Audition Monologs for Student Actors: Selections from Contemporary Plays

The monologs in this theatre text are highly original works not found in other published versions. All are from recently produced plays from both established and emerging new writers. The fifty-seven selections are specifically suited to auditioning. The monologs in this collection are for actors 15 to 30 years of age, suitable for competitive auditioning, class or studio work, or general reading. About two-thirds of the selections are for women, and about one-third are specifically for minority actors. This monolog book addresses the major trends and conflicts of today.
