Typical! My agent has just phoned with a CASTING on the same day as my recruitment thingy with RoleplayUK. Talk about sod’s law! I’ve not been with my agent long (Ruby McAlistair Personal Management. Knows her stuff but hard as nails) so I’m trying to get on her good side.
Six years after leaving drama school and I’m finally accepting that doing the odd telly or theatre job here and there is not going to pay the mortgage!
A few of my actor mates have managed to get into corporate roleplay, which I was a bit skeptical about at first (I didn’t know what it entailed to be honest) but actually, now I understand it a bit better, it sounds like just what I need. It’s a chance to use my acting skills with decent pay and enough flexibility to keep going to auditions to pursue the showbiz stuff as well.
