Submissions

To submit your work as an Actor, email your CV, headshot and showreel to one agent only. Contact details can be found on their individual pages. If you have not received a reply within 4-6 weeks, your application has been unsuccessful. We do not accept submission enquiries over the telephone.

We are always on the hunt for exciting new voices and welcome your submission. Each agent has created their own boutique list, which is a reflection of their personal tastes and the genres they specialise in, so please look at the agents’ individual pages for their wishlists and submission guidelines, and choose the one person you feel would be the best fit for your book.

For children’s submissions, please refer to Children’s Authors and Illustrators.

During the submission process please do let us know if another agent has requested your complete manuscript or offered you representation.

We look forward to hearing from you.

To share your work with the Comedy Department, please email your CV, script or showreel to an agent directly. You can find each agent’s contact details on their individual pages.
