Have you studied acting? There are many Talent Agencies in New York City. You need a strong theatre resume with, preferably, performances at regional theaters. You don't just "get" an agent in NYC. Agents go to the theatre searching for new talent. When you are in a production mail your photo-postcard to the talent agents informing them of your performance. Actors perform in showcases to be seen by agents.

If you are new to this, don't expect agents to be beating down your door. Be prepared to take more acting classes when you arrive in NYC.

Best bet is to submit your headshot and resume to a number of casting and theatrical agencies. It would be a good idea to contact them first and ask if and when they are accepting submissions; some only do that twice a year.

Be warned, any agency that asks for money up front is a scam; agents make their money by taking a percentage of your earnings. Because of that, they're only going to take someone whom they think can earn them money, so you may get a lot of rejections.

ln the meantime, keep taking classes, do local theatre, grab any opportunity to perform or participate in theatre to learn as much as you can.

they do no longer look to be. they're performing like themselves. there's no set act that a particular race owns. How ever any in a race acts, then if this is their race, then this is how they're performing. Likewise, there is greater to a man or woman by using skill of epidermis colour, and do to the blend in races many could have brains and personalities from a number of races in lots a similar way we see blacks with some white traits in specific factors of the physique, or some whites with some Asian traits in specific factors of the physique, etc. many situations we get caught in stereotypical questioning and categorizing everyone in one way and in a feeling all of us act like others via fact maximum individuals mirror the ecosystem we've been raised, and so there rather isn't any defined act that belongs to a particular race. all of us stay in the rustic and maximum individuals dress a similar way, the place a similar shoes, circulate to college maximum of years, circulate to artwork, sleep on a mattress with a pillow, consume cereal in the morning, etc. All races try this looking on what united states you reside. there's no longer something incorrect the way you act, only as long as this isn't any longer harming others, and inspite of the incontrovertible fact that a man or woman(s) is performing, by skill of definition, despite race they're, then that's what they're performing like. And it is likewise a innovations subject. I say they're performing like themselves; perhaps its the "blacks" that are performing like those "whites".
