Overview

Not an auditioning class! This online course treats monologues as performance pieces in their own right. Bringing out the best solo acting you’re capable of will of course have benefits for auditioning, but it also strengthens your acting muscles for all performance scenarios. This is an opportunity to level up your game across all types of characters and styles under the guidance of a true expert, with no need to meet with a scene partner (or to leave the house).
