Description
The monologs in this collection were specifically chosen for actors 15-25 years of age. The dramatic situations and themes will resonate with this age group, for they address the major trends and conflicts of today through revealing glimpses of society. Particular emphasis was placed on gender and ethnic diversity. Included are many selections for women and minority actors. Plays with Hispanic, African-American and Asian backgrounds were selected to reflect the increasing cultural pluralism in schools and in society at large. The introduction features information on selecting and performing monologs, goals and obstacles, staging and more. Each monolog contains introductory notes describing the character and setting the context for the piece. - from Amzon
