Are you tired of hunting for quality monologues for exams, competitions, or auditions? Are you bored of playing the same old characters? Look no further than this book. A dynamic collection of original, stand-alone monologues written by artistic director, young actors' agent, and arts educationalist Pamela Cassells-Totton. Pamela's wealth of experience in performing arts education led her to write this diverse repertoire of monologues in order to offer her students material which would challenge and inspire them as well as showcase their skills as young artists. The characters within this collection are multidimensional and diverse; some of the monologues have been handpicked from acclaimed, verbatim plays devised for theatre in education projects; others are stand-alone and tried and tested pieces which young actors have enjoyed playing for decades.
