Any Budding Young Thespians

Hey all, i have been lurking for quite a while but it may seem unlikely due to my lack of posts.
So, i think i'll introduce myself, my name is Richard and i'm 16 and from Northern Ireland. I am hoping to be a professional actor when i'm older and i was just wondering if there are any other budding actors lurking about other than me?

Dick.

I remember you Richard, your're not alone

By the way I think the Golden Grannies Globe might be appropiate

Hi Dick.
I used to love acting

.
I was in a couple of plays at school.Nothing big,but it was a lot of fun.
I'm now perfecting another role.That of acting the fool

.

The best advice I ever have heard on acting was on a documentary on James Cagney hosted by of all people Michael J. Fox.MJF quoted Cagney as saying look at the guy,say the lines,but MEAN THEM.That's acting in a nutshell

.

Have you ever watched the Inside The Actors Studio series?It's very good.
Good luck with the acting.Let us know of any plays you do.

I have only seen Inside the Actors Studio once, which was with Mike Myers, it was very good. I can tell you that i do have an audition tomorrow as an extra in a new BBC series to be made in Belfast i think.
