How do i get a lead role in a play at school?

I'm 14 and i usually get lead if not very good roles. So what you need to do is, if you are doing a monologue, have it memorized PERFECTLY. If you are visual, create pictures in your mind about what is going on in the mono loge and go through them in your head continuously. If you are more of an audio learner, record it and listen to it over and over again. I know this sounds super cheesy, but play the recording as you go to sleep. I'm sorry to say i don't know why this works, but research has proven that it does. On the day of the audition, you will probably be a little bit nervous. This can turn out to be a really good thing. If you are too nervous try finding something to keep you occupied like chewing gum or doodling on a piece of paper. you do want some nerves, though. nerves and erflies can be used as energy, and during an audition you need a ton of energy. So if tell yourself continually that the nerves are good things and are also energy, it will look like they are which will impress the people who are casting the play A LOT. When you are auditioning, if it is a stage or a room, go to the center and front of the casting directors. This shows them have confidence. Speak loudly and clearly (I'm sure you have heard that a million times before) and just have fun. Don't be afraid to make a total fool of yourself. That shows the casting directors you are not so self conscious that you are not willing to do something completely crazy. but most of all, like I said, just have fun!! hope this helps :)
