This book of original monologues is a first of its kind, a pioneer that will remain important far into the future. It is a resource book for the acting community that offers real representation on our stages. Written for mature actors high school-aged and older, these 100 monologues capture the explosion of queer identities and what it means to the person struggling to be understood, to be seen for who they are. Most monologues are between one and three minutes long, and each starts by introducing the speaker s gender identity and age ranging from 15 to 60 years old. The vast collection spans a variety of identities, thoughts, feelings, conflicts, struggles, revelations, and victories. Through the words of these poignant, insightful, gender-non-conforming characters, we can all become more compassionate, empathetic, and understanding of people who deserve an anthology compiled specifically for them so they can be honestly represented onstage.
