Summary
A Series of Monologues for Young Women Designed for a Full Evening's Production.

This award winning writer offers nine honest and up front monologues for teen actresses. Each deals with loneliness and searching. Some are funny, some serious, all are brimming with compassion, rich language and theatricality. Nine unique monologues, portraying characters such as a teenage girl who considers herself nothing but trash, and becomes the contents of a garbage bag to prove it; a beauty queen contest winner coping with pressures from Mom, Dad, and admirers; a basketball player ignored by her mother; a drug addict at a detox center; a young woman reflecting on boyfriends - some good, some animals; a daughter of a too often divorced set of parents; and more. In her introduction, Ms. Levy states, "Each character stands alone, because that is what she is. Alone. Her life is what she had made it. It belongs to her. Do nothing to diminish her moment." We offer you these stunning "moments," strong statements of and by today's young women.
