←Recommendations of a found monologue

A refreshing and original take on a monologue. I love sharing this with my playwriting students!

This monologue speaks to our age. It resonates not just in the words but in the source material. Ruben Carbajal created a brilliant and heartbreaking monologue out of Google search queries. This piece is fantastic.

The need behind many of these questions is almost haunting. The interpretative possibilities are endless. There is just so much resonance and potential humor packed into this short found piece.

Why is this piece so brilliant?

Ooh, I love this. Simple concept with multitudes of interpretations and so much room for the actor to play.

Weirdly enough, this piece is both all over the map and also seems to follow a natural flow in a stream of consciousness sort of way. It's brilliant and amazingly simple. I'll bet an audience would find it fun wondering where it goes next. I know I did.

This is a truly inventive and intelligent piece. It says quite a lot about the human condition in such a short amount of space. I imagine that a number of actors and directors would have fun bringing this monologue to life!

This is so fabulous! Would be a gift for any actor. I would absolutely love to hear this performed!

I CONCUR!!!

The directing, design, and performance possibilities with the piece are limitless. I want to see what a composer and choreographer can bring to the proceedings.

A terrific idea executed with Carbajal’s signature poetic precision and panache!

Wow, such a simple idea and yet the potential for performance and staging is boundless. I would love to see this performed by multiple actors and directors to see what unique takes they could bring to the material.
