    I just recently launched my Performing Artist page

    I’ve been anxious about it lately, as I’m not used to being as aggressive with marketing myself. To help get over that, I decided at the beginning of the year to figure out what all I want my page to be. I finally figured it out and I’m proud to say I...

    Is it cheaper to hire Australian actors?

    I saw online something about American productions filming in Canada because it’s cheaper (knew about that one) but I also saw someone say they cast Australians because it’s cheaper. Is that true? If it is, why?

    Joining Actra

    What is the best way to go about joining Actra. I know how to get in, as you need 3 professional credits. Is their any easier way or can you just do one principal role and get it? Seems like it is easier for U.S. actors to join SAG than it is for us Canadian...

    Is Nicole Kidman a terrible actress?

    The only film that I thought she was good in was *The Hours* where she played **Virginia Woolf** (for what she deserved her Oscar for IMO). Other than that I haven't been too or all that impressed with anything she's done or acted in. This critic for *The...
