For all people who want to act

I've seen this site a couple of times, and I'd just like to make a comment.

Whether you want to believe it or not, I'm a successful actor.

Everyone here who's asking for a role: Stop!

Everybody who looks at your messages are just kids - there's no casting directors or agents out there looking at your messages.

Believe me; you're not going to get any work by posting here.

Go to any theatre you've heard of, and do lots and lots of shows.

Submit a resume to every theatre you know of, and make yourself known!

The truth is: 99% of all actors actually get paid/professional work.

It's unfortunately the truth, even it is sad.

But if you believe in yourselves, and you really believe you have what it takes, then go for it.

I just wanted to make a little comment to yourself and a few other people who are getting tired of kids requesting acting information/roles etc.

This is a theatre site - when your just starting to realise that acting is what you want to do, as a hobby or whatever, why shouldnt they be able to interact with people their age, proffesional and non-proffesional for advice?

When your just starting out - it's true - you have no idea how to do it, so for all those kids out there wanting advice, keep it coming - I'm sure there are nice enough people here willing to help you out.

If I was putting on a production / doing a short film, this is the first place I would advertise for auditions etc, like so many other people do - (Hence - the 'audition" section)
