Kelvin, Wake Up! (monologue)

  • Ryan Vaughan: Kelvin, Wake Up! (monologue)

    Wow! This piece packs a ton of emotion in such a short amount of time. As both an actor and a playwright I love reading pieces aloud. I read this one and my emotional support cat actually came over to me to comfort me. The words are incredibly moving and unfortunately tell a story that we hear far too often. Very beautiful piece.
