I've looked at the site and it seems to be on the level. It looks like the guy who runs the site has also written a book on acting, which has received some good reviews on amazon.com. He also shows up on IMDb, so he certainly does have experience in the industry. The biggest indicator that an agency is fraudulent is if they ask for money. Any real talent agency will not ask for money up front. This site seems to be popular, free, and run by a well-known person, so everything looks to be for real. Beware of sites that promise you jobs or auditions if you pay them: those are the real scams! Best of luck in your auditions!

no it is true

they seem ok, but 1. they are not a real talent agent, they are a clearing house for auditions. 2. You had better be a very experienced and well trained actor if you attend any of the auditons they list (except for extras). and if you are under 18, a parent will have to go with you to any audition you attend.
