wanted: young actors/actresses, 11-15 years
Sat, 17 Apr 2004, 02:29 pmWanted: young actors/actresses, 11-15 years old.
Your frustration at the lack of paid theatre and film work is understandable, but honestly posting more and more one paragraph statements requesting others contact you is not going to help, rather it will just conyinue to clutter up the board. Acting is a profession where actively hunting out auditions is necessary to gain experience and roles. Simply saying "I need a job -please help" after about 15 other people in the same situation have done so is only going to waste your time and others who boter to check these messages.
Why don't you kids do something proactive and join a drama class, create your own shows or call around personally to some of perths amateur companies who can almost always use an extra hand for sewing on buttons or painting the props. That way you might actually gain some contacts who WILL be able to help you find a role, or at least an audition in the near future.
Just my two cents.
Thou mangled swag-bellied lout!

Hi All,
Troy Dodds here - i'm the managing director of a Sydney based PR company, and have worked with a number of young performers over the years.
It's true, some of them are absolutely shocking (unfortunately for you Coloney, you're one of them) and aren't willing to have a real go at things.
But, without trying to throw credit my way, I have launched the careers of two theatre performers in particular, one of whom was 16 when we started working together. Her passion and commitment for what she wanted never waivered and could never be doubted.
The advice from Anna is right - get out there and do what you can, get off your backside and you'll be surprised at exactly what does happen.
