How can you get into the acting?

Well, you need to be passionate about it. You can't get a role and decide you don't want it half way through. I took 6 years of acting school! Trust me, acting is for those without a sense of dignity on-stage. I played as a fat 10 year old girl in front of almost 800 people! Just ask yourself, do I really want it? If you want it, just go for your life. If you live in the Atlanta Georgia there is a FREE Actors Workshop on Saturday 10/8/2011. The website is: http://esenterprises.com

What do stage directions provide in a play?

Stage directions are very important when in a play. They tell you where to go and what to do on stage. If the director says go upstage, you move backwards. If a director says move downstage, you go towards the audience. Without stage directions no actor or actress would know where to go. Trust me, I have been in at least 8 plays, and I am only in middle school.# Stage directions are quite important because if the actor ends up in the wrong place it can throw off other actors and ruin the blocking or choreography.


Who played the female character on stage in Shakespeare's time?

Women were not permitted to act in plays publicly until 1660, although there are stories of private performances before that. When the ban on actresses was lifted, one of the first actresses to appear on stage was Margaret Hughes, who played Desdemona on December 8, 1660, although some evidence suggests that it may have been Anne Marshall (later Mrs. Anne Quin) who played that role.
