Monologue shortlist

Romeo and Juliet
Although I wouldn't choose a classical monologue as it wouldn't really reflect to my personal experiences, both of my schools require one classical monologue so I chose to look at classical monologues aswell at modern monologues. I think that this monologue is ratable because it's about getting something that you can't get even though you're so desperate to get that one thing.
Duchess of Malfi
I chose this monologue because one of the schools asks for a different type of classical monologues. I thought that I would have two and choose one. I think this is relatable to me and it is engaging and a serious monologue and would be good if I put it with a comedy monologue .

Curious Incident
I think that this will be a good monologue because it will show a wide range of acting skills as he is autistic meaning that's it's different to all my other monologues and Christopher is 15 and I know what it is like to be a 15 year old. I have also seen this play done with multiple actors in this role making it easier to give me an idea on what I can do with the monologue

Wasted talent
I think that this is a good monologue for me to use because it's modern and the character is around my age meaning that I can relate to him. Also, I know how it is to lose somebody that you love and I know how the character would feel.

Single Crutch
I think that this monologue would be good for me as I know how annoying it is when somebody won't give me something. I can also show more than one emotion and I think that this monologue definitely tells more of a story than all of the other monologues that I have done.

Like dreaming, backwards
I think that this monologue would be good for me because the character in it shows a wide range of emotion and once again tells a story that you can build upon making the audience feel more engaged and connected with me.
