I'm 28 and since I was a little girl I wanted to be an actress, but I've never been brave enough to risk and try. I have a job, I have a nice life, but I realised this is not what I've been dreaming of my entire life. Is it too late to start? Is anyone going to cast me at this age (with no experience, I mean)?
Thanks for the answers! :-)

AS you see from the other answers , no, it is not too late. The question is what sort of actress do you want to become? You can easily get cast in community theatre plays if you just go try. For more help, read my profile and contact me at my aol address where I help people become actors without charge.

No, it's not too late to start. The beauty of acting is you can start at any age and work until you're 100! :-) However, you'll have more success if you learn some fundamental techniques about acting first. If you have any colleges in your area that have theatre departments, call them and ask about taking a basic acting class (often called Acting I or Beginning Acting). Also, if you have community theatres around begin auditioning for small parts and chorus parts. Its a great way to "get your feet wet" in acting and build your confidence. It's one thing to have the desire. It's another to know you have the talent. The only way you'll develop the talent is to get out there and do it.

It's never too late. You should at least try. Try taking theater classes at a local theater or something, and working at a community theater will help too. You just have to keep a positive attitude and remember that even if you don't get into a show, just auditioning is a good experience. Just start small and work your way up. Good luck!

It's never 2 late! Look at Barbara Windsor who plays Peggy on East Enders, she's 70 and still acting! If you have a dream or a life's ambition, it's never 2 late to fulfil it! If it's what you really want, just go 4 it!! Good Luck!! =)
