Hey,
I'm 16 and give a lot of advice but can't find the answer to my own. I've been into acting for 4 years and want to make it in the business, it's really all I want to do. I'm pretty confident and a positive thinker. I'm doing "performance studies" as a course now. But I'm from a little town in England,which is not on the map, and most people havent even heard of it. Is there any hope? I'm so dedicated and committed to anything that I'll get a chance to do. I just want to break out and make it big! But there are NO auditions here, and if they are they are really far away and my parents both work till late and I feel helpless because I don't know how or what to do. Is there any hope at all? I also take acting lessons online aswell as school, at home I take notes while i watch tv. It's becoming a big part of me..

I'm not sure how small your town is, but you are quite young. This is your biggest advantage. As far as acting goes- experience is better than talent- so take your time keep learning, take parts in plays within your community or places that are closer than the city. Also it would never hurt to make your own films as well, post them on youtube, as well as other websites like deviantart.com and other video/art sharing sites. It's the disadvantage of living in a small town, but if you have the passion you will make it big, but you have so many years left to live right. So you're going to need to work with what you have until you can move to the cit on your own.
