The Monologue Audition
by Karen Kohlbaas
Foreword by David Mamet
An intensely practical “how to”
book for aspiring actors faced with an audition.
Written by an experienced teacher and
illustrated by line drawings and photographs, this book takes the actor
step-by-step through the crucial process of choosing and performing
an audition piece. All the elements of preparing for an audition are
here: choosing the right monologue, analyzing the text, staging, voice,
timing, gesture, movement and self-presentation.
“The audition process is an abomination.
It is, generally, a tool for unsure and
unimaginative casting agents and directors. But, turn it on its head,
and we have as Karen Kohlhaas suggests, an opportunity to investigate
and improve one’s understanding of script analysis, staging, and self-promotion.
What a good idea.”
—David Mamet, from his Foreword
