read Isn't it Romantic. I played Harriet last summer, and while I haven't done it myself, I'm sure you could peice some of her lines together and come up with something fresh. There is one scene where she sure does a lot of talking.
"This is what I trained to do, and this is what I love about theater. What I love about being an actress is being able to really look into myself and understand another human being. And out my own self, to shape and form and fashion a real human being--and to present that in such a way that people see something of themselves or their own understanding in that human being."
