About the Book:

100 Great Monologs is an excellent resource for any theatre library.

100 Great Monologs by Rebecca Young is a versatile collection of Monologues, Duologues, and Triologues for student actors. This collection of performance scripts runs the entire gamut of teenage joys, insecurities and tragic difficulties.

The scripts in 100 Great Monologs challenge both the performer and the audience with a situation that requires thinking to resolve. They are superb for classroom use, contest competitions, discussion starters or audition scripts. The book is divided into three sections: Triologues – separate monologues for three performers speaking viewpoints on a single theme; Duologues – monologues for two performers on a theme; Monologues – one-person commentaries on a wide variety of subjects, happy and sad. All of the monologues in 100 Great Monologs are non-theatrical in style – they speak as teenagers live and move.
