Writing a Monologue
Students will look at the ingredients of a monologue through both comedic and dramatic examples.

Students will understand how a monologue is crafted, and what kind of details they need to include.
The end goal is for students to be able to write their own monologue with confidence and style.
Examples, handouts, and links are provided.
