🎭 Mini-Monologue #2 🎭 

Morning actor pals! 

Firstly, HUGE thanks to the 25 amazing actors who took on Mini-Monologue #1. The performances were all incredible and I was blown away by how entirely different each one was. I can't wait to share the video compilation very soon.

Here’s Mini-Monologue #2.

This is just for fun, if you've got a bit of spare time and fancy getting creative or want something short & sweet for practice. 

Simply perform the mini-monologue however you wish, and upload it to social media (I'll re-share your posts) and/or send it to me to include in the compilation video at the end of the month. You’re welcome to use the monologue wherever and however you like. 

• The piece is likely to run roughly 25-30 seconds (longer or shorter depending on how you want to approach it).

• It's open to ANYONE. The piece is written specifically so anyone of any age or gender can perform it in any style and tone they want.

So I can start dropping a new Mini-Monologue at the start of each month, Mini-Monologue #2 will be open for just a couple of weeks, until July 31st.

• Mini-Monologue #3 will be out August 1st.

Mini-Monologue #2:

“The doctor just wouldn’t listen. I kept begging him to take another look… to check again. But he insisted that my [brother*] had been dead for hours and there was nothing anyone could do. He told me I was in denial… that he was gone. Well, if that was true, how do you explain that he’s just bitten me!?”

*Please feel free to change this to anything you like: husband,

neighbour, granny, son, hamster, mother, teacher, mailman etc.

Thanks so much in advance to anyone who’s up for the challenge.  

Have fun!

Below: a parody of Alexander Hamilton... Dedicated to AJ

How does a part-french, balded son of Susan

And a Phil J, spawned in the middle of a forgotten pond in Londoninium

By a full moon, sunk too soon, in water, grow up to be a tech king and a writer?

The impro-viser

Found a small group and a visor

He became the games deviser, the improv harmonizer, a constant story reviser

With his new allies, by ‘20 they placed him in charge of the facebook live

And everyday while he was unspawned under the waves

He was brave, waited and kept his shell up

Inside he was longing for something to be a part of

The moon egg was ready to kneel to new masters

Then a cheesecake came, and revelation reigned

Our man saw his future and all he could gain

Stuck eggshell on his temple, connected it to his brain

And he wrote his first game, a silly little refrain

Well the word got around, they said

"This kid is insane, man!"

Joined a little group and then they went to monologueslam

"Display your lunacy and don't forget from whence you came

And the world's gonna know your name. What's your name man?"

Jalexander Aeremy

My name is Jallexander Aeromy

And there's a million thing I haven't done

But just you wait, just you wait

In 2020, Covid hit, it was shit, home bidden

2 years later, see Jalexx and his friends jokes hidden

Alone, sitting in their own rooms, shots consume-d

And they got out but economy went boom

Moved out to Bill Murray, live comedy started up again

Left them with a growing pride, something new inside

A voice saying, "Jalex you gotta just be yourself"

He started throwing and confusing every member in the group

There woulda been nothing left to do for people less chaotic

He woulda been left and idiotic suggesting things like “it’s erotic”

Started learning, earning quotes and charismatic characters

Making hare sweaters, be careful, all these funny bits and more

Stabbing up every Nazi he can get his hands on

Insulting Sam and Batman, see him now as he stands with

With an alien cock, or chilling with Susan

In the discord chat they call him Apple Jam

(In the discord chat they call him Apple Jam) Just you wait

(In the discord chat they call him Apple Jam) Just you wait

In the discord chat they call him Apple Jam

In the discord (Discord)

Just you wait!

Jalexandrr Aerommy (Jalixandor Aeromi), we're waiting in the streams for you (waiting in the streams for you)

You made Kath drink your scent, you make a mean Jamie. O-Li-Verrrr

Oh, Jallixandr Aerromy (Jalexander Aeromy), when Sommerset sings for you

Will they know how bald you became?

Will they know you rewrote the games?

The world will never be same, oh

The long johns strike is on now, see if you can spot him

Another striker refusing to leave the small bar

His enemy is the milkman, Americans they help him

Discord GC: We stanned him

KBF: Me? I disguised him

Sam: Me? I kissed him

Tom: Me? I rescued him

Luke: And me? I'm the damn fool that shot him

Lukes methods were unusual

But just you wait

What's your name man?

JAlexander Aearomy!

