Just got offered a chance to do a screen test with some guys that work in the media industry (cameramen, directors, etc). What they want me to do is perform a monologue which I can perform strongly. This is great news, but now I've gotta find one. Can anyone recommend a good monologue for a teenager? I prefer semi-serious stuff, not classical. Preferably modern. ^_^

It might be done to death (in America at least), but maybe Johnny's monologue in the hospital in The Outsiders -- the "Stay gold, Ponyboy" one: http://www.whysanity.../outsiders.html

They came with white hands and left with red hands.

Uff, questions like this send me browsing the web. Beh.

Opening monologue from Kick-Ass?

Or you could read a diary entry from Taxi driver - De Niro was really young then, and it being a diary means a monologue so you can add your own flavor. Whether or not it is smart to monologue a) a Scorcese Movie, ^_^

Taxi Driver, c) De Niro, is up to you

.

Risky Business' opening monologue is told by a very young Tom Cruise who's off to college, but it is... slightly more sexual than you may be comfortable with in front of people you don't know.

If you have guts, go Get Shorty on them, since they're tv people

Or:

The details of my life are quite inconsequential.... Very well, where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen year-old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes, he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring, we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent, I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds - pretty standard, really. At the age of twelve, I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen, a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum... it's breathtaking - I suggest you try it.

Ah, the goodness that is Mike Myers...

Matthew McConaghey's line from Dazed & Confused about the high school girls: " I keep getting older & they stay the same" or something like that. Very classy

Or you could try something from the Basketball Diaries, there's a young guy with the world on tap

HiddenOne. You son of a bitch. You slimy, skulking, low-posting scumbag. You knew it would come to this. Roundabout, maybe. Tortuous, certainly. But here we are, you and me again. I started the train on you so many many hours ago, and now I'm going to finish it. Die HO. Die. This is for last time, and this is for this game too. This is for all the people who died to your backstabbing, treacherous, "I sure don't know what's going on around here" filthy lying, deceitful ways. You son of a bitch. Whatever happens, this is justice. For me, this is justice. Vote HiddenOne Finally, I am at peace.

I was gonna suggest Trainspotting as well. If not then maybe either one of Matt Damon's monologues in Good Will Hunting or something from Emile Hirsch in Into The Wild, but that may be too serious.

There's some very good ones by Jake Gyllenhal in Donnie Darko as well. My personal favourite is his Smurfette rant but that might be not be all that appropriate...

Quote

Smurfette doesn't fuck...First of all, Papa Smurf didn't create Smurfette. Gargamel did. She was sent in as Gargamel's evil spy with the intention of destroying the Smurf village. But the overwhelming goodness of the Smurf way of life transformed her. And as for the whole gang-bang scenario, it just couldn't happen. Smurfs are asexual. They don't even have reproductive organs under those little white pants. It's just so illogical, you know, about being a Smurf. You know, what's the point of living if you don't have a dick?

You know the best part about that rant? The guy who created the Smurfs allowed it because:
a) it is true, and

he thought it was hilarious

I don't have anything new to add, there has been plenty of good suggestions already ^_^

I've always thought a recitation of Roy Harper's Bad Speech (beginning of Hope) would make for a fantastic audition monolouge. Play it proper mad, like; in one moment a pensive academic, the next a vengeful tyrant.

...but then again, I'm a bit weird.
