Here you will find a rich and varied selection of monologues for men, most of which are from plays which were produced and/or published in the 2017-2018 theatrical season. Many are for younger performers (teens through 30s) but there are some excellent pieces for older men as well. The age of the character is indicated in each monologue, but you will find that many may be done by actors of different ages. Some are comic, some dramatic. Some are rather short, some rather long. All represent the best in contemporary playwriting.