外出自粛が始まってから、自主練として英語でモノローグやコールドリーディングの練習をしています。 

海外にはモノローグやサイズを入手できるサイトがすごくたくさんあって、それらを見つけられたのも収穫。

いくつかモノローグを投稿したりもしていた中、新たなモノローグイベントを見つけたので参加してみました。 

その名も、「ワールド・モノローグ・ゲーム」

演じる言語は英語に限らないというルールだったのですが、私は英語で演じてみました。

日本語字幕も付けてみたので、ぜひご覧ください！

= = = = = = = = = =

Since quarantine began, I've been working on practicing cold reading and monologues in my second language English!

In the course of doing so, I found a lot of great platforms and resources such as MonologueSlam, MinuteMonologue, Monologue Blogger, etc.

Now I'm participating in the World Monologue Games. 

Anybody can participate in this event, of course as an Actor but also as a Fan, Judge, Sponsor and Volunteer!

The Diary of a Hounslow Girl – (c) Talula Sheppard

Ambreen Razia with House Theatre present: The Diary of a Hounslow Girl. A British Muslim teenager faces a conflict of cultures in the return of this coming of age comedy set in the heart of Hounslow. Written by Ambreen Razia, directed by Sophie Moniram, performed by Nyla Levy. National Tour from 9th March to 2nd April, 2017.

An acerbic comedy told through the sharp, straight-talking voice of an aspirational 16 year old British Muslim girl; The Diary of a Hounslow Girl returns as emerging actress Nyla Levy takes on the lead role in Ambreen Razia’s witty debut following its 2016 national tour. This original work, which was nominated for Best Stage Production at the Asian Media Awards 2016, follows the typical life of a “Hounslow Girl” – young Muslim women who wear big hooped earrings along with their headscarves – to challenge stereotypes of young British Muslim women.

Playwright Ambreen Razia offers an astute take on negotiating the hurdles of conservative family values alongside the challenges of teenage life in West London, through her experiences from traditional Pakistani weddings to teenage romance. The Diary of a Hounslow Girl’s humorous approach seeks to upturn stereotypes and bridge generational rifts with a comic yet resonant approach to present-day dilemmas in the face of age-old tradition.

Ambreen Razia said “It’s truly a pleasure to be handing over the role to such an incredibly talented actress! The response from audiences has been fantastic and it’s great to have the opportunity to tour it to 13 new venues this Spring with House Theatre. As a writer, it’s exciting to see Nyla take on the role of Shaheeda with a fresh energy. I can’t wait to see the show with Nyla performing and finally be able to sit back and watch the magic which I’m sure is going to be an overwhelming and very exciting moment.”

Ambreen Razia is a writer and actress from South London. She was recently awarded the Asian Media Awards Best Newcomer 2016 and has performed at venues including The Old Vic, Ovalhouse and The National Theatre. Her recent credits include No Guts, No Heart, No Glory (2015), Mind The Gap (2015), After All This (2015) and BBC Three’s Murdered by my Father (2016). This is Ambreen’s debut play; originally commissioned by and performed at Ovalhouse in 2015 as part of their 33% London programme. Ambreen had previously performed The Diary of a Hounslow Girl in Black Theatre Live’s national tour in 2016 as well as a monologue at Triforce’s MonologueSlam UK in 2014. Alongside The Diary of a Hounslow Girl team she is currently developing her second play, POT, exploring the landscape of Britain’s invisible children, adrift in the care system and inadvertently impacted by gang culture. Both Ambreen and Nyla will be appearing in feature film Finding Fatimah, a British Muslim romantic comedy to be released later this year, starring Nina Wadia and Danny Ashok.

Nyla Levy is an actor, writer and theatre maker. Nyla has worked with companies such as BBC, Complicite, Lyric Hammersmith, Tamasha, Tara Arts and Cardboards Citizens. Venues she has performed at include Battersea Arts Centre, Theatre 503, The Lowry, Hackney Empire, Nottingham Playhouse, The Finborough, The Bush and New Diorama Theatre. Nyla wrote her first play Normal with a bit of OOMPH! a verbatim/documentary style piece exploring female body image, which debuted as a Rehearsed Reading at RichMix in Feb 2016. Recently, Nyla was selected by the Lyric Hammersmith to join their programme for young writers – Development Lab – which she continues to work with on her next project Does My Bomb Look Big In This? Nyla is also co-Artistic Director of Two’s Company, who have been announced as one of the New Diorama Theatre’s Emerging Companies 2016/17.
