Hello all, I'm writing a dissertation at university about untrained actors in the profession. I was hoping that you could take some time to help me out. What I'd like to know is a summary of your average day, plus: Are you represented and what's your relationship with your agent like? How do you meet directors, casting agents etc? Do you take classes? What are your ambitions? Where do you see yourself in 5 years time? Are you interested in working in the theatre? Do you think there is a discernable difference between trained (i.e. full time accredited drama school training) and untrained actors, and what are the advantages/disadvantages of either? Your answers and additional comments would be very much appreciated and anonymous in my dissertation. I look forward to hearing from you!
