Do a monologue that is played by a kid so that way they see you as a kid because that is what you will be playing if they pick you.


Try This Monologue From YOU'RE A GOOD MAN CHARLIE BROWN. In the character of Sally

Coathanger Sculpture
Sally: A 'C'? A 'C'? I got a 'C' on my coathanger sculpture? How could anyone get a 'C' in coathanger sculpture? May I ask a question? Was I judged on the piece of sculpture itself? If so, is it not true that time alone can judge a work of art? Or was I judged on my talent? If so, is it fair that I be judged on a part of my life over which I have no control? If I was judged on my effort, then I was judged unfairly, for I tried as hard as I could! Was I judged on what I had learned about this project? If so, then were not you, my teacher, also being judged on your ability to transmit your knowledge to me? Are you willing to share my 'C'? Perhaps I was being judged on the quality of coathanger itself out of which my creation was made...now is this not also unfair? Am I to be judged by the quality of coathangers that are used by the drycleaning establishment that returns our garments? Is that not the responsibility of my parents? Should they not share my 'C'? (SFX: the teachers voice is heard offstage [brief unintelligible squawk voice mixed with electronic static)) Thank you, Miss Othmar. (to audience) The squeaky wheel gets the grease! (exits)

Or Try This Monologue From THE FANTASTICKS
“This morning a bird woke me up. It was a lark or a peacock. Or something like that. Some strange sort of bird that I’d not heard. And I said, ‘hello.’ And it vanished: flew away. The very minute I said ‘hello.’ It was mysterious, so do you know what I did? I went over to the mirror and brushed my hair two hundred times without stopping. And as I was brushing it, my hair turned gold! No, honestly! Gold! And then red. And then sort of a deep blue when the sun hit it. I’m sixteen years old, and every day something happens to me. I don’t know what to make of it. When I get up in the morning to get dressed, I can tell: something’s different. I like to touch my eyelids because they’re never quite the same. Oh! Oh! Oh! I hug myself till my arms are blue, then I sloce my eyes and I cry and cry till the tears come down, and I taste them. Ah! I love to taste my tears. I am special. I am special. Please God, please – don’t let me be normal.”

Another good option is this monologue from OUR TOWN. It was originally a scene but can be cut into a very good monologue.

Emily:
“(Defensive.) I’m not mad at you. (Dreading to face the issue.) But, since you ask me, I might as well say is right out, George – (turns to him, catches sight of TEACHER, who has passed above to their right.) Oh goodbye, Mrs. Corcoran. (Faces down again. Then finding it hard to say) I don’t like the whole change that’s come over you in the last year. (She glances at him.) I’m sorry if that hurts your feelings; but I’ve just got to – tell the truth and shame the devil.
(Facing mostly out, on the verge of tears.) Well up to a year ago, I used to like you a lot. And I used to watch you while you did everything – because we’d been friends so long. And then you began spending all your time at baseball. (She bites the word.) And you never stopped to speak to anyone anymore – not to really speak – not even to your own family, you didn’t. And George, it’s a fact – ever since you’ve been elected Captain, you’ve got awful stuck up and conceited, and all the girls say so. And it hurts me to hear ‘em say it; but I got to agree with ‘em a little, because it’s true. I always expect a man to be perfect and I think he should be. (All innocence, yet firm.) Well, my father is. And as far as I can see, your father is. There’s no reason on earth why you shouldn’t be too.
But you might as well know right now that I’m not perfect – It’s not easy for a girl to be perfect as a man, because, well, we girls are more – nervous. Now, I’m sorry I said all that about you. I don’t know what made me say it. (Cries.) Now I can see it’s not true at all. And I suddenly feel that it’s not important, anyway. (Cries.)”





ANYWAYS GOOD LUCK!

Do the one from Nanny diaries where she is yelling at the lady for not taking care of her child. Or pick a monologue from a movie you like. Find a part which you think you can do and see if you can do it.

Ten Things I Hate About You

written by Karen McCullah Lutz & Kirsten Smith; adapted from the play by William Shakespeare


Kat: I hate the way you talk to me. And the way you cut your hair. I hate the way you drive my car. I hate it when you stare I hate your big dumb combat boots. And the way you read my mind. I hate you so much it makes me sick-- it even makes me rhyme. I hate the way you're always right. I hate it when you lie. I hate it when you make me laugh -- even worse when you make me cry. I hate it that you're not around. And the fact that you didnt call. But mostly I hate the way I don't hate you - - not even close, not even a little bit, not even at all.
