Question:

Does having an agent help you in the dance world?

and do you have to be a certain hight to be a ballerina?

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: If you are talking about show business - most likely. If you are talking about art (ballet) - probably no. You just need to be good and go to auditions. Just like when applying for any other jobs - you might use an agent, or you can just send out your resumes and go to interviews. As for height, different companies have different preferences. Generally, 5'2-5'6 with long legs is good, but some companies prefer taller.
