A monologue is dialogue presented by a single character. Often a monologue will express the characters inner thoughts and feelings aloud, to themselves, to another character or directly to the audience, providing insight into the character.

Active Monologues vs. Narrative Monologues

MAKE1 MINUTE UP There are generally two kinds of monologues that writers and playwrights can utilise. MONOLOGUEDESIGN An active monologue is one that has the character using it as a way to take action or achieve a goal — whether it’s to change someone’s mind, convince them of something/to do something, or to communicate a specific point of view that the character has. A narrative monologue usually entails a character telling a story, often in past tense. These monologues often use such a story as an analogy to the actual conflict and situation within the script’s events, or as a way to explain how a character came to be the way they are or will be. Monologues are like stories within the story you’re trying to tell. They should have a general beginning, middle, and end. Monologues need to be peppered with small twists, turns, and revelations or have each and every line portray the ultimate impact of what the character is trying to accomplish. When writing a monologue, think about who am I? Where am I? What do I want? How will I get it? Why do I have to have this conversation now? How will my story Meet our judge for effect or change the listener? 1 Minute Monologue • Knowing your goal or motivation helps keep a monologue on track. • Obstacles helps keep tension in a monologue.

We are forced to lay eggs! It’s like you don’t even care! (pause)

Write on!” What? You think that we were designed to make eggs for humans? That’s insane, what about vegans?! We’re biologically born to lay eggs. Well yes, I know that, but who says we must? It hurts you know!

Maybe I don’t want to lay around the barn all day, Lucy, producing and producing so that humans can have their eggs poached, fried, scrambled or boiled. I have dreams, you know.

What dreams? Well, I’ve never told anyone before but.... I want to be a tightrope walker. There, I’ve said it. Mum and dad never believed in me, but I’ve been practising secretly behind the barn. I pecked a hole into the wall and stuck a long bamboo stick into it. I balanced it on an old box, and I’ve been practising ever since.

You want to see? Well, I mean, I’ve never showed anyone before but ok....

(does an extravagant balancing act on stick before doing a little bow to finish)

I could join a circus with that act! I would be the first chicken tightrope walker in the southern hemisphere!

Hey, I know what we need to do, we need to take vengeance. (looks back behind her)

Okay, let’s see what we’ve got. How to lay eggs properly. Oh, bother I don’t want to do that. Never produce rotten eggs, urgh what good would that.... gasps( ) I could produce rotten eggs on purpose, they’d never want me after that! pause( then sighs) Lucy, nothing you or anyone else says is going to stop me. I’ll escape once they don’t want me anymore, and then when that circus comes to town, I’ll be the first one on the list. pause( ) What do you mean? of course they won’t punish me for more eggs, they would probably just let me go. Yes, Lucy, I’m convinced that it’s the perfect plan! Circus Here I Come.

That huge rock attracted other rocks until there was a big planet that had formed. That planet is Me. I am the only planet where life exists and I am your one & only I woke up in a brightly lit room with a hoard of people hovering around me, cheering that I had chance to live. When I was growing up, I had lush green fields, crystal clear water, natural food woken up at last. Then I remembered, where was my mum?

Then now not that beautiful, and I am getting sadder and sadder about it. I have less lush green fields a black screen filled my eyes again and I heard my Aunty Taylor screaming “Nurse! NURSE!” and my water is getting dirty. My water is getting dirty because people are littering everywhere It was really strange, I tell you! and it is being accumulated in the seas. My air is being polluted as well. It is because people are smoking often and also because of more carbon emission.

I am pretty sure you have guessed I am EARTH, as I have told a lot about myself and how I used to be. However, I have hopes that you all will help me and understand how important it is to keep me healthy and safe. You should now know not to keep lights or any electronic devices on when not in use. By shutting down electronic devices, you will help emit less CO2 in the air and help me regain my health. Other simple thing you should do is, when a destination is close by, you should walk, ride a bike or scooter, or run to the destination. This will help to use less vehicles and keep me cool. By doing all this, you can make me get back to my earlier health and make me a safe planet to live for you and more generations to come. MY HEALTH IS YOUR PRIORITY.

Abbotsleigh Junior School Performing Arts Project 1 MINUTE MONOLOGUE The idea of writing a nail bitting or exciting opening scene to a play is a big task. Students in the workshops quickly realised it was easier to start an opening scene when they had an idea of what type of play they wanted to write. The opening scene or moment in a play needs to hook the audience from the get-go by generating curiosity and/or teaser that leaves the audience wanting more. Open at, or as close to as possible, the inciting incident. Drop the reader directly into the scene so they’re immediately in the action.

Tips

OPENING • Start with conflict and tension – something SCENE OF A going wrong • Start with the story you’re telling, not the SCRIPT back story • Introduce the protagonist – focus on the individual, not just a type: what is different about this person? • Briefly set the scene, but be specific versus generic – what’s unique about this place? • Set the tone of the story – is it sarcastic, dark, whimsical, suspenseful? • Ask “what will the protagonist be doing when we first meet him?” Primary (absolutely necessary):

1. The inciting incident – event that creates the surface problem, setting the stage for the story-worthy problem 2. The story-worthy problem – thing the character must solve by the end of the story Meet our judge for 3. The setup – a snapshot that will help the reader understand the next scene Opening Scene of a Script

Chanel Kang 6L Turn On – A Comedy Play Judge’s comment

What a fantastic concept for a script. A fun little Chanel Kang 6L black comedy that made me laugh out loud. I hope Turn On – A Comedy Play you write more of this as I think you are on to a big winner. Lights Rise: We open on a Teenage Boy’s bedroom. We see a sock and two shoes centre stage beside the bed, lit by a single spotlight. We hear the sound of police sirens in the distance. The bedroom door kicks open and in runs a police officer.

