I need monologue suggestions!!!

I'm auditioning for NYU's acting program in the fall and I need two, contrasting, contemporary monologues. Anyone have suggestions?

Right now the only thing I'm looking at is a monologue from Catholic School Girls that is very funny but will need a little cutting.

Please help!

Thanks, I'll look into those.

BTW, I guess I should specify that I'm looking for pieces for a girl, late teens/early 20s mostly.

Thanks, Keithmichael, I needed these too. I wanted to do something from Proof but Catherine doesn't have any monologues that are good out of context. I don't think.

I'd love to do Proof... unfortunately I'm not really old enough yet. But I'm actually someone who would understand all the math!

Thanks keithmichael... I've got quite a reading list now!

this is me adding more...the rimers of eldritch, a raisin in the sun (african american), jitney (african American), The piano lesson (african american), Seven Guitars, Crimes of the Heart, The Miss Firecracker Contest, The Glass Menagerie, I Oughta Be in Pictures, Biloxi Blues, barefoot in the Park, Brilliant Traces (Cindy Lou Johnson), Where has Tommy Flowers Gone, Collected stories (DOnald Marguiles), Our Town (overdone.),Keely and Du, A Yound Lady of Property, The Crucible, A View from the bridge, All My Sons, Waiting for the Parade. sorry if there are any repeats.

Keep in mind that you need to choose monologues that are age appropriate, in other words, roles for which you would have the chance to be cast. Make sure you have read the entire play and be familiar enough with it to be able to discuss it because the auditors for Tisch often will ask you questions. One last bit of advice, know the monologues inside out, backwards forwards. Occasionally, they will stop you and ask you a question, then ask you to resume where you left off. Don't make the mistake of only knowing how to do the entire monologue from the first line.

Sorry, I wasn't trying to be sarcastic (I realize it came off that way). I really do thank you for all your suggestions.

And thanks, erinrebecca, for your advice too! That's important to know...
