Activated Monologues for Female Characters is a resource for actors filled with dynamic comedic and dramatic monologues from contemporary plays. There are endless discoveries to make as you craft them for auditions, study, and performance. Each monologue introduction includes a highlighted action as a springboard to approach the piece. Engaging prompts throughout the book offer helpful notes from the play, related monologues and works to explore, and exercises to develop performance. Best of all, every monologue includes a link to the play on the Stage Partners site, where you can read the entire script for free!
