look at MAN IN THE MOON MARIGOLDS or AND MRS. REARDON DRINKS A LITTLE...both by Paul Zindel...both have youngish characters, similar to Echo, with big speeches. Zindel is a good choice because often his monologs are neither "all dramatic" or "all comic" but a mixture, which lets you show both in one choice.

Good luck!

knock 'em dead. If you don't get this one, at least you'll have a good monolog for your "bag." i'm proud of you for prepping as well as you can. The director will notice even if you're not chosen for this particular show.

Sorry- can't help you but- nobizlikeshobiz; for my theater class, I picked eleemosynary for the play I wanted to do and I was gonna pick a monolouge from Echo until I realized I couldn't possibly spell the words, let alone pronounce them. I am doing the monolouge by Artie with the lock of hair.

Anyway- good luck!

I'm not familiar with this play. What type of character are you going for?
