Hybrid [adjective] of mixed character; composed of different elements.

WE ARE A MULTINATIONAL COMPANY

We represent Artists located and/or from Australia, United States, England, Canada, Mexico & France for careers in feature films, television, commercials & digital media.

WHAT SEPARATES RWA FROM THE REST?

RWA is a professional, fast paced, & results driven agency. We combine the skill-sets of a talent agent, manager & producer into a single offering. The result is a new hybrid in Artist representation. This is RWA.

Aggressively promoting RWA's Artist's to the casting community is Rob Woodburn whose expertise derives from over twenty years of industry experience in the U.S., Australian & international markets.
