Our Talent Agency for kids and teens
We work with casting agents across ireland
We offer a full talent agency service for all of our students. Casting agents often contact us in search of talent for television, film, theatre and commercial work. If the role suits your child, we will put them forward for consideration and act as their agent.
We organise casting workshops throughout term-time and during midterm courses with professional actors on audition technique, self-taping, accents, and offer guidance to help students develop their performance CVs and showreels.
1-1 coaching is available in preparation for castings, as well as auditions for conservatoires and for university courses such as the Lir Academy, Gaiety School of Acting, TU Dublin Conservatoire, RADA, LAMDA and more.
What do We offer as a Talent Agent?
When it comes to castings, we can arrange chaperones to accompany your child to in-person auditions and shoots as needed. We will handle all of the interactions with casting directors, contract negotiations, child licensing etc. to make the process easier and to ensure you or your child’s best interests are taken care of.
It is free for students to be part of the agency and to be put forward for jobs. Up to 10% may be charged on fees received by students to cover the admin required during any booked jobs. Remember, never sign up to an agent or an audition that charges an up front fee! Reputable agencies charge between 10 and 20% only on income earned.
What Types of Casting Opportunities are there?
Students in our casting agency for kids have worked on podcasts, children’s animations, TV series, featured and extra roles in films, in professional theatre productions as well as a variety of commercial advertisements. Most recently we had several students partaking in Toy Show the Musical and taking leading and supporting roles in a short film funded by Screen Ireland.
Students from the School have performed with:
The Abbey Theatre, The Gate Theatre, The Olympia Theatre, The Gaiety Theatre, Project Arts Centre, R.T.E. Radio and Television, TG4, BBC, Radio 4, Royal Court Theatre, London, and numerous films and television series such as The Tudors and The Vikings.
