Choice of monologues

These monologues are the ones that I have chose:

Curious Incident
I chose this for my modern monologue because I think that the charecter is close to my age and I know what it's like to be a 15 year old boy. He is also the same gender making me more realistic and I know how to be more like a boy than a girl. It also will show that I am versatile actor as Christopher is autistic and none of my other monologues are spoken by a charecter who is autistic showing a range of skills. Also, I am familiar with this play as I have performed in it before, have seen it live and have watched a filmed version a couple of times.

Wasted talent

I have chose this emotional because it is quite emotional towards a friend. I feel like emotional is one of my strengths. The fact that he is also the same gender makes it more realistic and the charecter is a teenager which is around my age which also makes it look much more realistic. This contrasts with my other modern monologue which is much more passionate and is a totally different charecter.

Romeo and Juliet

I chose this for my classical monologue because I think that the charecter is close to my age and I know what it's like to be a teenager. He is also the same gender making me more realistic as I know how to be more like a boy than a girl. It also will show that I am versatile actor as Christopher is autistic and Romeo has no learning difficulties showing a complete contrast of charecters. Also they are done in different times aswell meaning different language being used aswell. Also, I am familiar with this play as I have seen it doesn't ne before making me more familiar with his whole story and journey throughout the play.
