Not getting the part? Not getting callbacks? Are you angry and depressed at the results of applying archaic rules to superficial, low-stakes pointless monologues because you know you’re capable of so much more in a performance?

Break the Rules and Get the Part: Thirty Monologues for Women not only teaches how and why to break the outdated rules you were taught, but unlike other “story monologues,” each one-minute monologue in this book is written with a clearly defined active and emotional arc in the present.
