Question
I am trying to find a monologue to do it front of 12 agencies. I want something funny, witty, and surprising, for women 27-35. I CAN't FIND ANYTHING! Please help!
Try some plays by Caryl Churchill, like Cloud Nine or Top Girls. She's British, so you would need a good dialect.
For something America, try Clean House by Sarah Ruhl or Living Out by Lisa Loomer. Lisa Loomer has a lot of good stuff - try Living Out or Expecting Isabel or The Waiting Room.
Good luck!
