OK!. You said funny monologue!. Everything’s funny if you want it to be!. Think about what you find/think is funny so that you’ll be comfortable and go from there remembering that you make it funny!. You have to get into it, can’t be shy at all!. Exaggerate, exaggerate, exaggerate everything!. Body, movement, sound, sound effects, voice, emotions!.

Physical humor/slapstick still works!. Say the sob, sigh, scream i!.e!. Waaaaa Auugh! Yeow! Yikes! Gasp for air, fling your arms, yourself around, drop to the floor exhausted when you first walk out, or during, or at the end!.

My niece who acted in grammar, high school, and college used to take a well known dramatic monologue, focus in on what should be the movement and emotion, and turn them silly, delivering it in some outrageous voice or personality (e!.g!. little girl, clueless, druggie, soap opera, wood nymph) wrung with overblown emotion and physicality like something by Mel Brooks or Monty Python!. Can’t guarantee it will work, but it worked for her!.

Don’t worry about the time, just cut it off at the minute – just make it funny!. Surrender to the emotion!. For example, if you’re on the floor emoting about Romeo (or Juliet), give up, “I can’t go on!.!.!.” “I give up” and lay there exhausted, or get up and walk away, or sort of get up and crawl away OR don’t give up, fight back, stop mid sentence, pause for a beat and say “What am I saying!? Or “Helloooo!” " Hello, hello, hello -- whatever!" get up and walk away disgusted!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
