Hey Everyone! So recently I performed in Hartwick College's Monologue Festival for Alumni Weekend. Here is my "Death of a Leaf" Monologue. The monologue had the audience in stitches but I had quite the surprise in store for me after the monologue :)
My inspiration for the monologue actually spawned from another monologue that I did back in January of 2011. In 2011 I took a solo performance class that taught me a variety of writing techniques for monologues and one-person shows. I decided to write a monologue about a snowflake that gets blown into the theater when the doors open and tells the audience why the life of the snowflake is tougher than they think. The monologue was called "Lament of a Snowflake."
For my "Death of a Leaf" monologue I delve into how we see Autumn as a beautiful season but for the leaves it can be a terrifying experience.
