Hello,

I am doing a research assignment on child actors. If you could possibly answer these questions and email them to me it would be so much help. Please note: Your email address and name will be kept confidentail. The only other person who may see this information is my teacher. For more info please email at - jassy_jase@yahoo.com

Q1:
Do you believe its right for mothers to push their children, some as young as 2 into modeling and talent agency's?

Q2:
At what age do you belive children should be allowed to work in the arts industry?

Q3:
Do you think it's right for theatre companies to use children to rope in profit. Eg. Annie, Oliver, Sound of Music.

Q4:
Should we wipe out child performing all together in television/theatre. Allowing only children from 15 onwards to enter this field?

Q5:
In your own opinion, what is a normal childhood?


Thank you for your time,

Jason Triggs.

Hi,
sorry i'm not going answer your questions, becaue i figure you will have already finished your project. The reason for my email, is that i am currently doing my thesis on children in theatre and am looking for examples of plays with children (not musicals). Just wondering if you found any? Or If you have any other information you would be able to pass on.
thankyou
my return email is nessydoor@hotmail.com
