Most acting jobs are short term. Even experienced actors can find it hard to make a full-time living, and many people find they need to do some other part-time work to supplement their income. A survey way back in 2005 found that nearly half of those working in the UK performance industry earned less than £6,000 a year from the profession. Most jobs are based in large cities – close to theatre, concert, studio and audition venues. However, there are opportunities throughout the UK and overseas, for example in regional theatres, in touring productions or on cruise ships.
