Question: How much does height matter in theater!?
I'm 5'2 and basically done growing!. (I'm 14)
Even if I'm not I'm still going to be short!. I love theater and I'm scared that it's going to be hard for me to get roles due to my height!. Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
An astounding number of the most famous theater actresses were very short women!. You will never have the problem of not being cast for a role because you were too tall for the leading man!.

btw, there is very little chance that you have stopped growing at only 14 years of age!! : )Www@QuestionHome@Com

You won't stop growing until you're in your early 20's!. Height is relative!. You can get parts based on talent!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
