This book is invaluable!"--Mary Jane Mahan        Looking for movie monologues, humorous monologues, comedy monologues, short female monologues, short male monologues, comedic or dramatic monologues for men and women, and audition monologues?  Unraveling the Mystery of MONOLOGUES contains 50 monologues for men and women they've never heard before.  From the book: "As a busy Los Angeles Talent Manager and Feature Film producer, I am constantly exposed to material, scripts, monologues, treatments.   So when I am listening to an actor do a monologue, the quality of the material matters a lot. I am a professional responding, or not, to that abstract quality that catches my attention and spirit.  A good monologue for this reason is best if it is not something I have heard over and over.  Ideally the circumstances of the piece have a clear and simple through line.  I appreciate that this book has developed material that is solid and actable." --STEVEN NASH, Arts and Letters Management, Arts and Letters Entertainment, Former President, Talent Managers Association, Los Angeles "Because of our industry, of course, I want to hear a monologue that makes sense for that actor, as far as age range, type, etc.  Something we could realistically see them doing in film or television.  I like monologues that aren't too long and have nuances, you know, not just one level.  I don't want to see a piece that's all intense or quiet and sad.  I like something that has an emotional range.  If it's a comedic piece, funny is great, but it's nice to have truthful or personal moments in there as well." --REBECCA SHRAGER, Owner, People Store and Co-Owner, Hot Shot Kids, Atlanta "The biggest problem for me is when a talent does a film monologue and they emulate the actor from the film.  One actor came in with two monologues which had been performed by two very recognizable stars, and of course I'd seen the movies.  Had the talent shown me the same monologues, but with their own personal style and interpretation, that might have interested me." --VINCE CIRRINCIONE, Manager, Vincent Cirrincione Associates, Ltd., Los Angeles "If you've got a monologue and you're worth calling yourself an actor, you have to own it.  You have to be prepared at any time in your life, anywhere, to pull it out and be brilliant.  A real actor should have at least two monologues.  It could be 20 years old, but you've got to own it, it's got to be part of you, like breathing in and breathing out, you can do it anywhere.  It's part of your toolbox." --NEIL BAGG, Agent, Don Buchwald & Associates, Los Angeles
