What's it like in the Atlanta acting scene?

Question

I just recently moved to Atlanta, GA. I am an actor from Oregon and I was wondering if there were any actors that are part of the scene here wouldn't mind letting me know where/how the best way to get started here is. Where can I find auditions and casting calls etc? Who's a good agency?

Answer 1

Jillian is right.  Atlanta is one of the best places to become established as an actor. It sure beats the heck out of Oregon.

Since you are not a real actor, but an aspiring one, you will need to take classes and get some on stage experience in Atlanta.  If you were a real actor you would know how to find the things you ask about.  I give free advice to aspiring actors as a way of paying back to the art for my success.

Answer 2

atlanta rocks!
