Encore! More Winning Monologs for Young Actors

63 More Honest-To-Life Monologs for Teenage Boys and Girls

Beschreibung

So great were the reviews and the response to Winning Monologs for Young Actors that we had to develop this sequel! This monolog book includes 63 more monologs written expressly for teenagers to use for classroom exercises, speech contests, auditions, or simply as discussion starters. The book is divided into three sections: monologs for girls, for boys, and for girls or boys. These are all "real talk" monologs portraying both life's funny situations and its pathos, written as teens are thinking today.

Autor

Peg Kehret enjoys a dual profession: playwright and novelist. Her funny, heart-warming plays have been produced in all 50 states and Canada, while her books for young people have earned a wide readership and critical acclaim. As a freshman in high school, Peg was cast as a hillbilly granny in a one-act play. It was so much fun that she tried out for every subsequent school play. If she didn't get cast, she worked backstage. The Theatre Bug bit Peg... big time! After co-producing plays (at the community theatre level) and acting (in a touring company), it was only natural that when it came time for Peg to flex her writing muscles, she would begin to write for the theatre. Peg says that she would rather write than do almost anything else, and she has published forty-six books for middle grade students, including four drama books for kids. Among her many honors are the PEN Center Award in Children's Literature, The Golden Kite Award from the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators, the Forest Roberts Playwriting Award, the Henry Bergh Award from the ASPCA, and more than fifty state young reader awards, where students in various states voted for their favorite book.
