I live in a small town in Missouri and I have been acting since I was around four (I am fourteen now) In childrens' productions at our church and have landed several leads in thoses plays. Lately I have been taking up theatre and have done serveal high school level plays at a High School with a very good drama department and one at another local theatre called Stainted Glass. Three plays is alot for one year for me while doing church productions like playing Mary in the adult progam and directing the childrens at Christmas time and played Rebekah in a Mother's Day program. I have decied I want to take up film acting. My parents think it is unreasonable dream, but I know I have the skill enough to do it. But since I live in a small town on the outskirts of Joplin there are no audtions for major movies. Are there websites that will tell you where you can audtion for certin movies or if you can do them but tape. I would be glad if someone will answer me. Thank you for reading this. Stella

So I had done an audition for a musical at the community theatre last Saturday (the 5th), and it was always routine that the director call everybody that very night to inform whether or not they had made the show (or received a callback for a role).

Well, so far I have heard nothing from them. I had contacted everybody I knew at the auditions and they've all received a call that night. I am pretty confused and stressed. What should I do?

I've always wanted to be an actress, and I've done a little bit here and there, but now at age 21 I'm ready to start taking it more seriously and make it my career. Anyone have any suggestions on making this work? I've looked at American immigration laws and I'd pretty much have to marry an American in order to stay, and I'm not doing that. I have the funds, and I have somewhere to stay, should I just wing it until I get work?

And also is 21 too old to start? Theres 13 year olds who have had more experience than I have.
Thanks.

I am not asking for xxx films, that is obvious, but for normal hollywood action films, where there is a love scene. Do they really do it or faking?

I am an Asian American who is now officially 18 years old and I have been pondering about what I want to do in life. I don't have much experience in acting, or drama, except for this one performance I did in my previous year, but it has been something that has always interested me. I would like to get a career started but I just don't know where to start. My initial plan was to attend UCSD, which I'm going to attend in the fall, and work on a pharmacy degree while doing sidework to increase my acting skills and see if I truly have the motivation to go big with it. Afterward I get my degree, I planned to go to Japan and take more classes there and hopefully hit it big and eventually knocking some roles in Hollywood. I would like some advice on my plan to get started. I know it takes true devotion, perseverance, and hardship endurance to make a dream come true and that's what I'm going to do. It just seems to risky to go straight into an acting career without having a backup job.

What do you recommend I should do after I finish my B.A. in Drama/Theater?
Audition directly for professional theater or get a day job and go to community theater?
I really wanna know how does it works up there in New York.
Anything to help guide me would help a lot, thanks!

My children are interested in modeling and acting and I want to find out if there are any reputable acting agencies in houston, tx. They auditioned this weekend for the JRP John Robert Powers Talent Management Company and they were very excited about it until I researched and found out they had numerous BBB complaints and were a total scam.

My kids have headshots but are inexperienced. They are 7 and 13 and they are the ones that really want to do this....I am not a mom living through my kids :p)

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I want to get into a theatre play/musical/whatever such as Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat or CATs but how can I audition well enough to get in? I've tried practicing singing in the shower countless times, singing in front of EVERYBODY during free period (thus amounting to the title of laughingstock) or recess or whatever but I CAN NEVER GET IN! LIKE TOTALLY!

Any good advice or helpful tips ple-ple-ple-pleaseeeeeeee?

But literature enthusiasts slam me for saying that, allow me to explain my view...

- This is 2007, he wrote his works over 500 years ago, and I feel like i'm the only person who finds his texts predictable and grim. Admittedly, its the principle that counts, but the presentation of his ideas isn't entertainment. Maybe back when it was written, but not anymore! So why is it on the exam board????

- Going back to the curriculum, teachers/tutors consistently defend his work, even when students point ideas that are fairly plausable that suggest he never thought something through. One such example in King Lear - characters just deciding to leave the play? Anomolously? Shakespeare for all we know could have thought "oh who cares, can't think of any reason to keep him, so the fool can dissapear" yet people defend this is suggest 'their was a reason'..

-... which makes me wonder, how can these people believe he does no wrong?? No-bodys perfect, and he certainly wasn't.

Anyways.....
