Our Lady of 121st Street - Monologue - Stephen Adly Guirgis
Comment+Rate+SUBSCRIBE
It's kind of embarassing to post, but I guess it could be used for a demo reel. Looking back on it now (this was 2 years ago) I feel it was a bit too fast and my voice was too low - too quiet. It builds to a climax and ends well but the pacing needed a bit more structure.
TAGS: A monologue for class. Taken from Our Lady of 121st Street. Monologue Acting Class School Theatre. Stephen Adly Guirgis.

Jailbait - Trailer
SYNOPSIS: Randy commits a victimless crime that would normally get him probation and a hefty fine, but in the "three-strikes" world of justice, he finds himself locked up for 25 years. His cellmate Jake is a congenial yet remorseless lifer who casually informs Randy that he slit his wife's throat because she slept with another man just three months after they exchanged vows. Jake recognizes Randy's fear and offers him advice on how to make it in prison. But it soon becomes clear that Jake has much more than mentoring in mind as he takes Randy under his wing. "Jailbait" sets a darkly cerebral tone, juxtaposing brutality with the unattainable ideal of intimacy in the harshest of psychological environments. For these two men so yearning to be anything but who they are and where they are, power is the goal, and it's never clear who truly holds it right up to the last unsettling moment.

THROAT by Mando Alvarado
THROAT will get you in the gut. A raw, fearless look at returning Iraq combat veterans... Mr Alvarado has a knack for the bruised, rapid fire dialogue that recalls playwrights David Mamet and Stephen Adly Guirgis. Slangy, profane, staccato in rhythm, this dialogue dances in your ears." -- Jayne Blanchard, Washington Times
