What is PARF? We are an online acting
community known as the Professional Actors
Resource Forum, sometimes called Parents of Actors Resource Forum. Our
members are primarily teen and young adult actors, and as you may have
guessed, parents of actors. We also welcome adult
actors, agents,
managers, producers, directors, casting directors, and other industry professionals.
PARF is a
support forum, where we can share the joys, disappointments and frustrations
of this roller-coaster business of acting. For many parents of actors,
this is the one place where other people understand the choices we make with
and for our children. We also provide "Mom" and
"Dad" support for teens and young adult actors looking for
information. New actors and their parents are always welcome to join in, ask questions and read our archives compiled from our
members' experiences. Some of our board features:
Commercial Tracking
Photographer Recommendations

Changes to the Coogan laws affecting minors
