  1. No, an agent will not take you at your age without training and experience.  And sorry but there are no SAG agents in PA and Disney doesn't cast there anyhow.  If you want a chance at Disney you'd have to move, most likely to Los Angeles.  You'd be better off starting at home and getting some training and experience.  Once you've done that you can try getting an agent and getting some regional commercials or local work to build your resume before you make the move.  If you live near the border, PA borders NY which has lots of great agents.  There are some in Jersey and MD but that's about it.  There are probably some great agents who are not SAG franchised, check with your state film associations.

    Also, you should really consider whether you want to be an actor or if the bright colors and beat of Disney music is just calling your name.  Honestly as an actor, you can't just tell your agent "I only want to work for this particular network or company"  They won't take you... Agents want to make money and with the roles already being few and far between why would they take an actor who is severaly limiting their options right off the bat?  They wouldn't.  

    good luck,

  2. Well to gain better practice you really should ask to get acting lessons at a local theater meant for girls your age.

    You might if you try, just go out for plays that are near where you live and do research and so on to help you reach your goal!
