@gmail.com.
