    Clever, witty, and engaging, George Sapio's "Burgers" offers actors a relatable monologue they can really sink their teeth into (har har). Audiences, too, will appreciate this richly descriptive, inside peek at the lengths actors are asked to go to in hopes of landing the part. I especially loved the zigzag paths and full-circle moments that tie everything together. Lots of humor and life packed in this short piece!

    This monologue hits home for me! After my own burger commercial audition, where a fellow actor warned me not to eat the burgers, I couldn't believe how accurately this experience was portrayed with such humor by Sapio. Produce this! It's a rollercoaster of laughter, cringes, and maybe even some second thoughts about fast food. I have a feeling Bobby DiNero would get a kick out of it, too!

    Not only have I read it, I've organized a staged reading. A very funny star turn for the actor.
