Acting Associates
In the absence of anything about the company, we assume that Acting
Associates is an actors agency. The first page lists all actors/actresses
represented, and each has a page with full CV and a photo.
The Acting Website
A big directory of information for actors, supported by the National
Youth Theatre. There are lists of agents of all kinds, services of
all kinds, resources and news.
Amber Personal Management
An actor's agency based in Manchester. there are detailsof the actors
they have on their books, where they can be seen currently, information
about the agency itself and other bits and pieces.
Blackburn Sachs
Associates
An agency representing actors and TV presenters. There are listings
of its clients and some details about the agency's principals.
British Cinema Greats
A site which does just what it says, looks at the greats of British
cinema, including biographies of some of our greatest screen actors.
Casting Call Pro
A free service to actors, agents and casting professionals. It offers
the ability to upload CV, showreels and headshots, email alerts when
appropriate jobs come up and a forum.
The Casting Studio
Describes itself as "a central location for promoting and identifying
talent for UK television, commercials, film, theatre and modelling."
Not a casting agency.
CastNet UK
An online casting directory but with a difference: instead of simply
putting actors' CVs online, it claims to be pro-active and to send
information to casting directors etc. The cost is £6.50 a week.
Creative Artists Management
News of what their artists are doing (Anita Dobson is one), a page
of "artists of the month", an enquiry form, and contact details.
Trevor Ingman
An actor's agent, based in London. There's a page for actors, one
for actresses and another on how to contact the agency.
SMS Showcall
This used to be Brit Stars but is now SMS Showcall, offering to text
details of auditions to your mobile phone.
Spotlight on the Web
Everyone in the business knows Spotlight, the casting director's bible.
To use Spotlight Interactive you have to be a subscriber, for which
you pay £150 a year.
English
Actors at the Turn of the Twentieth Century
Pictures of a selection of some forty or so English actors and actresses
from the late 19th/early 20th century.
Theatre Lives
A musical theatre fan site for people in Connecticut, so far covering
William Gillette, Sarah Bernhardt, Lily Langtry and Lea Salonga. Visitors
are asked to send in details of their favourite performers. Two sections
(About and the Message Board) have nothing there at the moment.
Voiceovers.co.uk
Another casting site, specialising - obviously! - in voiceovers. There's a searchable database (not a huge number of people, however), and a New Talent section. Each artist has a RealAudio file, part of his/her showreel.
The
Who's Who of Stage Musicals
A site from Musical Stages magazine. An online database of performers
in musicals, giving, for each, details of shows, films, TV, recordings
etc. and, usually, a picture. A very useful site.
The World of Acting
Primarily a discussion forum for actors across the world, but it is
based in Britain and so has a UK bias. There are also some articles
on acting. It went online in January 2005 so there isn't a great deal
there yet but it could be a good resource if people use it.
