Who needs singing, dancing, or juggling!? That's not acting, that's performing!.

Yeah you have potential!. What you need to do is tune your voice to fit the occasion, your character's emotion, and ALWAYS ask yourself, would an actual person say or do this!? Would an actual person sound like this if this event were happening to him/her in real life!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yes!. Stick with it!. Don't sell yourself short!. Don't worry about your voice deepening!.Good Luck!.Carry on young actor !Www@QuestionHome@Com

Stay in school, work hard, go to college, and do the same thing there!. The chances of you being a successful actor are slim!. If you want to act, I suggest joining community theater and eventually getting into school plays in high school!. Then worry about it!. You are only 13 and you don't make up your mind at that young of an age about what you want to do with the rest of your life!. Like I said, if you really want to act, try out for local community theater in your town!. You will soon see if acting is something you want to pursue!. Most people never make the big time but if you like acting, you will enjoy community theater!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yeah, go for it! If you're not very confident in singing, just ask your teacher (or director, rather) what you need to work on!. And don't worry about your voice, one of my guy friends acts in the school plays, and even though his voice has deepened, he had to sing at a higher octave, because of the character!. Hope that helps!Www@QuestionHome@Com

The second answer was retarded!.

Just believe in yourself and you'll make it!.

I myself am 12 years old and already know I want to be an author or a librarian, jeez!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I am writing a soap opera!. It is about an actor/writer whom has taken up directing and later producing of of his own work!. This soap opera is about "me as the male lead", and all others are supporting actors!. The story is about the real lives of the characters whom roleplay the part(s) of extras working their way through acting academy!. Your part will be the role of a 13 year old male clarinet player,(NOT GAY), whose voice has not changed yet,but he hopes it will soon!. Think you can handle this "ROLE"!? Looks are not important, as you can change any part of yourself, which makes you believe you are evolving!. Your talents, skills etc , are all adaptable!. What i need is someone to fill the void between a hat and a pair of shoes!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
