This is a diverse and exciting new collection of modern and historical pieces for young performers, aged 7 to 17 years. A selection of speeches designed to empower and authenticate young girls, teenagers, and individuals who identify as female, as well as numerous gender-fluid roles. The monologues are suitable for acting examinations, competitions, and auditions – or any situation where a solo scene is required from a published book of monologues. For those learners who study LAMDA examinations, the collection provides options for the learner’s ‘own choice’ category from grades Entry – Grade 5. Vitally, the themes are fresh and relevant to young people in a modern world; giving learners wider opportunities to explore, learn, and grow as actors, inspired by new and original writing, which is fun, challenging, and meaningful to perform.
