Questions about Ordering Scripts


Q.
I am in acting school and I really want to use this monologue for my drama class, but I need to get a copy of the whole play to research my character. Can you help me out? Thanks.

A.

Too Direct is what I call a "stunt monologue." That is, a 2-minute scene specifically designed to be performed at an audition. As such, the entire play is 2-minutes long, and everything you need to know to be able to perform the piece is - or should be - contained within the short script.

Unfortunately, this makes the play unusuable for most acting classes, because your instructor may require you to read the 'whole' play for the purpose of practicing text analysis.
