Take Marketing, Business, and Arts Administration classes. Arts Administration is pretty much dealing w/ the Admin. part of the Performing Arts (which could apply to management and even promotion). Otherwise, work on something to do w/ Business and/or Marketing. Then go to college to get your Bachelors. If you want to deal w/ performers, performance buildings, and/or music conservatories, then they are looking for someone with those degrees, plus a strong background/love for music, so if you can take some music courses that would be great (music history, etc.)
Good luck!
