'Best Summer Ever' Serves As Template For Disability Representation in Hollywood Antonio Ferme, provided by FacebookTwitterEmail The opening musical number in “Best Summer Ever” ends with a kiss between protagonists Sage (Shannon DeVido) and Tony (Rickey Wilson Jr.), who fall in love at a sleepaway dance camp in Vermont. Executive producer Will Halby said he shared a realization with his crew while filming this scene. “I turned to our directors and said, ‘I don’t think that this is something that has ever been put on film before,’” Halby said. What’s unprecedented here is that Sage is in a wheelchair and is played by an actress who herself is in a wheelchair. In fact, it’s the first musical to star people with disabilities and the first SAG-registered movie in which more than half the cast and crew are disabled.
