Entertainment Expo worth it?#1

Posted: 1/19/08 at 11:53am

I live a few hours outside of NYC, but read that there is an open audition at the Entertainment Expo next week. Does anyone know if this is worth a 5 hour drive to audition? Or is it just a scam to get people to go to the Expo?

If it's worth it, what time should I get there?

Thanks!

That depends on who you ask. Some will say any chance to be seen by professional casting agents is never a waste of time, others will say don't bother.

PEACE.

For god's sake, GO. If it is a bust you can at least enjoy the city; shop, eat, catch a show...
Make up your own mind and next year you will be able to answer this question for people who will be in your situation.
And REPORT BACK!

PEACE.

Thanks Sueleen, but I'd rather not come to the city if it's not worth it. It's $$$! I know someone else out there must have gone before!

Here's another thread with some opinions:

Thanks for the help, but those opinions frankly are worth zero. The original poster looks like they work at the event or something. Anyone else?
