This fee is deductible from the final payment due to the Agency if casts are selected from the Agency.

You have to be 18 and up to register, or have your parent/legal guardian get in touch with us to sign you up.
7 Can I be signed to another agency, if I am with Lowrys Online Management?
No. Lowrys Online Management is a sole contract agency. When signing up with us, you must not be with any other agency, or join another agency whilst under Lowrys Online Management's representation. Not being honest about this from the start can cause lots of issues with productions, casting & all agencies involved. We fully understand that an exclusive agency isn't good enough for everyone, but this is a promise we have made to our clients and one we will be keeping.
