plays yes or no?
Okay, there are some plays in my area that I would like to do. Kind of. Anyway, I want to be an actress and I have no experience like actually on the stage. So even though there is a play that is going on, the Jungal Book, it looks stupid and i don't really want to do it. SHould i anyway, just for the experience. I could only be an animal beacuase i'm not over 18 and i can't be the lead because the lead is a boy. It seems really dumb. But should i do it anyway just so i have somthing other than classes and special skills to put on my resume?

Maybe give some free advice about: Theater?
You should definitly take it. Any experience is better than no experience. Besides, "there are no small roles, only small actors" :-).
Acting is tons of fun, so I see why you want to do it. As Mangy Momma said, a lot of famous actors start off doing cruddy roles that don't seem like much fun.
Stage experience is a great thing and will look good to the "big guys" in charge of "more important" roles in the future.
Plus, you could meet a lot of cool people who could one day turn out to be influential.
Think about this: you could befriend someone who is also doing a part in this play. One day, this girl/guy could choose to become a director of a movie or a playwrite or something - you would have made a really good contact.
I'm not saying to take any role that comes your way. Make sure it's something you can have fun with. Being unhappy with a part will usually show (no matter how great you are at acting).
It's up to you, of course, but I think it's an opportunity worth taking.
Good luck and have fun!

If being on stage is something you are serious about doing, you should take any stage rolls you can get.
Heck, there's a lot of actors out there who started off in commercials they surely didn't want to be in, as well as bit parts in films, before they became the stars they are now.
Sometimes you got to just take what opportunities are available to you before the part you really want comes along.
