What's the consensus?

Is the male tuna fish monologue from Durang's Laughing Wild too overdone for an audition?

Thanks...

Copied and pasted from the SETC Auditions website:

Monologues That Are Done Too Much:
"Anal Probe" | "Jockstrap" | "Tuna Fish Sandwich" | "Jesus Picture"

So, at least at those particular unifieds, companies have indicated that it's overdone. I would keep looking if I were you.

Yes, it is! I'm in college and everyone has done this monologue at some point.
