i'm sure you can find an agent in the city but there really aren't many here in nj!. i've been having this same question myself!. look on the sag website and they have sag franchised agencies in nyc!. there are a lot of them so maybe you can just do some research and start submitting!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Do your own work!. Do a web search for Talent Agents in NJ or in your city!. Agents do not make you an actor, you have to be an actor to get an agent!. Better have lots of experience in plays and have taken some professional classes and built a good resume before contacting an agent!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

go onto any agencies website, and most of them have offices in NYC!. They shouldn't ask for money up-front!. if they do, they are stealing form you and are not reliable!. Agent get a minimum of 10% of your paycheck per job!. Most of them tell you to take a head-shot and make a resume, and here is a link to a website that helps you make one!. http://actinginfo!.blogspot!.com/2007/11/p!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
