Thanks for helpful reply, could I ask another question? I have contacted a few new agents, in the paperwork they want DS spotlight pin. Once they are on spotlught they can see his present agent, is that ok? If they have his name they can look him up on spotlight anyway and so will see his current a...

I would speak to his agent. If his agent thinks that it would be worthwhile casting directors coming to watch then hopefully they will be in a better position to invite them to come along. Your agent is your direct link to the professional world - I would consider if their job to be trying to promot...

My gut reaction was Brown and Mills... However its probably not that simple. Have you had a discussion with each about what type of work they see your DD being submitted for? Have you had the opportunity to tell them what she is interested in? Do you know how many girls of a similar age and look eac...

I totally agree with the BYMT needing to keep all children busy and motivated if you are paying out that kind of money. There are plenty of things they could be working on I'm sure. As for the Spirit/Stagebox question I think you have to remember that first and foremost they are businesses. Whilst w...

Donated yesterday. Good luck with the fundraising effort. Thanks for the work on this site

You'll find plenty of fans of both. They offer something very similar. However Spirit is a weekly class in London whereas the London Stagebox teams only meet in school holidays for week long workshops. So it depends which model works better for you? Stagebox have also had their auditions for next ye...

Most agencies would be fine with it, but just let them know what you are applying for so the dates don't clash with submissions they are making. Worth checking with your agent first though as sometimes they may also be submitting for the same job - not all agencies would, but some of them definitely...

My DD lived in a cast house for SoR last year. She generally enjoyed the experience!! The house parents were all lovely, very caring and approachable and on the whole the other children were fine - but that is obviously always going to depend on who else is there! We did not pay for anything at all ...

I agree regarding MT auditions. All MT auditions for West End or national tours are open castings that do not require an agent - however at 12, your DD is absolute top end age wise for these auditions regardless of her height and development. Some shows will keep auditioning until 13 and the odd sho...

I suspect it will be sing an age appropriate song from musical theatre acapella, and perhaps a monologue for first round. Some dance will be required but maybe not until later rounds. I am only making assumptions based on plenty of other MT auditions though! Sometimes they run more of a workshop sty...

Think it will be rehearsals from sometime in September and then it's usually an initial 6 month performance contract, which would be from when it opens - 23rd October. But there are no specific dates yet that I've seen.

https://filmsonashoestring.com/child-actors/ This is a good place to start. Plenty of choice of good reputable agencies named in this article. You will most probably need to apply to several, and not all will currently have their books open, but will be able to tell you when they are next accepting ...

The castings on mandy and starnow would not be the same as those on Spotlight usually. They are often for lower budget projects and you would rarely get anything for major tv/film on those sites. But great for experience and building a CV/showreel if the material is good. The only overlap really wou...

To be honest I don't know anything about this agency. However having had a good look around their website I would have several questions I would want answers to before proceeding. Firstly do they pretty much take anyone who applies? There seems to be no audition/selection process which means that th...

There are sometimes roles in touring productions that have local children in for the part of the run close to where you live. London based shows will rarely take out of London children as they need housing and educating which obviously comes at a cost. If you have a London base and are happy to orga...
