In writing monologues for the stage, a story begins as words on the page. The next stage of development is to have the monologue performed by an actor in front of an audience. In this monologue showcase, class participants who have been developing monologues over six weeks will have the chance to see their writing performed by an actor for an audience––you.
Please join us for a one-hour (free) Zoom program of dramatic readings of monologues from Kelly DuMar’s Your Memoir as Monologue class for the TLA Network, featuring monologues by:

Mary Ladany*
