15 year old requires acting job

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?

I don't believe Bruce was really condemning people simply for being on the internet....otherwise I'd probably feel justifiably miffed! I see his point, rather, as comparing those who actively seek opportunities to work and learn (this can include finding information on websites) with those who simply say 'I am here. I want to act. Give me what I want." As Crispy says, this approach is generally useless because it generates no sympathy from the readers here. (....btw Crispy, I reckon my 2 cents worth is now up in the several hundreds of dollars worth!).

As you said, na, it would be great if we were all helping each other...and I think you'll find there is actually a good deal of evidence of this in this very thread, as well as many others. But you can understand why tolerance levels are low when the approaches are SO repetitive and not at all thought through...and when the answers ARE here in this thread but seem to fall on deaf ears. I rarely respond to this particular thread anymore because it now takes several minutes to load!

The suggestion of a new help page is a good one, and has been considered before....I'm sure it will eventuate but it's largely a matter of finding the time, energy and manpower to do it.

Cheers
Craig
