Product Description

Product Description

All actors and acting teachers need The Ultimate Scene and Monologue Sourcebook, the invaluable guide to finding just the right piece for every audition. The unique format of the book is ideal for acting teachers who want their students to understand each monologue in context. This remarkable book describes the characters, action, and mood for more than 1,000 scenes in over 300 plays. Using these guidelines, the actor can quickly pinpoint the perfect monologue, then find the text in the Samuel French or Dramatist Play Service edition of the play. Newly revised and expanded, the book includes the authors own assessment of each monologue.

Awesome Monologue Book! 29 Jan 2010
By Ashley Willes - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase
For anyone, whether you're a teen or all the way up to your 50's, this is a great book to have when you need common monologue practice or something new that no one's heard of before! Not only does it give you great pieces to work with, it'll tell you who it's for [age, sex, with a partner, alone] as well as the tone it sets with a brief description of what's going on! This is not a book that PROVIDES the monolgues, but the sources to it and how to go about acting it. It's a source that'll quickly show you if the monologues made for you or isn't. It's a quick find and amazing to understand. I can't wait to try this out for an audition!

A MUST for actors, directors, coaches 11 Dec 2009
By J. K. Smith - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase
Ed's book is the BEST for finding excellent material for scene work, monologues, and even for getting acquainted with plays you may not know that well. It's thorough, well-written, and well-organized to easily find what you need. Ed is a superb acting coach himself, so he knows what he's doing when putting this together for the rest of us...

An indispensable addition to your acting/coaching/teaching library...
Don't be fooled! 9 April 2012
By Maya Durham - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase
Don't be fooled by the high ratings, this "sourcebook" does not even have monologues or scenes in it. It has short synopsises of the plays these recommended scenes and monologues are from that could be found online, but it does not have the actual material. You would have to go online or buy the whole play yourself in order to have what you need! I was very disappointed upon receiving this order. This is good if all you want is summaries of some good plays, but if you want hard copies of monologues I would suggest you get something else.
