I decided that I would change my contemporary monologue because I felt like that the character of Christopher would be too hard to do as an audition piece and would require a lot of research that I wouldn't be able to do in enough time like they can if they are playing the character on the stage in a production.
I have changed my monologue to a play called "Wasted talent" by Josef Arnone.
This is my new monologue:
"He stopped believing, that’s it, that’s why he failed…he quit. So much talent, so
much potential but he stopped believing in himself…he lost his way cause he couldn’t figure
out what to do next with his career and I guess all the stress added up and finally broke
him…his music was great…I would listen to it all the time…it would get me into a pumped up
emotional state and his lyrics never got old…no one gave him a chance but I think that in
today’s world that doesn’t matter; he didn’t give himself the chance to take control of his
career the way I knew he could have. Maybe it was fear from doubting himself and it
crippled his ambition.
He did it for so long with no financial gain, no recognition for his genius and he couldn’t do it
no more…he gave up and that’s why he hung himself in his studio; he couldn’t do it anymore.I will miss him very much, he was a dear friend and a talented artist and the world has been
robbed of his contribution to humanity.
It hurts. It’s sad. It didn’t have to happen this way."
