Theater & Acting - December 2006

I'm kind of shy and don't really like to give speeches in front of people but I think I have a passion for acting. I dont really haved any training but I feel it in my heart that I want to do it. Does it make sense for someone to want to do this and be shy at the same time? I don't want to do it for only the fame and fortune which that i a nice incentive but I'm a student in college and I always want to just quit my business major and study acting. It's driving me crazy. Is it your passion when you think about something and your heart just pounds because you want to do it. Please help me understand.

Also, callbacks, whats the deal. i know what it is... but how should you behave...? if the charecter they have you read lines from has an accent, should you use the accent? any other things?

thanks.

I've been interested in acting for about a year now maybe 2. My parents and I want me to be a vet but right now I want to act more then become an act. I was thinking maybe I could get a degree in Veterinary medicine but also be an actress. I dont' know how to tell my parents though. We're not rich, and I don't want to spend a lot of money. Do you have any ideas on how to tell my parents and how not to spend a lot of money. (I already know of some sites that have auditions) Please only serious answers.

I was in wal-mart yesterday, when all of a sudden this older guy comes up(not "old", but maybe like mid 30's to early 40's) and says "You are adorable!" Then he's asking who does my hair and colors it and I said my mom does. Anyway, he gave me a card that had just his first name on there (It looked professional), and then he's like "well if you ever want anything done like hair or makeup(because he works on that kind of stuff he said), call me. I also work with modeling/beauty agencies." Or you know, something along those lines. His work number or cell, I forget which one, was written on the back. He asked for my name also. So, I'm just wondering, should I call? I've always dreamt of getting into acting and such. I'm 18 years old also, if any of you are wondering. Thanks for the help!

I have a precocious 18 month old. She can sing (on key) and is adoreable ( I know all children are, but she really is beautiful). When a group of people are around she will start to sing and dance. We were looking at agencies to send her photo's in to when she fell into our coffee table and got a small chip out of her front tooth (we had a heavy blanket over it in case that happened, but that did not help it). Is it possible she could still get commercials or modeling gigs even though there is a little chip in her tooth?

I got up there and forgot my lines. Not just a little spacey. I remembered one line and then had to look at a paper and then said that line and then had to look again. Then I had to sing a 30 sec part of an upbeat musical song and I couldn't remember the material WHAT-SO-EVER! I went totally blank!! I sang one line all shakey and forgot the next line. Then I looked at the words and got that. And couldn't think of anything else. It sounded so bad that I decided to just sing it off the sheet thinking it would be my only saving grace. But of course, then I couldn't remember how it went! So I made up something WAYYYY off and it was HORRIBLY out of tune. When I was done I just said "Thank you." royally humiliated. Took her a sec to even SPEAK and she goes, "Thank you, call backs will be posted tomorrow." I got out of there as fast as I could.
This was my first audtion but I KNEW MY STUFF! I knew it!! That's what makes me so mad. Tips on how I can get back in the game? I want this.

My BETA club is planning a fundraising play, but we need something appropriate (nothing a principal would call innappropriate or a 6th grade boy wouldn't do), somewhat long (30 minutes to 1 1/2 hours), has many speaking parts, and has a good spread of lines and characters. We would like to do a comedy, but not concentrated on potty humor. (I have to say, though... the Fart-Zen play on Free Drama is pretty good :D)

We can't do any musicals, as we have few songbirds in BETA. It would be better if we could find a play that had interchangable parts. It should be appropriate and fun for 11-14 year olds. Nothing dorky, though; a story about kids that just love to do homework isn't going to go well with fellow students.

One more thing: It has to have no royalty or script charges. I have found several sites that offer this; I just have no clue which one to do!
