ahhh thank God finally someone who realizes becoming a disney channel star is not the end all be all to acting! you will get typecast as a teen queen on disney and will never get any real roles! congrats on wanting to become a serious actor!. =) i would start small by taking classes and participating in local theater productions!. get a local agent, and eventually move up to getting an agent in LA or NY!. google theater companies in orlando i bet you will get a few good results!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
