Answer
Hi ya, Harry,  Well, probably the best thing would be to get connected with Stagecoach.  Do all things drama at school, especially the plays. The basic steps are 1 get lots of acting expereince in plays, 2. take professional classes and 3. get an agent.  You also might plan to go to university or academy for acting training.  You will need at least one of your parents working hard to make your dream happen if it is to happen before you are 18. Up until then your parents have to sign for everything professional that you do.  Best wishes and God bless, Doc
