Hello everyone. If you could please help me out, that'd be great. I'm auditioning for Alice in Wonderland (for any of the comedic male roles) and need a CRAZY, wild, quirky, extravagent, hilarious, over-the-top monologue. I want to use the entire space and tell a story, but I can't seem to think of any monologues to use.

Any and all help/suggestions is/are greatly appriciated!

If you're looking for over-the-top, I would suggest "Reckless" by Craig Lucas. There is a monologue for a doctor character who guides the lead character through a psychological exercise about her birth. The role is usually played by a woman, but there's no reason it couldn't be played by a man.

The monologue itself is funny because the doctor starts very quiet and calm, but when the birth starts, the doctor gets into a frenzy actually describing the feelings of the baby coming out of the womb. It would be even funnier if you could play it as an Artie Johnson German accent type.
