I am an older (50 years old) actor looking to break in, but if you are not in the union (SAG or AFTRA or Actors Equity) and don't have an agent, you are not allowed to audition.
However, you are not allowed to join a union unless you have been in union productions, and no agent will even speak to me. Not even for 5 minutes, as I have requested many times.
This is a very unfair system as keeping people from trying out is a main function of these people.
Does any one know how to get an agent to even see you? Please don't tell me cliche things like "Do something to get noticed". I have tried various things to get attention and even had the police called once.
