Describing Life:
Monolog is an ancient form of performance. Here is the actor, alone on the stage, telling tales, confiding secrets, sharing laughter or tears with the audience...
One actor does it all. She can become whoever she chooses, hiding her thoughts and feelings from the audience, fooling them into believing her tears, her laughter, perhaps her lies as well.
These fifty original monologs were created to give the actor multiple ways to conceal or reveal herself. I’ve aimed to provide a range of age-appropriate pieces suited for audition, for performance, for class work or for study.
Several of the monologs in this collection have won awards. Others are so new that you may be the very first to work on them.
A monolog is an opportunity.
The actor makes it happen.

Tales of Hollywood TALES OF HOLLYWOOD tells the Great Stories and Origins behind the early days of the film industry. Included are such tales as the early filmmakers greasing LA streets so they could cause car accidents, which they could secretly, film and save money on stuntmen. Charlie Chaplin used studio carpenters to build his house rather than real ones than real architects and it used to fall apart from the inside. Cowboys unable to find work on the screen rode through dusty Hollywood Streets shooting bullets through windows and lampposts. Featuring little known stories about stars such as DOUGLAS FAIRBANKS, MARY PICKFORD, LUCILLE BALL, BORIS KARLOFF, WALT DISNEY, CHARLIE CHAPLIN and SHIRLEY TEMPLE just to name a few. Fully orchestrated background music and sound effects enhance the narrative.
