it would be good to go to a drama school and to get an agent sorry i don't know any but you might have to go to a drama school away from where you live if you want the best for you. but if you are smart and can do well at college then get your A levels so you've always got a back up performing arts is a hard thing to get into i'm in the exact same position as you i wanted to go to a performing arts college nut ma dad made me change my mind and get my Alevels but still do lessons outside of college and i am going to do performing arts at college as well so i get abit of both then study an academic ceree at uni while trying to get into the theatre so keep your options open all the time. it hurts like hell letting go of your dream even a little but you have to, to get the most you can out of life. prepare to be rejected alot as well. i know i haven't exactly answered your question but i thought you should know the options. when you get a agent you should pay any think upfront ligament agents take 10% of your earnings not payed upfront. try to find some open auditions yourself so you get some experience because most of performing comes from performance not from what you learn in class. good luck with your cereer

If you are serious about acting and becoming a professional then training is the way to go.

If you are at least 5'9" and serious about modeling you really need to move to London, where most of the big agencies are located Top agencies are - Storm, IMG, Select, Models 1, Next, M and P, Cape, Premier
