Short Scenes and Monologues for Middle School Actors — Eleven- to fourteen-year-olds bring unrivaled energy to the work of making theatre. They demand dramatic material that speaks directly to them-that captures their every day but gigantically important struggles with school, parents, and friends; that explores their painful wrestlings with the hard knocks and hard choices of adolescence; and that ignites their desire to imaginatively explore other places and times. This superb book offers monologues with clear emotional turning points and transitions that allow an actor to explore a wide range of emotion.

Captured is the effervescence, awkwardness, complexity, and joy of being a middle schooler.
