Monologues can be used to see a performer's acting ability, imagination, and understanding of a project's overarching narrative.

But what is a monologue? A monologues is a long speech performed by one character in a screen or stage production.
 They can help you further your skills, confidence and performance.

They are often used for auditions and self tapes, therefore it is important to ensure you are confident and calm when performing. 

Here are some essential tips to help you master your monologue!

  • Read through the entire monologue - don't rush, take your time getting to know the script.
  • Look up all the words you may not be familiar with - a better understanding of the vocabulary will help your delivery. 
  • Try to pick a unique monologue - overdone and famous monologues can be risky with so many other people performing it.
  • Don't worry about mistakes, just keep going and be confident. 
  • Show your personality - it is important to be yourself and perform naturally. 

Memorising a monologue is also essential for any kind of audition, although mistakes can be looked past - it is important to always be as prepared as possible.

Here are some more top tips for memorising your monologues!

  • Breaking your monologue up into beginning, middle and end may help in remembering it until you’re ready to piece it all together. 
  • Visualise it ! You can watch the performance of it to help you memorise it via visuals but always remember to not copy the performance completely as this can be risky with you being compared to the original.
  • Connect with it - if you can identify with the intentions, you will feel the emotions, and you can relate to the conflict.

Using all these you will - in no time - become a monologue master!
