MONOLOGUE: IN PERSON
To apply for this in-person class, proof of vaccination is required. Make sure to upload your card before submitting your application.
Please review our Health & Safety page for more information on uploading your Vaccination Card and our current guidelines.
Monologue auditions are a standard part of the business, but we consistently hear that actors aren’t thrilled about the monologues they have, or aren't confident about how they perform them.
Whether you’re planning to audition for graduate school, are getting ready for season generals, or haven’t updated your audition package since you graduated, this class is for you.
The instructor will choose and help you prepare three monologues--two assigned contrasting contemporary pieces and a third type of your choice. You may choose either heightened text or an additional contemporary piece as your third monologue. Using their remarkable ability to discover pieces especially suited to each actor, they will guide you through developing monologues that are active, interesting, and that showcase your unique talent. By the end of class, you’ll have a new arsenal of crafted and rehearsed material, ready to hit the audition room.
Required: Prior experience and training, determined by headshot and resume, and audition for the instructor.

Kurt (Naebig - Monologue Online) always gave everyone a fair shot to work on their pieces. His feedback was helpful, thoughtful, and always respectful to whomever he was working with. He answered some of the questions that I didn't know how to ask.

The Monologue class with Kurt Naebig was very helpful. Kurt has a vast amount of knowledge from his career and knows how to connect with his students. Kurt picked pieces he catered specifically to me and on the first audition I went on following the conclusion of class I booked a 9 week out of town contract!
