We want YOU!

All right, playwrights. I know you're out there. I might just start naming names...maybe. Maybe I'll just tag you on the book of face. We still need your submissions here at Monologue Mania! We will TAPE our rehearsals! We will put a voice to your story! Submit at monologuemania@gmail.com. Do it. :)

Anyhoo-I've got an audition tonight. I'm using the Cow poem again in a more edited and concise version (because that's the process my friends: find, edit, perform, tweak, edit again, and test), and I'm singing (because this audition is for a musical!). I'm not going to reveal what I'm singing quite yet, but I'll give you hints: Its a newer rock musical, its by a man with only one name (because he is as cool, if not cooler, than other one-name wonders-ie. Prince), and the musical is about his life. Can you guess the musical?

I'll tell you the answer in my audition update, but otherwise, get thee to an iTunes store and download this music (if you've guessed what it is yet). IT WILL BLOW YOUR MIND. Well, I loved it anyway.

Happy Monday!

The Results Are In!!

Alright, I want to send a hearty thank you to the 10 or so people who voted.

There was a definite winner for our poll-An Awesome New Play.

Alas, if only I knew some playwrights that could submit some awesome new works for us to play with...WAIT A MINUTE! I know many of you write (and write well) so don't be shy.

Playwrights are the most important people in theatre-without them, there would be no story. And without a story--there'd be no point to doing theatre. Who wants to stare at a blank stage with actors staring blankly back at you. Not me, no sir.

So come one, come all. CALLING ALL PLAYWRIGHTS!!
If you'd like for us to use your work in an upcoming audition, or just to workshop it, please email us a PDF document to monologuemania@gmail.com. We can give you feedback on our experiences with your work, we'll even video our rehearsal readings. Isn't that just what you're looking for? A way to hear your beautiful new work??!!?!

Happy Writing!
