I live in Phoenix Arizona. I am 15 and i really want to begin acting, but I don't know how to begin or where to start. Mr Miller, Good day sir. I have read all the previous letters and responses and admire your willingness to answer the same questions over and over. I find it amusing that with so many people wanting to get into acting that a small community theater group like ours could have such trouble finding people willing to help create a good show.
Community theater is the life blood of preforming arts.
Being an actor is impossible without the major support it takes to build the set, make the costumes, fund the production, coordinate the lights, sound, man the box office, usher, sell consessions. If you want to act there are dues to pay a lot of fun time with other people striving to put all the pieces of a top production together before the first note is ever sung. Some of the best experiences and best coaching I've had was back stage or in the set room or in a fellow actors home creating costumes. Henry, I couln't agree with you more - AM Ref 1427. Dear Mr Miller, I was curious about becoming an actor.
