Our Story

Made By Performers,
For Performers.

We know what it is like to spend hours formatting a resume that still does not look right. To wonder if your skills are being presented the way casting directors want to see them. To lose track of which version you sent to which theater.

LimeLight was built by working performers who got tired of generic resume builders that did not understand our industry. Every feature, every template, every AI suggestion is designed with one goal — getting you into that audition room.

Reviews

What Performers Are Saying.

★★★★★
"
I uploaded my old Word doc and within two minutes had a resume that looked like it belonged on Broadway. I got three callbacks the following week — one from a director who specifically commented on how clean and organized my credits were.

The Skills Converter is wild. I needed a corporate resume for a temp gig between shows and it translated "20 years of ensemble performance" into actual leadership language that got me interviews. I didn't have to write a single word.

As a voice artist, I've always struggled to present my demo reel alongside my written resume. The QR code integration is genius — my VO reel is literally on every PDF now. Bookings went up noticeably in the first month.

The Resume Score told me exactly what was wrong with mine — I had been listing my training before my credits for years. Fixed it in five minutes and started getting more eyes on my Actors Access profile almost immediately.

I'm a choreographer and movement director — finding a resume format that handles both was a nightmare until LimeLight. The Contemporary template is exactly what I needed. Clean, modern, and gets noticed.

The analytics told me a regional theater MD had viewed my profile six times in one week. I reached out directly and landed a season contract. That information was worth ten times the subscription price.

💡 Top Suggestions to Improve Your Score:
⚠️ Training section — Add your voice teacher's name and years of study. Casting directors want specifics, not just institutions.
⚠️ Special Skills — Your dialect range is unlisted. Add specific accents (British RP, Southern US, etc.) to increase searchability.
Credit order — Your Broadway credits are correctly leading each section.
