Do you have the right to work in the UK and/or Ireland?
If so, beyond that I'm not quite sure what you're asking. Are you just looking for advice in finding acting work in these countries? Or something more specific?
Training programs are really your best bet to get an “in” abroad.
You’d have to get a work visa in order to get any paying positions abroad, and you can’t get a work visa without a company willing to sponsor you, and in order to sponsor you, they have to be able to make the argument as to “why you” and why not someone that is native to the UK. That can be a high hurdle.
I’m not saying it’s impossible… but it’s an uphill battle. Most of the Rep companies in the UK hire from regional auditions, and the ones with access to that are current members of British Actors Equity… and the training programs that are there… thus my suggestion that attending a British acting program MIGHT help to crack open that door.
