"For auditions, class, or practice, this series of books delivers exactly what it promises: a whole lot of engaging one-minute monologues for teen characters." KLIATTThis latest edition in Smith and Kraus's best-selling Ultimate Audition Series for Teens captures the exciting, unique, and active voice of M. Ramirez.A casting director's number one gripe is usually that young actors don't choose age-appropriate material. Teens need to play teenagers.Ramirez's characters talk like teenagers do: girls and boys aged 13-19. These original monologues will wake up judges, teachers, and casting directors. They're active. They pop like nobody's business. They're funny and poignant. But, best of all, these are stories only teens could tell, stories that allow their ability to really shine through.Some scenarios included are:? caught throwing a party? telling ghost stories? newcomer in town? in love with the video store guy? home after curfew? first earthquake experience? great movie idea? first parental betrayal? too old for the treehouse? approached by a homeless person? dreamer? first time shavingM. RAMIREZ is a playwright from Miami, Florida. He holds a degree in Dramatic Writing from NYU's Tisch School of the Arts, and he is currently working on another series of monologue books for Smith and Kraus. He's also working on a play about a giant.

In the United States, there are 300,000 actors; 100,000 hold union cards. There are 184 college theater programs and 108 performing-arts high schools. There are 578 acting schools and coaches in New York City and Los Angeles alone. The Complete Professional Audition is the one book all of those actors need-because before actors can act, they have to pass the audition! Here's practical, hand-holding advice for choosing material, rehearsing, warming up, staying calm, standing out in a crowd, understanding casting, avoiding pitfalls, following up, getting the right headshot and resume, and accepting an offer. There's even a section on handling rejection-not that The Complete Professional Audition user is ever going to need that, of course. Ultra-useful appendices of recommended songs and monologues (yes!) make this the complete guide for everyone with an audition coming up. • Designed for both play and musical auditions • There are 300,000 actors and acting students in the US-and all of them want an edge at the audition • Through his workshops and seminars, author Darren Cohen knows exactly what actors need to pass an audition and get that part • Practical, down-to-earth ideas that work From the Trade Paperback edition.
