Where do people find auditions for House on Fox?

Question

I am a rising actress and I really want to be on the Fov TV show House.

Answer 1

For that one you absolutely need an agent. Those auditions get listed in the Breakdowns and only pro agents and managers (are supposed to) have access to those.
You can always try actorsaccess.com, sometimes if they're looking for something VERY specific mainstream shows will post the info there. (ie a piccolo playing set of female twins who are exactly 5' tall. Must be brunette with green eyes. No bigger than size 4!)

If you haven't already done the prerequisite work (training, build your resume, etc.) then you need to accomplish that then try getting an agent. Make sure you network with other actors and even your teachers and anyone you can to see what connections you can make and if anyone will recommend you to their agent. Always make sure you are sending your headshot, resume & cover letter to legit agents. You can start with SAG franchised agencies and maybe cross reference with Ross Reports if you're willing to pay for that. It has valuable info on agencies to help you submit to the right ones at the right time and help you avoid sending to ones that are not accepting submissions at this time.

good luck,

Well, if you don't have an agent, you will just have to send in your resume and headshot to the casting director of the show. Only send this once, and expect a wait, as it may take a while before they need your type. A postcard after 4-6 months to remind them and show them that you are working is a good idea. As you should know by now this is a fickle business and there are many routes. Don't obsess too much about one television show or film or play. Just find work whenever you can and sooner or later someone will take notice and you will start getting the kind of parts you are looking for. Also, if you aren't union yet, you need to concentrate on getting your union cards right now and be saving up for the fees(which are about $1000-$1500 each for just the initiation fee). If you aren't union right now it is best to take advantage of that and work on small jobs to build experience and a comfort level on a set or on a stage. I know you probably don't want to hear all of this but it is how things are. You will do fine if you truly love this business.
