Are there any professional theatre auditions for children in Sydney?
First off, check out local auditions at theatre.asn.au, or read up on Aussietheatre.com. If you’re keen, pay for a membership at QuietOnSet.com.au or Artshub.com.au; they list heaps of auditions every day around Australia. Another good site is screenhub.com.au. My best advice is to visit the first link, head to the FAQ section, and read about finding agents in Australia, how to find work, etc. It also has a lot of stuff about dodgy Aussie agents to avoid. There’s heaps of free info there for new actors, and is practically the best place you can find info for emerging actors. There’s also a huge list of companies that you can search by suburb. Visit www.alliance.org.au, the actor’s union for Australia and join. If you don’t have experience don’t expect a professional role or an agent. I suggest you use the next years to build up experience, and then try applying for a local uni course. Trust me, there are too many actors out there and not enough roles.
