auditions are incredibly hard to get without having an agent. it is advisable to do some workshops, particularly with reputable theatre companies. these will look much better on your cv than a workshop with someone or a company who no-one has heard of. apart from that, maybe look into what sort of training is available at the universities and colleges. Perhaps try and get involved with a new up and coming theatre company or perfromance company.
as for the head shot, it is important that you atleast have something professional looking. it isn't hard to get a decent head shot and you don't necessarily have to get one professionally shot if you know someone with a decent slr.

thanks, i think it might be easier here than most places, based on the large amount of talent needed ads about
