advice

Hey, first off, let me start off by saying I'm fifteen years old and I'm a freshman in high school. I am involved in local theatre productions. For the longest time, since as long as I can remember, I've wanted to be famous. I wanted to be a model or an actress. I mean, when you really ask "what do you DREAM of doing?" I dream of singing before a crowd or being in magazines modeling or being in a film. It just seems to me that this is so out of reach and that I will never be able to be this. I kind of let it escape my mind and thought of other career options, but I think about this every once and awhile and it's hard to forget this "dream". I wonder if maybe it keeps popping in my mind for a reason? So, I was wondering if anyone could give me any insight as to how they feel about this, and whether or not you think I should pursue this and how to start. ANY sort of comment would be very helpful!

heyy,
you should deffinately persue your dream. Don't let anyone tell you no. And you are only 15 so you still have a lot of time to be an actress/singer/model. Become as involved as you possibly can without letting it effect your school/social life. In a few years if you still LOVE it then start to look at colleges that you'd be interested in.
good luck!!!

Hey ya'll!

I am going up to New york to see the Broadway play Wicked in March. I became totally obsessed with the play and I bought the sound track, made a collage of pictures of the cast and the cast in the play. But like a week ago I found out, I am not going to see the original cast. I still want to go see it, But why did they change the cast? Its a brand new broadway play...why?
Just wanted to know & thanks... and I rate!

Hey! I am trying out for the school play on Tuesday, there is 100+ people trying out (some 6th, 7th and 8th graders, I am in 8th, not that it matters) but I am scared. I had Speech and Drama for 12 weeks with the teacher that is going to be the one judging tryouts, I have performed in some stuff before (our teacher picked our group to perform in front of the school with our scence from the Jungle Book, she picked me to give my speech at Grandparents Day, and I was Lady Macbeth in a play a few years back) but I am still so nervous. Anyone have any advice on trying out, how to make my acting better, things to do or not to do in tryouts, etc? It would be much appreciated, and I rate high!

Thanks!

hey,
I had the same problem last year, I was a wreck because I was so nervous. I'm sure you will do fine but here are a few things to help. PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE. Practice makes perfect. I'm sure u have heard that sooooo many times but it is soo true! Practice a lot especially that day. Also you could practice w/ friends. Research your character too.Example: If you are going out for a colonial person, see if u can find any movies that is in colonial times. Watch it soo many times until you can act the way they do in the movie. Okay so that day make sure you keep your head up high! Show some confidence. And try to look at the judges. When you are practicing at home, make up hand motions that you think would fit the part. Also try to memorize some lines because that shows that you are willing to memorize and that you are ready to do this! On tryout day, don't let the pressure get to you, just focus on what you are doing and saying.
good luck!
and best of wishes!
o yea tell me how everything goes!!!
