  • Three Items from my Truck: A Monologue by Cole Hunter Dzubak
    17 Oct. 2022
    “ The slow build as more detail is dispensed makes your mind wander-wonder. It's creepy because your mind goes there. What dark thoughts come into your head? This definitely up there as one of my fav monologues on NPX. ”
  • I Hate Hospitals - A 2 MINUTE MONOLOGUE by Debra A. Cole
    8 Oct. 2022
    “ Digging deep into the emotional state of her speaker, while perfectly detailing the dissolution of a marriage caused by the other spouse's mental illness beyond repair, Cole devastates us. Read it out loud, take your time. My favorite monologue by her. A smart choice for any monologue on marriage and mental illness. ”
  • Night in Tunisia (a monologue) by Scott Sickles
    2 Oct. 2022
    “ With this short piece, another intimate one that unsettles us, Sickles really makes us think about the future impact of right-wing/Christian nationalism in American -- abroad. This is an imagined future that might come true. if Republicans gain more or total control, not only will our country be radically different in respects to rights and freedoms for LGBTQ folx, but our travel outside the country would also be impacted. ”
  • The Chair by Ruben Carbajal
    17 Sep. 2022
    “ What a great short play for scenic and lighting designers looking for a challenge. A great way to collaborate with an actor and director beat by beat. ”
  • Armrest (a monologue) by Scott Sickles
    2 Sep. 2022
    “ Sickles gives us something that is unfortunately rare on our stages - a role for a large-size character. This demand for respect and dignity, this objection to body shaming, this reality that people like this give up a lot to live in this world --- our theatre needs this. Structurally, this monologue is perfect in how it develops voice and character. ”
  • Raisins by Josie Palmarini
    28 Aug. 2022
    “ The most diabolical fairy ever! You wouldn't want to open your door to this trick 'o treater. Some LOL lines, caustic and downright vicious from a little girl. If you're new to acting or a middle-school champion at monologue competition, you need to try this one out. It's also just perfect for any Halloween festival - it can be played by an adult to make it even funnier. One of my favorite Halloween plays on NPX. ”
  • Before You Go, a monologue by Sam Heyman
    28 Aug. 2022
    “ A touching monologue. There's a tenderness and sweetness of this mother of a young queer son that made me smile. The world would be a safer place, a kinder place with mothers like Heyman's character. A great addition to any festival on queer themes. ”
  • if all that You take from this is courage, then I've no regrets by Nicholas Pilapil
    21 Aug. 2022
    “ Now this is a perfect example of a ten-minute play that does such much in a few pages. It packs an emotional punch, playing with time in surprising ways theatrically, while focusing on a family's history, trauma and dreams. A necessary drama for our times. ”
  • Trisomy by Diana Burbano
    15 Aug. 2022
    “ Burbano captures a voice that Christian fundamentalists banning abortion want to ignore, silence. It's story like this one that shines a light on how loss of necessary medical care truly traumatizes women and impacts their spouse and family. One of the hardest hitting monologues on abortion I've read so far. ”
  • Testifying (a monologue) by Sharon Goldner
    6 Aug. 2022
    “ A harrowing experience with a tornado becomes a survivor's story with some surprising humor and reference. As a testimony at a Senate, it ends with whiplash of words, a call to action. A smart choice for a festival on climate change. ”
