Your child loves performing but you don’t know where to start…
Should they have an agent?
Which training is actually worth paying for?
How much should you be spending?
How do professional auditions work?
What happens if they get a job?
How do you protect them in a professional environment?
And what are their realistic chances of building a career?
For parents outside the industry, it can feel like everyone else knows the rules.
Showing Up exists to change that.
We give parents clear, practical and honest advice about supporting a child in the performing arts — so you can make informed decisions about their training, opportunities and future.
