Teach your students to

Dear Teachers,

I’m excited to announce the availability of THE MONOLOGUE AUDITION TEACHER’S MANUAL as part of an educational package that includes my book The Monologue Audition: A Practical Guide for Actors (foreword by David Mamet), and DVD, The Monologue Audition Video.

The 270 page manual includes:

• A 30-page guide for choosing audition material. Make your students experts at choosing the best material for each audition, avoiding overdone, inappropriate or ineffective monologues, and understanding exactly what auditors of different kinds of auditions look for.

• A detailed MONOLOGUES I curriculum and lesson plan. This is the curriculum I teach in my private workshops in New York City, and in the Atlantic Acting School’s New York University and conservatory programs.

The MONOLOGUES I curriculum shows you how to teach acting students of all levels my step-by-step approach: How to Direct, Act, and Audition with monologues. The audition technique lessons teach actors how to handle the non-acting parts of their auditions with graciousness, confidence and ease, and are applicable to all kinds of auditions, job interviews, speeches, and presentations.

• References to the book, and to the DVD for specific visual examples of each part of the technique.

• 16 fun and specific classroom exercises in addition to those found on the DVD and in the book.

• 15 additional chapters for you to use to custom design a MONOLOGUES II curriculum to best meet your students’ needs. Chapters include: Advanced monologue and audition skills • Using monologues to expand range and address acting problems • How to use monologue technique for Songs, Public Speaking, Presentations, Job interviews, School & Community projects, and more. (See Table of Contents.)
