1) Learn to sing...loud. On Broadway, volume and projection are everything. Later, you put some personality into your voice, and wham! You're home free. Remember Ethel Merman? Voice like a longshoreman, but she was *big* on Broadway.
2) Dance. Dance a lot. Dance well. On Broadway, if you can't dance, you're screwed. If you're a female, make sure you have long legs so that you are more impressive at cattle calls.
3) Learn to be an excellent waiter so that you don't starve or have to live outside or pimp yourself while you're struggling to get a break on Broadway.
4) Take acting lessons. Seriously.
