I have several monologue books but this is one of my favorites. For each monologue, the book lists the name of the piece, the author, genre (contemporary or classic), age range of the character, and background information on the character and plot. Most of the auditions I attend call for a one or two minute monologue so this book really comes in handy. It contains a lot of monologues from plays I haven't come across so I know the auditioners haven't heard the same piece over and over. I like the fact that it's separated by male & female monologues, as well as comic and seriocomic monologues. I wish the table of context further grouped the monologues by age, but other than that, I have no complaints.
