I'm a 14 year old in search for some way into the Drama biz, but I don't live near any drama schools and most of them are around £2000 a term anyway! Any tips as to how I can get a fast track to Acting?

Hard to help you if I don't know where in the country you are. The best way IS drama school. Are you near any theatres. Do they run classes. There is an organisation for Youth Drama which run summer schools. Anyway....join something, get acting..... get seen. There is no fast track. Only determination and hard work will get you there.

There is no fast track. Building an acting career is a long hard road for everyone. It is THE most sought after career in the world. If you want it you'll have to find a way to get your training and then work like a dog for years and even then you don't have a good chance. Forget it.

Try to get any acting experience you can! Do anything that your school offers you, check any local theatres for anything their doing, even offer to be a technician! any experience is better than none! plus it will get your name know!
Also try to get an agent, they will be able to offer you work. a good agent WILL NOT charge you upfront, they will take a some commission from the money you get paid. if an agent tries to charge you upfront, say no and DO NOT stay with that agent / agency!
It is VERY hard work! Be prepare to be doing awful parts for a long time until you are offered better parts.
Good luck!

Everyone is right. There is no fast track unless you are the relative of a celebrity. Since you are not in the US, we can't help you.

Ask your question in the UK section, go to the bottom of this page and click on the flag for the UK. You'are asking in the USA.

....a very tough industry to get in to.
How about getting a video camera and make a short film to send off to TV bosses.
