If you want your adrenalin to pump, this is the monologue to read or produce. From experimenting as a teen to a meet-up at a rest stop, a man learns he is not who he pretends to be in his life. Luckily the monologue takes place in 1975. Here's hoping men and women of today are more enlightened and not afraid to come out.

Proud of My name is an apt title for this moving monologue. Things aren't always what they seem and a young woman suffering from diabetes is not a drunk. This short piece takes us on quite a journey in one page. Thanks to a man passing by, we have a good ending. But the police should have apologized!

This monologue is haunting. The listener feels Karlie's pain right to their very core. Too many years of abuse and embarrassment would turn anyone hard. I wouldn't forgive the mother for that kind of behavior.

A word of warning: don't read this play when hungry! Donuts and pizza! This two-hander with twenty something men is strange and delightful. Colin is weird when he approaches Dominic waiting for the train. Finally we learn that they knew each other in school and in the end, both come to terms with their past lives.

A person not being what they seem...every ones nightmare. This extreme short play is a scary "slice of life" and you'll know what I mean when you read it. So much happens in this brief encounter. And the title is so apt. Bravo.

This is a serious short play about family and death. It is also has a bunch of laugh out lines dealing with the ashes of Grandpa. Great piece for three women.

This is a joyous short play about love and forgiveness no matter how hard it is. A small family is disrupted by the news of a death. The death comes with a surprise that the son Paul didn't expect. But love is most important and what brings the family back together.

This is a deep, and scary monologue about a woman who has plainly had enough and is going to do something about it. The visuals are scary enough, but the intent is downright deadly. Don't cross her on the way!

This is a sensitive and beautiful monologue dealing with the premature death of a young man. Taken from the play FAMILY BY NUMBERS, it hits hard with the pain of death and the aftermath for his family. This is a brilliant dramatic monologue for a young male actor.
