Question
Hello Sir,
I have seen a lot you on the web, and i would like to ask you if you had any advise. I am fresh out of the Army and I love acting the problem is I have no experience just wanted to know if you knew how I could get my feet wet
Hello Mark, and thank you for your service to our country. The very best thing for you to do is to find a community theater near where you live and audition for their shows. You don't need experience and it is the very best way to get your feet wet. I also recommend that you read my blog at http://www.theatredoconacting.blogspot.com Read it all back to its beginning. Let me know if I can help you in any other way. God bless, Doc
