-----------------

(comments) I really like it.. my audition is in two days and I decided to go with this one because I can actually relate to the character. I'll write again and let you know how my audition went. Thanks for writing this!

-----------------

I've read both the play and the monologue, and I really

enjoyed it. I was able to identify with the male role in

it quite easily, and have used the monologue in a class,

in which the teacher's both loved it.

--------------------

I thought that the monologue was very good. I think it accurately describes a plain guy's thoughts, hopes, dreams, desires , and reactions to a woman of his dreams who has just found out that she's banging the Sandman. Unfortunately, it was too short for my class, so I can't use it, but I thought it was very good.

***(editor's note) "banging the sandman"? Can someone explain that to me, please?

(Q6_other) A thing called "Actor/Audience" that our university theatre company puts on every year.

---------------------

Really good. I liked the use of detail. Like the warm coat and boots. You made her seem real. I really want to use it for the piece that I have to do. Speaking both as an actor and a writer, I was really impresed. Do more.

Very, very true!!! Spoken from the heart. A nice and

realistic portrayal of how a man would tell a women he's loved for many years

would tell her how he feels.

Thanks

I liked it quite a bit, which I'm sure you've guessed by now.

The amazing thing to me is its origionality. I've been in

thatre since I was six years old and never havce I

encountered a play that allowed the guy to be emotionlly

reveiling without making the girl into some kind of hag.

Add to that a truthful plot, hilarious antics, and defined

characters and you have a great play. Which you do. My

only problem with the play was the ending. It plays on

human emotions and is honest which makes it hard. I agree

with the ending, but as an audience member it hurts too

much. You obviously have a lot of talent and as a writer

myuself, I'm a little jealous, but hey, that's the way it

goes. . .

This play is fab! It is extremely funny for me because the dialogue is very natural and true to life. The characters are realistic and easily imagined. The ending, though disappointing, is strong. But I feel that the character of "He" would not have taken that action. But yeah, that is just my opinion.

I love your writing style and would love to read more of your work

Very good. Just the monologue without the afterword, or true story are soooo sad and "disturbing" And really very good. Great competition piece. It is also very ironic, if you know the whole storry... but just as effective. Thanks.

(comments) I liked it- it leaves a lot of room for interpretation for the actress (as a monologue, I haven't read the play) I like the disturbed monologue for the women better, but they're very different. The disturbed monologue is enthralling.

I really love this monologue. I used it a few months

my friends. (Nobody thought I could be serious) Now

I'd like to use it for a forensics competition. Is

that okay?
