HAROLD THE TIGER from
Tiger in a Cage
THREE MONOLOGUES. M, 30's. 2-3 mins. A recidivist sex offender, trapped in a jail cell, rants at his psychiatrist - whom he also is in love with. In a twisted way. Lots of fun, a chance to run the gamut of emotions. |

BARBED WIRE FENCE
inspiration for Better by Candlelight. M, 20's. 2 mins. A traumatized man recalls a particularly painful accident from his childhood. This monologue was the original inspiration for the play, rather than the other way around, although a lot of it did not make it intact into the final version. |

THE
BRICKLAYER M, 50's- 60's. 2 mins. An original monologue, first produced by the Atlantis Playmakers in Lowell, MA as a selection in the 2006 Short Attention Span PlayFEST on July 20th, 2006. It was directed by Bill Spera and performed by Jim Sullivan. A bricklayer talks to his son about the the importance of making each brick square and true, the importance of the larger picture, of small parts playing roles in larger issues... as he builds an industrial chimney in a concentration camp. |

MOPPING THE STAGE M, 30's up. 20 mins. This monologue - a full twenty minutes long when performed - is actually a stand alone short play in its own right. It was developed over a year long process as part of the ensemble drama I SHOULDA EATEN MY PEAS AND CARROTS, created by Bill Hyatt and Jeni Elliot. A writer mops the stage in preparation for a play - while discussing his choices to become an instructor pilot for the U.S. Army at the start of the Iraq War, and his decision to quit to become a writer. And mop stages. |
