I am really interested in musical theatre and I am also a Jazz vocalist and was wondering what is the best way to get started? Would love to make a career (or try to) out of this passion. Can someone help me out with any course or workshop suggestions, etc...?

I agree with walter

I agree with walter above... they didn't ask to be cast in anything. nor did they ask you to contact them. they were just curious about atrating points. Na you always have something stuck somewhere and are so grumpy about it. leave the newbiews alone! The industry is full of people like you that think they know such much more and so much better and these people are just as annoying as the ones that think they can become famous in a day.... no one likes a know it all. Well let me guess, you haaave been involved in this industry for such a loooong time. Don't crush dreams. Are you famous yet? And to answer your question.... Try ammature companies, classes (acting, dancing singing)A lot of this industry is who you know not what you know so network as much as possible. Not always is it the case the most talented get the job (unfortunately) and once the CV is looking fine... do lots of research on representation and then start searching. a hard and greulling process but if you love it its worth it. GOOD LUCK!
