Move to Los Angeles where they do most of their casting and get an agent there. To be an actor on a Disney show you need to have an agent. To get an agent you need to have serious training and experience which means making a real commitment to your career at a very early age. That also means having a very supportive and dedicated family as well. They have to put their lives on hold for your career because most Disney shows tape in Los Angeles (or on location once they've done their casting in LA), if you don’t live there you’ll have to move or one of your parents will have to be willing to live there with you while you audition for shows and hope that you get something and if you do, then you have to stay there until the show is done.

Disney kids are triple threats. They sing, act, and dance and they do all three very well. If you’re not already in classes for all three disciplines, you better get a move on! You also need to have experience… a resume with real credits. You can start with local theatres, student films, etc. but eventually if you’re going to be taken seriously you have to start booking at least under 5’s, guest spots, etc. and work your way up to leads. Once you have a few things an agent may consider taking you on.

So, get into classes and get involved in local theatres for now then come back and ask about agents once you've built a bit of a resume :-)

Good luck!

Get an agent and go to FL.
