To become a musical theatre actress (the narrowest of all theatrical careers), takes more than getting an agent. You are goint to need a solid musical theatre major at a really good school. Check out SUNY at Purchase. You are going to need voice and dancing lessons, and you are going to need lots of experience and luck! For more information, read my profile and write me at my aol address.

Well, of direction. Just be sufferer. Assuming it is a thoroughly official agent and you have performed a historical past examine on them and you have visible his/her purchasers record and understand that he has located books with one of the enormous publishing residences. Usually, an agent will ship you a record of prompt alterations. Be sufferer, considering that his different purchasers come earlier than you and he would be busy - if he is a official agent. You can ship him an electronic mail and allow him understand that you just wish to understand time expectancies so you do not force your self loopy ready at your electronic mail all day for his prompt alterations, and likewise considering that you do not wish to nag him each 2 mins. I've heard from a few released writers that it took them a couple of weeks to get a record of prompt alterations from their marketers. So that is common and also you''ll simply need to hurry up and wait. It's common that he may not provide you particular main points on the assembly. He'll write up a letter or electronic mail with all of the prompt alterations and ship it to you, and this would take greater than every week, regardless that for all we all know, he would have talked with you 3 days in the past and you are simply being unreasonably impatient. Now, you probably did take delivery of his present of illustration, proper? Just making certain, considering that there are plenty of scammers available in the market that look official if you do not' completely examine them out. You did signal an company contract OR he made it transparent that he needs to rep you AND you agreed? - there are nonetheless a couple of official company that do not paintings with a agreement. I'm simply asking considering that you are making it look like he met with you, did not present to symbolize you, however as an alternative mentioned he'd ship your manuscript off, in most cases to "scan the waters," earlier than signing you. This is a signal of a rip-off and there is a very recognized scammer who does this. But, I'm certain you are a capable creator who has performed her homework. Congrats at the presents of illustration. I'm jealous. :D wish to exchange me areas? You could have all my badly written manuscripts. Hahah.

NO...GET THEATRICAL WORK ON YOUR OWN. OR A TV COMMERCIAL. LOOK IN THE PAPER FOR CASTING CALLS. WHEN YOU GET WORK, THEN CALL AN AGENT.
