Monologue Project: Instructions
Our first performance project! Woop!
The monologue texts are available on my website (see the link in the post below this one). I posted HTML copies now, so you don't have to download the entire Word document to find a monologue.
- Post a comment here and tell me which monologue you plan to do.
- Work on your scene analysis sheet and turn it in as soon as you finish.
- Start working on memorization.
- Long monologues can be cut down (try to keep at least 25 lines). Talk to me about it before you alter the text that you're memorizing. . .
PROJECT INFO
Scene analysis due: Wednesday, August 31st
Workshop days: September 8 or 9th (you'll have class one day and SH the next, unless you want to just come listen to the workshops)
Monologue performance: September 22 or 23 (attendance required on both days)
*Expect this performance to be for a wider audience than just your class. More details later when I've worked them out.
We'll spend the next several class periods working on specific skills you'll need to do well on the monologue, including subtexting and gestures.
And in case you think I'm getting off too easy by making you do all this work, I'm going to do one of these myself. And you'll get to critique me in both the workshop and performance stages. It's only fair . . . . =)

Hey Mrs. Ramey,
Just wanted to let you know that I am planning on doing the Kate part from Taming of the Shrew. That is one of my favorite Shake Plays! See you Monday!
