Answer 1

hello. you could go to an acting school, then ask for a form to sign up on the acency. this way you will recieve auditions all the time x

Answer 2

You can look up an agent in the phone book or google it, but agents tend not to take on clients unless they have seen them perform and that is usually done through being invited to a public performance. The public performance is usually arranged by your drama school and is known as a showcase to which a number of agents are invited.

Another way is to audition for any and all youth roles that you see in the 'Stage' or other Theatrical publication and if you get the part then invite an agent.

Agents are notoriously difficult to get and are usually only interested in someone who has proven themselves.

You should also get involved with any local Youth Theatre and again when performing invite an agent.

Hope this helps

Answer 3

if you want an agent i will suggest look up the yellow pages (if you have one in Irland) and look under A

or you can search on www.google.ie for info.

Answer 4

the only way of getting an agent is by being part of a big production such as a stage musical or tv show and the only way of getting a part in 1 of these is by having a great portfolio and even then most of them wont cast you without an agent so its really a big vicious circle and the most likely way of ever getting an agent is by luck, being in the right place at the right time
