Based on my 40+ yrs experience in the performing arts, I knew it would be beneficial for the industry in NZ if there were a company who could source short term contract work for actors who are almost always trying to pay the bills between acting jobs.
I was on the board of Equity NZ, the actors union for over 12yrs and knew that over 95% of actors do not make a living from their acting income. ActionActors allows a number of actors to continue to pursue their dream. Because of the nature of surviving as an actor, many acquire a vast array of experience & skillsets in other industries.
They also bring their unique performance skillsets to other work, such as their ability to communicate with confidence.
In NZ numerous companies and organisations sponsor and support the performing arts. By hiring from ActionActors, ActionAmbassadors, or ActionHR, for your short term contract needs, you not only have the opportunity to have a fantastic and talented staff member on your team, if they are one of the many actors on our books, you also help support the future of the screen and performing arts industries in NZ.”
