My daughter, who is 12 yo, is an amazing singer/dancer/actress. Whenever people see her doing any of these three, they always suggest that she does it professionally. What options are there for a frum girl?
Thank you

That's great that she is so talented! There are often opportunities for a girl to shine in school and camp. Beyond that, it gets challenging, but you have years ahead of you first.
Let her enjoy performing, and encourage her to grow. The odds of a talent scout offering her a Hollywood contract tomorrow are probably slim.

It depends where you live. In the New York area, particularly Brooklyn and Money, there are programs she can be a part of that do training and sometimes do productions and women's only movies. You can check if there's a Ratzon program or something similar in your area.
If not, you can get her private voice lessons to develop her talent. Dance and acting are a little harder, though many Jewish communities have women who either are BT and have had performing arts careers or have experience from other realms. You can ask about private lessons or try to form a class.
While you may not have access to performances or movies for her, many girls get tremendous satisfaction from developing their talents, particularly if they can do so with like-minded frum girls. And if she works on her talents enough, she may one day be able to teach them to others.
Finally, summer camp. Tizmoret Shoshana has been talked about on this board. They have real training. It's short, but the girls form relationships they use all year long. I've heard there is something similar on the west coast.
