your thought on acting?
Last summer I did a play (alice in wonderland) and now I want to do more. This summer I am trying out to be Belle from beauty and the beast. I am not good at singing or dancing but I am an ok actress I guess.I just wanted some thought from people who have acted and how I can get better.

Good acting is accredited to (not limited to):
. Good listening
. Good reading
. Good relating
. Good control/use of your mind, body and expressions
. Good projection
. Good direction and good with taking direction
. Good attitude
. Good assertiveness
. Good health and fitness
. Good imagination
. Good improvisation
. Good self esteem and self worth (not arrogant)
. Good drive and commitment
. Good eye and body language
. Good judgment
. Good risk taking (feeling the fear and doing it anyway)
. Good communication, interpersonal and networking skills.
As for playing the part of Belle and not being a good singer or dancer - give it a shot but don't be too hard on yourself if you don't get it. As Belle is a fairly physical and vocally demanding role.
It is good that you have a realistic understanding of yourself and roles in musicals do exist for those who haven't got terrific singing voices or tapping feet. I know I do many musicals and I don't sing or dance particularly well, it's my story telling that pulls me through.
All the best :)

well if you want to get better you should read some books about acting, theatre etc..
the more you learn about acting and its history the more comfortable you will feel in its environment.
and if you have a favorite character from a movie, tv etc try emulating the character, that's how you get better.
but most important is to be confident and if the first audition says no we don't want you then their are millions more waiting for you. don't ever let anyone say you cant.
good luck =]
