i am an 14 year old actress in iowa too dont get down yet :)

there are some great agencies in iowa that i am a part of search google for agencies near you some good ones are RSVP talent and Coopland creative talent

also take classes at your school and get experience with the des moines playhouse so your resume is strong enough to get an agent

First, make yourself clear if you want a JOB or an ACTIVITY that will make you happy!. If you want to be "famous" (means being professional to you), and then make money, you should differentiate that being notorious is not necesary being talented, or, even worse, will make you compromise many ethical things that you might not like to do or act in plays that you dont really like!. Be professional, not famous!. Make what will nurture you!. Best of luck!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Who cares what your parents say!? If your serious they should believe in you!. It is so not fare if they dont!. If your desperate enough get a ride with your friends!.

When you get your agent they should take care of flying you out of your state!. You start out with a smaller agency (top 20 or so) and soon you and your agent will be at top 10!!!!

Its alot of work so get ready!. Do warm ups every day and live life up on stage!.



Good Luck!!!!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Well first I would look online and try to find a real talent agency near you!. But beware there are many talent agency's that are not real!. So be careful about that!. once you have a agent he'll find all the auditions for you!. good luck!Www@QuestionHome@Com
