Monologues for Men aims to provide BAME (Black, Asian and minority
ethnic) actors and practitioners with new and exciting audition and
showcase material from plays written by contemporary playwrights. The
monologue anthology will celebrate the work of British and international
contemporary playwrights who have written powerful and diverse roles
for BAME actors within the last forty years. A growing number of BAME
actors are attending drama schools and progressing to professional life
in the theatre and on screen, yet finding quality monologues from a wide
range of authors has proved to be a difficult task. Audition Speeches

categorised by theme - and offering a suggested playing age for each -
this collection is the go-to resource for monologues for aspiring and
professional BAME actors.
