Wondering if anyone can give advice on good choices for monologues? DD has a modern monologue and we’re currently choosing a Shakespeare one.

Re: Auditioning for 2020 entry
My advise is not to choose from monologue books, they tend to be learnt out of context and very over performed. If you look on Amazon top 100 plays you will find some great modern play ideas, Amazon always then prompt "others you may like" which takes you to some lesser known titles. In ad...

Re: Looking ahead and being realistic!
If she is strong all round and is a true triple threat with string acting then dont forget to include Rose Buford and Mountview and Central in her list of potential schools. These are among the strongest in the country. Unfortunately she wouldn’t get any f/t musical theatre training at Rose Bruford...
