<p>Re: the post above, I would just encourage you guys to read VERY CAREFULLY the advice and instructions provided by the programs you’re auditioning for–really analyze and understand what they want you to show them. </p>
<p>In past threads, people have mentioned the Drama Bookshop in NYC as a good source for plays/scripts, and plenty of students have gone there in person to browse the shelves. They have a link on their website now for monologues–it includes different categories (including type, period, age of character, male/female) with short descriptions of the plays and a link for ordering the book. The lists actually include most of the plays that we ferreted out for my son’s monologues–there’s some good (NOT overused) stuff in there. Since I"m not sure if it’s okay to post the link here, just google-search “drama bookshop” and look on the right-hand side of the page under “special sections” for the link to monologues. Hope that helps.</p>
