The convention falls into three categories – develop, create and sustain. It gives actors the chance to develop their career through meetings, industry chats, training talks and by getting in touch with relevant companies who have stands at the event.  Surviving Actors creates the opportunity for actors to meet others looking to produce independent projects and small theatre companies recruiting actors. And finally, attendees also get an opportunity to look at sustaining a career – for the in between times – through forums for promotional companies, teaching agencies and other companies who employ actors for regular but flexible well paid work.

And all the usual suspects will be there including Spotlight, PCR, Casting Networks, Casting Call Pro, Michael Wharley photography, Actors Studio, Stagecoach, Funny Women etc. The list is endless.
