Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Find every opportunity in your traveling distance that does Plays or Musicals!. Check the schools and community groups as well as professional!. Contact them and ask to be notified of any auditions!.
If you do not get a part, offer to help in any way (paint scenery, usher etc!.) Just being around the production you will learn a lot!.
Study Dance, Music and Acting!. You must be able to do at least one great and the others well enough to let the others work around you!. Find classes or instructors that have produced talent!.
Work on your image!. You have to be a go getter, with lots of confidence and at the same time come across as humble!.
Develop work ethics!. Never be late!. Never be absent!. Always be attentive!. Always show respect for others, even when you do not think they deserve it!.
If and when approached by a talent agent or agency!. Check them out carefully!. If you are too young to sign a contract, remember your parents will need to be very involved!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

first step: build up your resume!. it helps a lot!. Try school plays, research some local community theatres!. you could even take some lessons (<this is a HUGE plus for agents and casting directors)!.
once you've had some experience, you could try finding some acting agencies around you!. look for auditions anywhere you can find them!. be persistent!.

oh, and don't be discouraged if you are turned down from an audition!. you might be a tall blonde girl, and they are just looking for a short brunette boy

if you have any other questions, try talking to a music teacher or theatre teacher at your school if you have one
