  • There It Is
    24 Jul. 2023
    These monologues work as interior monologues or soliloquies or even as ruminations that audience members overhear as if they're in earshot like a stranger at a bar, bus stop. These can be produced without setting/place, a bare stage/Zoom screen, but they can be given scenic design, why not? - it's open to interpretation by director and actor. The fragmentation of thought captures the speaker's melancholy, tedium of existence, and longing that at times is really funny. And relatable.
  • Severed Hand [Monologue]
    24 Jul. 2023
    An ingenious way to explore disability from the perspective of a body part. Surprisingly funny and emotional. It would be an unexpected treat for an audience to see a hand as character. A scenic and lighting designer would have a fun time. Focus on hand, not actor's body - director and actor would have a fun challenge.

    Space warp with the coolest triplets in the multi-dimensional universe in this sci-fi comic play. So much fun, filled with Alice-in-Wonderland/Doctor Who craziness. Your kid actors and theatre students (of costume, design) will love producing this for their parents and friends. Easy to produce. Connect with Kosnik, a theatre teacher and practitioner with years of experience with kids.

    What makes play more than a comic stunt is its serious exploration of marital themes. It forces its character Cindi and the audience members to consider Beth's questions and consider when its best to leave or stay. The end of the play is hilarious and wacky but also its lovely. This is such a great comic play that will get productions all over the globe.
  • Composed in Prison Monologue
    24 Apr. 2023
    A stirring monologue that is more than a history lesson, but an inspiring piece that reminds us the fight for equality for women is far from over since the fight for voting rights.
  • Couch to 5K Monologue

    An actress will have fun bringing this character voice to the stage.
  • 1 in 30 million (a monologue)

    It's more than about a talking lobster because Lawing never forgets about empathy and emotion. I'd love to see an actor in a lobster costume bring this rare gem of a play to stage.
  • It was Me: A Monologue
    5 Apr. 2023
    How to move from a position of ignorance to a position of acceptance and safety? This brief monologue explores that journey of change through a story about a trans child and their parent. This monologue could make some people really think again about parental rights in respects to a child's education differently and how the problem is really not school or the child but the parent.
  • A SHRUNKEN PROMISE
    25 Mar. 2023
    A monologue for any actor, any adult age, any size, race, gender expression. Paulsen gifts us a poem-monologue that's super short but heavy in emotional impact, speaking for many of us that are disenchanted in our country disowning democracy. It's also inspirational and hopeful.
  • A Beautiful Hiding - a monologue
    15 Mar. 2023
    Character revealed through processing something traumatic or life-changing, after some big reveal -- that makes for great theatre. This is a fine example. An actor in her 60s should check this out.
