How to star in a West End Musical?
I can sing, and im a fairyly good actor. I know i need 2 have dance lessons but how can i go from being a singing, daning actress, to a west end star?
How should i go about it?
By the way, im 15
You're the perfect age to start seriously.
Audition for all the performing arts colleges - read programmes from the kind of shows you see yourself in. In their bios, most of the cast say where they trained. Google the names of the colleges, call or email them for a prospectus and application form. Auditions cost money, sadly, about £30 each plus travel expenses. Different colleges ask for different things, but you should generally prepare a 1:30 minute dance, two songs - up tempo and ballad, a modern monologue, and a Shakespearean one to cover your bases. Competition is steep, but remember that everyone is auditioning everywhere, so there aren't really as many competing students-to-be as there seem. And don't give up - a lot of places want 18 year olds, and may reject you purely on the basis of age, hoping you'll come back in a couple of years.
Once you're into one of these places, you're spending 3 years on becoming a professional. In the third year you're auditioning for shows and agents, and probably have your Equity card. Equity isn't really all that important when it comes to getting work, but they do a lot of work protecting you once you have it.
May I humbly suggest, to start with:
Mountview
Arts Educational
Performers'
Bird College
Guildford School of Acting
Stella Mann College
Laine Theatre Arts
And good luck. If you must break a leg, make sure it isn't your own...
