How to Find Acting Auditions

from wikiHow - The How to Manual That You Can Edit
If you want to be an actress or singer the first thing is you have to audition for a play. Here's how you have to find auditions or casting calls.

Steps

1. Hire an agent or manager. An agent or manager can get some auditions for you. If you hire an agent, after getting your job you have to pay your agent 10% of your salary. If you hire a manager, then you have to pay them 15%. To get an agent, look at the 'Backstage' newspaper.
2. If you don't have an agent or manager, then try out some casting calls. You can find them in your local newspapers, websites, TV, radios and elsewhere.
3. Create your account on some websites like www.exploretalent.com, www.laauditions.com or www.actoraccess.com. At first go to the sites, sign up and post your head shots. Maybe, you can get a contract!
4. Contact your local film office.
5. Read the 'Backstage' and 'Variety' Newspapers.
