Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
I wouldn't worry about having a LOT on your resume!. Having a few good pieces, if you kept the scripts and have journals or reflective papers, is much better than having a lot of really messy pieces all thrown together at the end!. If you are looking for experience!.!.!.look into doing more than just acting!. Go around to local theaters and ask if they need lighting help, set building help, anything!.!.!.!.get your name out there!. Let people know that you are willing to help (for free---people will come find you for SURE!) and hopefully your phone will start ringing!. Even working concerts or festivals counts as something! Good luck and fill that resume with some quality stuff!Www@QuestionHome@Com
