    I know that in order to be a successful actor you HAVE to be able to cope with your fair share of rejection - it comes with the territory. Thing is, it still sucks - big time. Particularly when you get great feedback from the room (e.g. a recall or an...

    Non union and equity PRINCIPAL auditions

    What's the etiquette here? As a non union actor can I go to an equity principal audition and possibly be seen? Or are they specifically for emc and equity actors? Confusion on the dos and donts of epas, and I'm perfect for the production.

    Monologue, mimic source or improvise?

    Too old?

    Hey all- all I’ve ever wanted was to be an actor. Right after highschool I got an agent and started auditioning. This went on for years and I would always audition and I never really got big roles. Then I took a break and worked in other creative industries...
