Brief plot synopsis
It is part of a one woman show and at this point she is reliving a fight she had with her husband. She is raving at him about how lazy he is, how he never makes an effort and how he doesn't even talk to her anymore.
Where did you get them from? E.g. from the internet
This monologue was recomened to be from a friend who is in th same drama society as me out side school. She sent me a selection and someof which she used herself for her LAMDA exams.
Why did you considered the piece?
The words not necessarily have a great deal of meaning and there are mainly mad ramblings. I could also work alot of movement into the piece with pacing an exagerated movements.
How does it show your strengths as a performer?
In the monolgue when she gets really mad I can create a really fierce expression. I also add in loads of moments within the monolgue where she could just be soo mad she pauses to show her trying to calm herself.
Were there any draw backs from choosing this piece?
The piece is like a crazy rant so there are alot of lines to learn and focusing on the might distract me from actually performing.
Could you find a solution to the issue
The main solution is just to learn quickly and practise alot to that the words are in my memory and re-enforce
it with actions for specific lines.
Why did you eventually choose or not choose this audition piece?
I chose this to perform this monolgue because of the movement I can put into it it is more about acting that the lines.
What would be the contrast between this piece and others you have chosen?
The female character in this is very strong and opinionated whereas in other monolgues the characters are vulnerable in some way. The story is about a womens relationship with their partner/ husband and the other I chose is about the relationship with her farther.
Discuss at least two contrast options and what skills these might show at an audition
Text style - versitility if you can perform Shakespeare as well as modern and contempary.
Accents - If you can pull off accents and maintain them.
