Are you an actor, singer, dancer, director, writer, painter or other artist that is living the freelance, artistic lifestyle, but is drowning financially? Are you having a hard time finding the balance between making money, but needing flexibility in your schedule to attend auditions, pitch meetings, classes or whatever you need to do to progress your creative career? Most artists are. As a trained entrepreneur and actor, Alex Witherow dives into the rarely discussed topic: How do we sustain ourselves financially as artists given the unique demands of our lifestyle? Many actors and artists start out bright-eyed and optimistic in their 20s excited to take on the entertainment industry or their respective creative field. As time goes on, there is a silent killer to our creative endeavors - it's called your waning tolerance of poverty. Having roommates in your 20s is fine. In your 30s? Not so much. Having your rent paid by your parents in your 20s is fine. In your 30s? They won't be into that!Actors! Stop Waiting Tables! gives actors and artists a practical road-map to get out of the service industry and explains what the stakes really are - losing 30 hours a week to your side job is setting your career 10 years back or more.
