Description
From the Book Back
“This collection has a simple aim: to make matches. You’re an actor searching for the right monologue—for auditions or acting class—and here are cuttings from dozens of the most exciting American plays of the last two decades. The material might be said to he searching, too. It’s on the lookout for actors who will connect deeply, who have the emotional availability and the craft to deliver these monologues into the world with their complexity intact. It seeks actors who think on their feet, who understand in their bodies the impression contemporary life makes on a character. Like any matchmaker, though, this book offers only an introduction. The work is left to you.” — from the introduction by Todd London
Publishing Info
Contemporary American Monologues for Women edited by Todd London. From the Third Printing in March 2000 by Theatre Communications Group. This measures 8-3/8″ x 5-3/8″ and has 153 numbered pages. The original price was $10.95.
Condition
Enlarge scan for better view. In very good condition with some light storage on the outer corners. The spine has not been opened/creased and most pages are as new. I found a few “X’s” in ink by some titles. I presume these were ones used or considered. No names or writing noted. Stored in and shipped from clean, smoke-free home.
Shipping
Unless you request otherwise, I will wrap the book in plastic wrap to help protect it from the elements, create a custom-made cardboard box to ship it in, and send via Media Mail with Delivery Confirmation tracking. See the Shipping page for the cost to send a one-pound Media Mail package. Insurance is an additional cost as described. I am delighted to combine postage and insurance costs if you purchase more than one item. The second item may travel for free or just a few cents more — so it’s worth taking a look at my other items before you complete your order.
