Question: Okay So I Need Help!?
Okay, I want to act and dance really bad!. I've been in several plays and musicals at my old high school, and now doing the same in college!. So I have a feel for it all!. My question is, how would I find an agent for dancing and/or acting!?

also, my friend wants to do the same, except he hasn't had all of the experience I've had and I almost got him out of his shyness now (thanks God!) So what could he do to persue the same dream!? I really want to help him out also!.

Can some good fellow help me out ples!? Thank ya!Www@QuestionHome@Com

It depends on what area you want to be in and in what capacity you want to act/dance!. Television!? Movies!? Broadway!? Theatre!? Los Angeles is a great place for TV commercials, hip hop videos etc!. and movies!. New York for theatre and broadway!. Figure out what exactly you want to do, then go live in one of these cities!. You can look online for auditions and agents!. Check out answers4dancers!.com It has a lot of good advice!. You can also sign up at lacasting!.com to get audition info emailed to you (there is a fee unless you have an agent who signs you up)!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Expose yourself (not literally) by acting and dancing in any show or gig you can and just hope that somebody is out there scouting!.

Go to fairs, call people in advertisements, ask your college for national/travel-involved opportunities, and, if you feel like you want to, advertise online!.

Just be careful!. Fame is hard to find, but following a dream should be performable!. If you find something online or over the phone that appears too good to be true, it most likely is!.

And hey, if you don't make it big-time, you could always teach or help others!. It's just as rewarding!Www@QuestionHome@Com
