In addition to all of the wonderful suggestions above. Monologue books can be a good resource for finding monologues. I suggest that if you find a monologue that you like in a book you then order the full play, (1) because you should always read the entire play before performing the monologue so that you know the context (2) You may find a different monologue from the same place that was not in the monologue book… plays in monologue books tend to be overdone.

If your local bookstore does not have monologue books try looking at one of the many on-line bookstores. Make sure that you are ordering a book that is a compilation of monologues from published plays, not a book of monologues that were written specifically for the monologue book.

Good luck!
