Children castings - where to find it?

Tinuel

Hi all,
We would like to take our 11 year old daughter to a casting (tv, drama, musical or advertisement).

She is really talented and always gets the main roles at school and all other clubs she attends. Lots of people have also commented on how good in acting she is.

She loves acting/drama and has asked us since she was 6 years old.
We now feel that she is old enough to "try her luck" and not let her education suffer.

Doing a google search, I see lots of websites, mostly Americans and others that look like scams.

Would you be able to recommend the best routes to apply for a casting? And what are the good websites to do so?

Many thanks :o:o:o

Try looking on the notapushymum forums, it's a useful resource.

Try the Stage magazine, it has an online version too.

The best route is to find your child an agent, and look into joining Spotlight.

There are stage schools which meet on saturdays mostly and often they go to those to look for child actors.

I sound vague, but it's because I only know of it through someone else.
