Lump: 19 Monologues from a 27-Year-Old Breast Cancer Survivor (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780615484501)

"Biting, Unsentimental... The monologues give voice to a wry, Gen-Y sensibility that is poignantly disarming..." Kirkus Review

This remarkable collection of monologues for young women showcases the complex, unique, and true stories of a woman unexpectedly thrust into the world of breast cancer.

Ranging from the comedic to the dramatic, and often incorporating both styles at once, these quirky scenes range from 1 to 3 minutes long and feature purposeful story arcs and strong characterization. The works include soliloquies, storytelling, and acting monologues.

Contemporary, fresh, and adaptable, LUMP is perfect for auditioning and classroom exploration.

Monologues include:

• Whipping Off the Wig
• The Princess with the Pea
• Checking Out the Goods in the Chemo Room
• The Crone-Goddess-in-Training Definition of a Hot Flash
• The Power of Puff
