Question
Hi,
Im 14 and Im going to a casting call for Nickolodon (My mom knows and I checked it out. Its Legit.lol)

Anyway we have to do a monologue and for Nick I thought comedy would be the best choice.
Are there any monologues or plays I can peice together that has that nick-ish sort of humor or something like it?
Thanx

Answer
I don't really deal with your age actors, however there are plenty of monologues that you could probably find to do.
Google the word monologue and you'll find numerous website that let you download stuff.
Let me tell you that it's best to find one from a play or a movie or tv show, instead of trying to make one up.
Neil Simon (playwrite) has some very funny plays with your age actors in them, you might want to look into his works ie; Brighton Beach Memoirs, or Broadway Bound, or lost in Yonkers, maybe the opening of Laughter on the 23 Floor.
Good Luck.
