StageOne Talent was built specifically for emerging actors.
The first timers. The dreamers. The bold new voices steeping onto the stage or screen… ready to be seen, heard and cast.

Bret brings his experience in talent placement, casting, and production support and combines it with a deep passion for supporting the arts. He’s helped place thousands of actors - many of them first-timers - in commercials, print, student and short films, independent projects, and theatrical productions.

Based in Silver Lake, Bret’s work spans both coasts with a deep concentration in Los Angeles and the surrounding areas. He has lent his time and creative expertise to several actor communities and collaborates with LA-based working directors, casting agents, agencies, and producers.

Behind Bret stands a network of trusted advisors from the entertainment industry. Working directors, producers, and industry professionals who understand what it takes to succeed in today’s ever-evolving entertainment landscape. Together, they provide guidance, on-going advisory services, and real world connections that make StageOne Talent a true launching pad for the next generation of performers.
