Auditions and Scenes from Shakespeare (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781703107982)

Finding monologues for auditions or multi-character scenes for scene study can be a daunting task. Auditions and Scenes from Shakespeare makes the job easier by identifying 700 excellent but lesser known pieces for actors or teachers to use. Entries are categorized by gender (including any gender), by length, and by numbers and genders of characters for scene study.In addition, monologues and scenes from some of Shakepeare's contemporaries are also included.Notes include cuts to combine multiple speeches into monologues or removing bit characters from a scene. Additional notes include context for the scene and whether special skills are useful (e.g. singing, fencing, etc.). In order to provide the most entries, the entries provide a reference to the pieces, not the lines themselves. Anyone serious about performing Shakespeare should have no trouble finding the actual scripts to use.
