You audition for a school or training program. If you have unrefined talent, the proper looks and physique to be castable, then you may get accepted to one of these programs. There you will learn acting technique (you will need a great deal of this) including movement, voice/diction, stage fighting, makeup, costume, technical theater, you will read many plays, you will dabble at singing. (Bear in mind that musical theater is a whole different world. You question does not address that.) The typical training program to get someone ready to audition for professional theater is usually about 4 years. Of course, the real training comes after that as one auditions, auditions, auditions, take lo wpaying gigs, works days and tried to break into the business. Don't do it unless you have to.
