Just Me: 100 Monologues for Teens

There may be 100 monologues, but most will be completely unusable or uninteresting to your students, if you are a drama teacher like me. Especially for the price.

Just started monologues with my 7th grade theater 1 class...lots of good, age appropriate monologues....and the students are pretty happy also!

Finally, someone has put together a (witty) collection of the daily ruminations that run through our subconscious. Johnson's whimsical humor and insightful nature sometimes leaves you with a childish grin or raised eyebrow, but always with a warmer heart.

In Just Me, 100 Monologues for Teens, Phyllis Johnson brings you the words and thoughts of the every man and every woman: The author, artist, baker, candle maker. They all find a home here. To the young they preach experience, a preparation for the life ahead. To the book lover, they tell a story. One the real world can relate to...@Vincent Spada- author, screenwriter

Just Me, 100 Monologues for Teens is one of the most inspiring books I've read in years. At the very age when teens are asking themselves the questions; "Who am I?" and "What am I going to be?", Phyllis Johnson offers these monologues to help them find the answers. She gives reassurance to the young person who might be second guessing their calling as an artist or a teacher and fair warning to the troubled teen headed down the wrong path. There is power in the spoken word and each of these monologues demand to be read aloud as declarations of self awareness. Where was this book 40 years ago when I was thirteen?
