I am 15 years old and love acting, but have not been able to do much of it as of yet. I am wondering how I could get an acting role or if there were any spots available. I live in NSW, it would need to be within the state. Can any one help?

Hi Tegan. I'm Kia Groom and i'm looking for a job, too :) it doesn't even have to be acting, y'know, i'd take a nice paying job at subway or nightfill at my local supermarket.

Thing is, i'm as likely to get employed by Coles posting in this thread as I am to get someone emailing me and saying "Yo, Kia, we need you to be in X Y and Z production, when are you available?"

There's a section on this site for auditions - watch it, keep an eye out, and if there looks like being a production coming up which needs someone of your age etc etc, call and book an audition. It's not hard. Also, you might want to check out www.stormthestage.com - it's awhile off yet, but it doesn't hurt to get prepared early for STS 2005 :) I know i'm already looking at monologues.

You get nothing for nothing, unfortunately, so if the sum total of your passion is sitting behind a computer and posting on a theatre site in the vain hope someone will hand you employment on a silver platter well...

Good luck and all that jazz - as you can see by the eight zillion other posts of this vain, it's a tough business even at Perth-local-theatre level. But hey, if you get off your ass and put yourself out there, you never know, do you?
