Does anyone know of a really great classical monologue?

Does anyone know a good female dramatic monologue from a classsic play?

  • I would really like to have a strong monologue that prefereably includes some crying in it, or getting really emotional. thanks guys

  • Answer:

    Strong emotion does not have to include crying. How about seething anger covered by acceptance of ones fate? Try the final scene between Antigone and Creon. From Antigone. Edit: Asking for just the monologue is not the way to go. If you are going to do a monologue well you need to have read the whole play. Only then will you understand the scope of emotion that should be conveyed in the scene.

Macbeth. But a lot of Lady Macbeth's monologues, you must really be in touch with her sexuality. If you are comfortable with that and is appropriate for what you are auditioning for, many of her monologues are fabulous.

Try Ophelia. Or try something from Cat on a Hot Tin Roof.
