    NYC Theatre gigs for actors with a 9-5?

    Hey ya’ll! I’m an actor in NYC who works a hybrid tech 9-5, so I’m in office 3 days a week. It’s allowed me to live less financial stress and I’m repped with a theatrical manager/agent (no commercial rn) and will just take the day off if I work a co-star, and...

    I don’t want to be an Actor anymore

    I never thought those words would ever come out of my mouth, it’s what I studied for 7 years and I was lucky to get an agent very shorty after I graduated. But after almost a year of auditions and self tapes with very little bookings, and almost none of the...

    Hi guys, so I’ve got a few screen credits now and I’m looking to get an agent. My problem is, I’m an international student in Australia so my legal work hours are limited to 24hours per week. Now because of that, I’m thinking that it just doesn’t make sense...
