Actresses must obtain experience to gain recognition and improve their acting abilities. Many actresses participate in community theater productions, while others work in dinner theaters or theme parks to gain professional experience. An actor’s job is to fully represent the character they are playing and to convince their audience that character is real by engaging them and drawing them into the story. This applies to major roles and smaller parts, as all roles combine to create a successful production. There are many ways to get into character and actors often research the jobs, hobbies, or activities of the characters they play so they are able to put themselves in that frame of mind.
