Answer 1

there should be a drama club in your city at a church or a center somewhere just google in your city and drama and se what comes up

Answer 2

be in all the plays you can. If you get good roles and do them well, you may want to continue.

Answer 3

Just first of all get involved in pantomimes and small productions, this should give you a head start.  

When you leave school, if you are serious about becoming an actor get some level 3 qualifications in things like acting, media, theatre studies and things like that.

Answer 4

First get an agent! Go into a yellow book a go under acting agencies. Ask for an agent there.

Second get a head shot,full body shot,profolio, and a reel.

Mine isn't done or professional though. You have to have many nice pictures of yourself first to do it yourself.

Now go to a website called exploretalent.com and sign up for it. You have to pay 54 cents a day though.

You could also go to open call auditions. E-mail me at [e-mail] and I'll tell you some around

your area. Just tell me what state you live in.

The easiest way is with an agent but you have to usually pay for them.

Btw.I'm going to an open call audition in NY,Ny if you could make it there.
