Surviving Actors provides events throughtout the year to help actors sustain themselves in a notoriously difficult profession. The convention will fall into three categories - develop, create and sustain. We aim to provide opportunities from valuable companies that fall into these key areas, all of which provide different options for professional actors.

Attendees are given the chance to DEVELOP their career by meeting photographers, show-reel companies and other industry-related professionals, all of which provide services to progress an actor's career. Actors will also meet companies who provide additional training for professional actors in order to refresh, focus and develop their craft.

A key part of the convention is helping actors SUSTAIN themselves in between jobs- there will be a forum for promotional companies, teaching agencies and other companies who employ actors for regular but flexible well paid work that is useful in between acting jobs.

Surviving actors will also CREATE the opportunity for actors to meet others looking to produce independent projects and small theatre companies recruiting actors. Exciting and inspirational seminars will occur throughout the day and are completely free to attend.

The Surviving Actors convention is not only completely free for actors to attend but is a unique opportunity for professional actors to grow and survive in their exciting profession.
