    You got all the small dude parts lined up. Lots of work for you. Go learn how to act. Its hard. Check out Gaeity School, Trinity, Bull Alley, Cholaiste Dhulaigh, Inchicore College, Attic Studio, Theatre Forum, local youth theatre or amateur dramatics. If you like it, its for you. If you are lucky you can make a living out of it. Good luck

    Acting isn't modeling. Its not about how you look its about talent, luck determination and a thick skin. I'm a girl and just breaking the 5 foot mark so I'm trying to develop that thick skin myself but if you love it you won't give up. Good luck. :D
