YOUR SCRAPBOOK!
Go find your monologues. Copy them. Paste them where you want them. Work on them, have fun!
You might want to leave a blank page after each monologue for edited versions with time cuts
And leave margins on the edge for notes from coaches, etc.
I suggest making copies of handouts your teachers give you
(Tongue twisters or vocal warm ups, or action verbs or anything you think will help YOU). Include anything that you think will be a good reference to have with you at all times.
Your Scrapbook Section Guide:
Section 1: Contemporary Monologues (plus pg. w/ section for time cuts: 3 min, 2 min, 1 min, less)
Section 2: Classic Monologues (plus pg. W/ section for time cuts: 3 min, 2 min, 1 min, less)

Congrats on your bold choice of careers and the passion to follow your heart...
Now forget the ABC's and mind your XYZ's
N: nobody but you makes the choice on how to live your life.

Keep in mind all this info, is just little bits of wisdom and advice other people have given me or
I took note of somehow-- from classes, workshops, or other actors.
Nothing is factual, it is merely observation from my perspective…You will find your own truths and helpful hints of wisdom from those in your life, and those are the things that should be in YOUR monologue scrapbook!
