Umm...are you referring to:

Motormouth Mabel: ...and I've been looking at the door longer than any of you.

Tracy: What door?

Motormouth Mabel: The front door.

That's the ONLY thing in the show that even comes close to your question (and I'm paraphrasing because my memory isn't that good).

Where's Marc Shaiman? He could help you out with that.

...but I wouldn't look for juicy monologues in musicals, in general. The "books" are usually very tightly written, and any character that has enough to say to fill up a monologue would most likely be said in a solo musical number, rather than with the spoken word.

There's always Doubt I'm sure they would have something.
