floweryfriend, thank you so much. really.

i have never really found a monologue that has worked well for me, rather that i have felt comfortable with. so this is really appreciated.

question, are many/any of these comedic? that's what i do the best i think.. so can you let me know? PM me! =)

thanks again! <3

"You have two kinds of shows on Broadway – revivals and the same kind of musicals over and over again, all spectacles. You get your tickets for The Lion King a year in advance, and essentially a family... pass on to their children the idea that that's what the theater is – a spectacular musical you see once a year, a stage version of a movie. It has nothing to do with theater at all. It has to do with seeing what is familiar.... I don't think the theatre will die per se, but it's never going to be what it was.... It's a tourist attraction." Stephen Sondheim

Ok, there are ALOT of overdone monologues in there. Sorry! As a musical theatre major (as I assume many of you are from these posts) you want to do something that is completely unexpected. My suggestion for finding monologues is this :

- Research your favorite authors
- Read EVERYTHING of theirs
- Find something that is either from their early work or you have never heard of before and look through those plays, because chances are if you like the author and their style you are bound to find something that fit you

- Make friends with playwrights! They love having people read their work and something COMPLETELY new is always exciting for a casting director.

- And a good rule of thumb is if the monologue is posted on the internet, it is probably overdone.

I hope that helps a little bit! And remember you always want to at least two monologues from every genre prepared and able to work up quickly!

You're totally right, Erin Eloise. I made this list years ago, so I can't really advocate it anymore. But for, like high school and community theatre auditions? They're probably fine.

I starred in a short film called Magnetic Personality. Check it out!
