I think you have gotten great advice from @bisouu and @wonderful. You can pursue theater in college in non-audition based programs (BA degrees). Study what you love! On top of that, there is extracurricular theater in college. Then, try to embrace that even some of the most talented MT actors/singers/dancers, have difficulty getting professional work on stage and many of them go into related careers in theater. Their background ON STAGE is very beneficial to these other jobs such as stage management, directing, casting, producing, etc. I know many who attended BFA in MT programs who are doing such kind of work now. So, keep an open mind. Meanwhile, even if you are not cast in shows locally, keep training in voice, acting, and dance. Get involved in theater in some capacity at school or in your community now, even if not cast. Major in theater or MT in college in a BA degree program, and it can open all sorts of doors for you career wise.
