<p>Okay so for all the plays i have done before I have never had to write a resume and now I need to write one for the upcoming play i am doing. I was wondering if someone could tell me what needs to be on the resume and what the format needs to look like. Or if you know of any goods sites that can help me make one. Also I need to have a coverletter, what is that and how do i do one? Your help is greatly appreciated.</p>
<p>just do a google search. type acting resume.</p>
<p>This is how I would do it;</p>

<p>(Some people suggested putting the names of who you worked with in this section in addition to the institution, I don’t agree but that’s up to you)</p>
<p>Special Talents
I can belch on queue </p>
<p>As this is an acting resume do not put stuff in it that does not directly relate to acting. It doesn’t matter if you volunteer for the Red Cross or have worked on set construction.</p>

<p>Sorry, I have tried twice to apply the proper layout and this system wont let me. </p>
<p>Below the name "Appereance" and "Contact Information" are two seperate columns one on the left and the other on the right. Send me a PM if you want to see one that we did.</p>

<p>Just thought I'd mention to search the CC boards on resume questions - last time there were some great links to examples of resumes from some senior showcases.</p>
