    Michele Clarke creates a strong character in a quick monologue. What's in a name, indeed?

  • Barry Wallace: CHOOSING GRACE

    I think this is my favorite kind of monologue - unanchored to a larger work, not tethered with expectations that an audience know their backstory from earlier in the play. Just a quick, meaningful character study of someone we suddenly meet, get to know, then join then as they go through some kind of change. Or in the case of Michele's graceful work, share the character's recollective joy of self-discovery. Would love to see this on stage!
