Hi Katie
Ask your parents to enroll you into dance school/acting/singing, you can do this part time or until you are 18 and ready to audition for drama school. Take drama and English as a subject at high school and if you/your parents can afford it, try and see as much live theatre you can. Read lots of plays. Watch alot of award winning films. Go to the AADA performances, infact go to all of them if you can and introduce yourself as the next best thing. If you have a close friend that is into the same things as you, you can go to the theatre together. Discuss all the aspects of the production.
Once you are accepted into drama school they will teach the rest. And the rest is history.
To sum up.!!
Part time training until you are 18
Watch lots of theatre and discuss
Read lots of plays/watch lots of award winning films
Go to the AADA productions and introduce yourself as the next best thing
Audition and win a place (The rest they will teach you)
I wish you all the luck on your journey.
Best wishes
