Find an agent or management company. That is the best way to become an actress.

And are you personally a teen?

OK, bad news. If you should be able to get into an audition for a 12-16 year old, you'd be up against other teens, some of whom have been in show biz since they were five or so--and several 18-20 year olds. I guarantee you that the director will either choose an established teen--or, as in that movie Juno, an adult. Directors either want experience or to be free from child labor laws, and you can't give them either.

Want to have a career as an actor? It will take years--how persistent can you be?

If your answer is "insanely" then OK, here's your plan.

Right now:
1. Take a good college-prep curriculum in high school. Uneducated actors have limited prospects.

2. Get instruction in acting, dance, voice, and anything else show-biz related.

3. Audition for amateur shows, including community theatres (if you don't know where they are, call the arts desk at your local newspaper or ask a librarian) and college theatre departments. Call them and ask to be on their mailing lists and ask if they have parts in coming plays for you. If you don't get a role, volunteer to work backstage or in the audience.

Thus, you're polishing your skills and building a network of people who do plays.

Next step: college.

Junior year of high school: get your counselor and your theatre acquaintances to help you identify 4 or 5 colleges that offer bachelor of fine arts (BFA) programs in theatre. Do not settle for a bachelor of arts (BA), which is an academic degree; you want the professional BFA. One or two of your colleges ought to be top programs where you stand a slim chance of admission; one or two ought to be selective ones where you stand a good chance of getting in, and one is the "safety net" school that admits everyone.

Senior year: EARLY! Apply for admission to those colleges. You do it early because (a) there's sometimes scholarship money deadlines to be met (b) in most cases, after you are admitted to the university as a student, you must then apply and get admitted specifically to the BFA program. At this point, your acting resume that lists a lot of work on shows (both onstage and backstage) will look good; you might get letters of recommendation from your theatre contacts, and you'll probably have to pay your own way to campus for the audition.

Once you complete the BFA, you'll have the basic skill s and knowledge to begin the exhausting, frustrating grind that's necessary to break through into the profession.

Break a leg!

First finish school=]....
