Question: Any acting opportunities!?
okay, so i want to grow up to be a clinical pshycologist but my dream is to be and actor/singer/dancer!. i am 13 years old and want to practice and maybe even be like that one girl acting on the suite life on deck!. ps, i love to act, sing, and dance so i guess i can be a so-called "triple-threat" i live in killeen close to dallas, waco, and austin texas, just in case you need to know!.Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
the only way to be a 'triple threat' is to be CONFIRMED that you are actually good all all three!. (ps!. apparently quadruple threats are the new thing now!. being able to play instruments as well)
i understand your dillema about being one thing but have a dream as another!. it's like a fall back plan!.

but what you can do is get involved with drama in your high school!. in most middle schools, they don't have plays!. so talk to the drama teacher(s) in the high school and tell them that you are available if they ever need a young girl for any of their productions!. you also have the possibility if being in choir!. the more you sing/practice in front of people the more comfortable it will be!.

take dance classes and be eccentric (more than one) don't just focus on one kind of dance!. variability is always the best choice!. so that way, if you ever audition, they don't just have a hip hop dance, or a ballet dancer they have a variaty of all in one special package!
and just because i say more than one doesn't mean at one time!. money can be tight ( in my case it is ) so just take one at a time!.

also, to be a quadruple threat, is to play an instrument, you can see this in miley cyrus, demi lovato, etc!. demi plays drums/guitar/piano/, she sings, acts, and dances!. same with miley!.

being multi-talented gives you a better edge than other actors that want the same role Www@QuestionHome@Com

No!. How can your goal and your dream be two different things!. You are what clinical psychologists call 'conflicted'!. Take singing and dancing lessons, act in all the school plays, then go to KD studio in
Dallas and study acting!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

If i were you, i would try acting school!. Maybe a camp!. Try your Drama club in school! Then Get an agent, and then audition!

Best of Luck!
