Any members who are currently looking for an agent to represent them in theatre, TV commercials, TV series and/or film are invited to apply for representation with my agency (Sydney Creative Management). We have been in operation since 2006 and currently have around 40 clients on the books. I am looking for actors from a diverse range of backgrounds and levels of experience. You must be willing to invest time, money and energy into your career (eg headshots, training, networking etc) and to treat it like a business. Agency fees are 10% commission only (no joining or admin fees). NOTE: A small monthly management fee may apply for some clients who need additional training, guidance and mentorship in order to be able to earn income (and agency commissions) as a professional actor. To apply, please email me your headshot, CV and a brief cover letter/email along with a link to your self tape and/or showreel material (see training videos for advice on how to compile your 'package' correctly). The email address is info@sydneycm.com.au Successful applicants will be invited to attend a free 30 minute one on one Zoom interview/strategy session to help me learn more about you and see if it's the right fit for us to work together to secure paid acting roles. For more information about the agency please go to www.sydneycm.com.au. I look forward to hearing from many of you online soon!

Hello, my name is Marisol. I am from the United States, in the New England area. I hope to grow as an actress by gaining hands-on experience, deepening my understanding of the industry, booking roles, and ultimately signing with an agent who believes in my potential. I also enjoy singing and dancing.
