I promise this won't be another space-wasting post about how I'm a brilliantly talented 14-yr-old who wants a part in a movie. I am 14, though, and am looking to get an agent, for musical theatre in particular. I wanted to know whether the regular agents, who represent adults, would sign a teenager. I look older than I am and probably could not play a 14-yr-old if I tried, and if possible, would rather be represented by an agent that could get me work in the late teen age-bracket. I've researched the children's agents and they mainly seem to have the motto "we'll take all your money and put your kid in a commercial, but only if they're 10 and cute," of which I am neither. Any help with this would be much appreciated.

Get as involved as you can in theatre production, ameture ones! And you'll start to hang with the right crowd, who know you and know your talents.

Agents aren't going to take you too seriously at this age (believe me i know!). Get as much experience behind you as possible and see what happens!

Chooka's darling!
Don't give up!
