Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
There are a lot of children on Broadway!. I have seen children a lot younger than 13 years old!. If you are really serious about following your dreams, work hard!. Remember, Broadway is the best of the best!. Try out for a local theater production, or a school event!. If you still think your Broadway quality, video tape yourself performing!. Post it on You Tube!. A lot of talent scouts look there for potential talent!. About Legally Blonde, like any other show it will probably won't last that much longer!. It won't be around as long as shows like "Phantom" or "Rent"!. Good luck!Www@QuestionHome@Com

children are on broadway, but you need a parent to accompany you to every audition and job, so if you don't live very close to nyc and have parents willing to do this its tough!. if you have no experience, training, or agent it will be very difficult as well!. it would be a good 5 years AT LEAST before you could do legally blonde, and the show wont necessarily be on broadway still by then!. in addition, you need to belong to the actors union to do a broadway show, and its hard to even be seen for an audition unless you already belong!. this can take years and years of experience before you are able to join the union!. basically there are tons and tons of steps to take before you can get on broadway!. you should do lots of community theater and school plays for now, and take all the lessons you can, understand its going to take years of work and baby steps, but in the meantime don't give up on your dream!.
there are really no sites or places to call to try out for commercials!. its harder than that!. you need to get training and build up a resume so that someday an agent will want to work with you and send you on real commercial auditions!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

A lot of actors and actresses start really early!. My advice would be start try out for things like commercial and things like that!. Believe it or not there are people watching things like that just to find actresses!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
