Is having one acting agent or many acting agents better? This is a tricky question with lots of answers. Though there are a number of answers, they are all right depending on the situation. You don’t want to have so many acting agents that you scare other acting agents away or get tied down to one acting agent that cannot get you enough work to survive. Let’s talk about the possibilities.


We all know that having a good acting agent is a very good thing. Though you can secure some work on your own, there is nothing like having a well connected and respected acting agent in your corner. This is the kind of acting agent that will know what is going on in the industry and be able to get you into an audition for some of the better jobs. This means that you may get a shot at national commercials or at guest roles in feature films. It generally takes time to build your credentials to a point where this type of acting agent will be interested in representing you. If you are lucky, this acting agent along with your talent will be able to get you enough of the right kind of work, so that you can make a comfortable living with that work alone.