The POLICEMAN sees the sock and shoes centre stage and stops. He lifts up the sock and smells it. The POLICEMAN faints.

A SARGENT runs on stage and sees the “dead” Policeman and pulls a bag from his pocket. He bags the sock and radios in the crime.

SARGENT: I’ve got a code 472, requesting backup, that’s right, a dead policeman and an even deader sock!

Six POLICEMEN run in to the room through the kicked in door, the first one crashes into the SARGENT, knocking the SARGENT down, and sending the bag and sock flying, the other POLICE all crash into each other like dominos, and fall to the ground.

A SINGLE GREEN SPOTLIGHT shines on the sock in the bag.

In the pile of POLICEMEN, we see the SARGENT’s arm rise in the air holding his police radio, and then flops dead to the ground.

A TEENAGE BOY walks into his room and sees the pile of police and the green illuminating sock.

TEENAGE BOY: Jeepers! What is this mess? I just cleaned my room. My mother is going to kill me! How am I going to hide this crime? I can’t go to gaol for killing six police officers and one Sargent! I’m way too young. They will send me to Juvenile and they’ll beat me up, and I’ll have to eat watery mashed potato … but at least I’ll get six abbs (tapping his stomach).

The boy pulls the bedsheet off his bed, and covers the police, just as his mother walks into the bedroom.

MOTHER: I thought I told you to clean up this room!

The mother stalks over to the boy, grabs him by the ear, and twists it.

TEENAGE BOY: Yow! Jeez Mum!

MOTHER: Now clean your room … Entries

LIGHTS FADE SCENE 2 AT THE FAMILY MANSION… 5 Days Earlier

Abbotsleigh Junior School Performing Arts Project OPENING SCENE OF A SCRIPT Students top six tips for creating a successful poster design.

Lines: lines can emote action. Straight lines mean strength. Swirly lines mean peaceful. Lines can give a sense of movement or kinetic energy. Lines can be used to segregate content and make it clearer. Look at how information is positioned. Shape: How does the object sit on the page. Using a positive shape on a muted background makes the image pop out. Ask how does the image sit on the page. Shape can help create space. Look at the size of shape. POSTER Colour: Colour can take you on an emotional journey. Be aware of that. Use it sparingly. Too DESIGN much colour can detract. Subtle uses of colour can work equally in your favour. Texture: Can be felt or seen. Like a background which is crumpled up paper. Or an image that uses velvet draping. Space: Don’t overcrowd. Make sure it stands out from others. Always consider that it may be right next to another competitor’s poster. Don’t forget the name of the theatre, how to purchase tickets and the dates of the production, oh—and the title of the play!

Melanie Wong 6G Alice in Wonderland Judge’s comment

I really enjoyed Melanie’s drawing which Melanie Wong 6G invoked a sense of story, especially with Alice in Wonderland the such a wonderful use of colour. The poster depicts the whimsical and mysterious elements of the play so well. Very cleverly thought out to include as many of the story elements in such a limited space without being overly busy. The important information of communicating with the potential audience about the “when” and “where” the play will be performed was not lost in the overall image. I would also like to suggest a special mention to Ryka Dave and Sophie Cheung. Ryka and Sophie created such a lovely, bright, eye catching poster. Very striking in the delivery of creating the feel for the play. Especially clear in communicating with the potential audience all the important information of When, Where, Ticket price and the Director included. Well Done Ryka. Entries

This one was chosen not only because Saskia McDonald 3L of the young age of Saskia, but also her The Queen of Hearts level of detail and notes (including fabric choices) and the skill in her drawing. I love that Saskia was able to take such a famous character that we have seen in several iconic costumes, and to find a new look for her that feels modern, and yet very accurate to the character. It also significantly changes the colours of the usual outfits that we associate with the Queen Of Hearts. I also really loved the costume mannequin from 1984, Helen Xu’s Dryad Costume, the other fabulous Queen of Hearts outfit by Melanie Wong, Ava Jamison’s full range of costumes and fabrics for Cinderella, and a special mention to Melanie Wong’s really fantastic re-imagining of The Mad Hatter.

Abbotsleigh Junior School Performing Arts Project COSTUME DESIGN Set design is an important part of almost any theatre production, as almost every show will utilize some sort of set, however minimal. Sets can be abstract, highly realistic, or anything in between, and they are a chance for a designer to showcase interesting concepts, new techniques, and unusual materials. The primary function of a set, of course, is to provide the audience with some context for the play, but it can also be a chance to create something stunning to draw in the audience. The most important thing to remember as a set designer is to be innovative and original; inspiration can come from almost anything or any place, and you should never stop thinking about creative ways to help tell a story. The look of the STAGE stage as a whole is largely your responsibility, and it can be as interesting as your imagination and DESIGN ingenuity can make it. Examples: Meet our judge for Stage Design
