161 One-Minute Monologues from Literatue

If you've ever shown up at an audition with a Christopher Durang monologue, only to find that three actresses ahead of you have already done it, or struggled to find a comic or contemporary monologue for an audition, this is the book for you. A wide-ranging selection of smart, funny monologues no one knows about, because they've been taken not from plays but from literature. This is also the only monologue anthology which includes a piece of random email spam you could actually perform. Other highlights include Miss Doxie's "In Which I Use the F Word More Times than is Probably Legal in Many States," Peter Davies' "What You Know," Matthew Ivan Bennett's "Self Sabotage," and the chilling "What the Pharmacist Said." This book will go a long way towards solving any monologue problems you may have.
