My monologue choices
I've chosen Angela's monologue from "Like a virgin" by Gordon Steel as my contemporary monologue choice. When I was reading the book I started crying when I found out that Angela was about to die, I think that this is a real tragedy, that's actually happening in real life as well and it makes me so sad knowing that some kids die because of cancer at such a young age. The reason why I wanted to do Angela's monologue is because I really liked her story and I could've seen myself in her position and the way it was affecting me, helped me fit well in the role of the character.
I've chosen Rosalind's monologue from "As you like it" by William Shakespeare as my classical monologue choice because I wanted something really contrasting compared to the contemporary monologue and this role was what I needed. Rosalind is a powerful, smart women, very ironic and honest, I can relate to her character and I really liked it. In this monologue she is giving attitude to Phoebe - who is a naive character, full of herself and shallow - because she was mistreating a man who was in love with her.
