This second volume of Competition Monologues is, like the first
volume, designed specifically for young actors 18-28 years old. The
selections are again drawn from American plays produced by
professional regional theatres across the nation during the past
few years. Because of this the scripts, with few exceptions, cannot
be readily found in published form, and the monologues are
therefore infrequently performed and highly original. As a result
of suggestions from numerous coaches and drama teachers across the
nation who have used the first volume in their classes and
workshops, the editor has included longer selections in this second
volume. Hopefully this will help the general reader and theatre
practitioner to gain an understanding of the range and quality of
solid dramatic writing which characterizes the contemporary
American theatre and enable acting instructors to use the
selections as longer exercises in their general acting and theatre
performance classes. The reference section has been completely
updated to reflect the wealth of material which has recently
appeared in the monologue and auditioning field. The combination of
originality and vital dramatic writing makes this anthology unique
in the field as a resource book for young actors.
