Selection of Monologues

Lawrence Harbison has selected 100 terrific monologues for women – from contemporary plays, all by characters between the ages of 18 and 35 – perfect for auditions or class. There are comic monologues (laughs) and dramatic monologues (no laughs). Most have a compelling present-tense action for actors to perform. A few are story monologues – and they’re great stories.

Featured Playwrights and Contributors

Actors will find pieces by star playwrights such as Don Nigro, Itamar Moses, Adam Bock, and Jane Martin; by exciting up-and-comers such as Nicole Pandolfo, Peter Sinn Nachtrieb, Crystal Skillman, Greg Kalleres, and Frances Ya-Chu Cowhig; and information on getting the complete text of each play.

Why This Book Is a Must-Have

This is a must-have resource in the arsenal of every aspiring actor hoping to knock ’em dead with her contemporary piece after bowling over teachers and casting directors alike with a classical excerpt.
