I AM a 16 year old girl who LOVES to ACT does any one no any auditions in manchester that might be held in?

Question

SUMMER??????????????????????????????????...

Answer 1

1. Training. Acting/Dancing/Singing classes are a good start. You start to get some talent under your belt, and grow your confidence. Plus, if after about a year of classes if you realize you really don't like it, it'll be easier for you to back out.

2. Experience. Do Community Theater, act in your school play, get in some student films, etc. You'll want to do as many productions as possible to have a great resume.

3. Agent. http://www.soyouwanna.com/site/syws/tale...

As you can see, you're going to need to spend at least two years (At the VERY least. Usually you'll need three to four.) building yourself up. You'll want to make sure this is what you really want to do before you start getting into this.

Also, you should NEVER have to pay for anything when it comes to getting an agent. If an agent tells you to take special classes from them or a website asks for a credit card number, that is a red flag that it is a scam. Some of the big scammers out there are: John Robert Powers, Millie Lewis, John Casablancas, Proscout, Model Look, Barbizon.

Hope this helps and I wish you a fantastic career. =)

Have you thought of joining a local theatre group?  You could get plenty of experience doing what you love.

Answer 3

no but good luck finding a place!

Answer 4

No, but a good place to start is to head to tourist information and local libraries, they'll have details on theatre companies and groups in the area.

Also, just go to the local theatres, or call them and say you're interested in getting involved over the summer and ask if they have any opportunities, and if not, if they know of any groups that are running. A lot of the theatres have their own summer workshops or amateur or youth theatre groups, you jjust have to ask around.

As for actual auditions, if you're refering to professional shows, its highly unlikely you'll find any of that. A lot of companies run on an invite to audition basis, or only advertise auditions through agencies. Which would mean being registered and having a portfolio of work, which in turn would mean having a background of experience in the industry. Even then, you'd lilely be up against more experienced people. Not saying you couldn't out perform them, but the odds would weigh against you. Also consider that in professional shows the director has a set idea of who each character is, so you need to understand the part you want to audition for before going, if, say you were going for the role of Juliet in Romeo and Juliet, then unless you look young and petite and innocent, but also extremely beautiful, you probably wouldn't get looked at twice, unless the director is looking for something very different. But generally thats in the audition details.

But Im off on a tangent. Look for amateur groups you can get involved with long term. Amateur groups thrive on new blood, and keeping the interest of people to be involved. It can be very hard to generate that genuine interest. Also if you're set on being involved in theatre and acting as a career choice, then you will need a lot of hands on experience in shows, so get involved any way you can.

Answer 5

Answer 6

Check out National Youth Theatre in London. It's been a good many moons since I did it (I was 17... oof, like a decade ago!!). I have a feeling there's a very good youth theatre up north somewhere too and Manchester is ringing a bell... but it's been so many years... I really don't remember. If you're considering acting as a career as I was, definitely check out NYT. They hold auditions throughout the UK. Very prestigious. And geared towards the profession.
