Come Join Me

Monologue 4: From the Outsider. Karen, late twenty’s. In this scene she is wearing food stained clothes, hair is a mess, but an attempt has been made to do it nicely - it looks unwashed, greasy. A little eye make- up is worn. Her friend Josie has come round to take her out. I look like shit? Thanks! How can you even say that? Have you ever lost someone? So how can you tell me you understand how I feel?! You've not got a clue, you can't even start to imagine of the pain that I feel. Ill tell you, but then you just pretend to care, or try to understand. For fucks sake, I don't want sympathy, I want to heal! I want to see his face, hear his voice; I'd give anything to touch him, to smell him. But this isn't going to happen, I won't see him ever again- only when I dream. They seem so real, yet as I start to wake I notice tears rolling down my face the vision of him fades and I try so hard to fall back into the deep sleep, back to my dream where life was how...

Monologue 3: Too Clever (unisex role) Classroom, pupil is sat in the middle. Doing some drawing or day dreaming with head down. Yes sir! ( Sits up at the desk) I have been listening... What did you say? ( Looks blankly) (Impersonates the teacher) Pages 32- 38 for homework, in for next lesson. Sir, I don’t want to come across as rude or disrespectful... but you just don’t interest me, I mean ( stutters) you bore me. (Mumbles) oh shit. It’s just that I’ve done all of this already in my old school. So it’s really just a waste of time...for me. This isn’t sounding too good, is it sir? Ok, maybe not a waste of time as now I know how much I actually know. (With a sense of pride) I’m confident in this subject, sir. (Smiles) .... (Confused) my behaviour? How’s that fair? I’, top of the class though Sir, top marks.... Oh, that. I didn’t mean to hurt him, my aim was just a lot better than I expected (chuckles slightly) But Sir, he ALWAYS gets nose bleeds, you can’t blame that on me. I know I thr...

Hey guys, Ive just been having some ideas for monologues. So i've jotted a few down. Let me know what you think, first go. Maybe if you like I'll do a whole book of them. lol "o Monologue 1 (Leaning on the table over a laptop, sat in a cafe window) I really should be doing something. (Pause, looks at the clock) I’ve sat here for at least an hour, looking at the screen, flicking from Face book, to Twitter, to gum tree and auto trader and not forgetting the clock. (Looks at the clock and sighs, turns and looks out the window). Why I’m looking at auto trader is beyond me, I don’t drive. I do however have a list of things to do and I’ve done about two out of the five; not bad. (Stares into space, then at her watch) I need to leave for work in about an hour or two. I have plenty of time to still get things done. (Looks out the window and watches a couple walk by). Job hunting. That’s what I should be doing. I came to this cafe because I’d get more work done out of the h...

I'm a very 'right now' kind of person. I think of something to do, I want to do it straight away. But this time, I had to wait. The light in my bedroom is useless, it doesn't produce make light and I end up with badly waxed legs and full on stage make-up. The solution...changes it. Simples! I've never changed a light fitting myself, so I thought when my brother next visits; I’ll get him to do it. I bought the new light and now just had to wait. I was in for a six week wait as he'd had to go to Canada to slide down a few tracks. (Bob sleighing). Six weeks is FOREVER! I want it done NOW! I heard my house mate say her dad was visiting, so maybe he could do it for me? Maybe not, as when he came they were out doing the tourist thing. So it came down to the old saying...'if you want something doing, your best off doing it yourself.' With my highest GCSE in wood work and manufacturing services, I can clearly do this small job. Stage one: find out what the...
