There has been a great change in the last 20 years to actor auditions, which now require the demonstration of enormous flexibility. The actor is often expected to show more range than ever before, and often several shorter audition speeches are requested instead of one or two longer ones.

To stay at the top of his or her game, the Shakespearean actor needs more knowledge of what makes the play tick, especially since the early plays demand a different style from the later ones. No current monologue book deals directly with the bulk of these concerns. One More unto the Speech, Dear Friends fills that gap. This three-volume set will help actors discover the extra details of humanity that the original folio texts automatically offer.
