Anything Goes : Visa query by Thomas Grube

Anyone know of an easy, quick way to get a work visa for the UK?? I was fortunate enough to live & work there for a few years as an actor. My visa has since expired, I'm back in the USA & don't feel American anymore. It seems the only way to get a UK visa is if one is offered work or if one is rich: neither of which scenario I have going for me. I want to get back to London ASAP. Any suggestions and/or advice would be helpful.
