"If you’re picking a monologue from this book, let me start by saying this: you’re already on your way. You’re already an actor. You have already committed.  You bought this book. And that’s all you have to keep doing: commit. Commit with everything you have, commit with all your heart and soul, and you’ll get where you want to go." Tom Hiddleston, actor
"A greatly compiled list of diverse monologues suitable for both aspiring actors, like myself, and more established actors, who may be looking to sharpen their tools. I genuinely believe it will be a challenge for anyone that picks up this book to not find something for them... a no brainer".

Reviews
‘These monologues depict the weird, the delusional, the hopeful, hopeless, the arrogant and the narcissist, in interesting and accessible monologues. For the canon it is great to have a book of witty words for women and girls from the Wix perspective.’ Zeena Rasheed, Drama Magazine
'I enjoyed Katy Wix’s first book of monologues and now she’s given us 40 more. She is often very funny – even on the page – and in the hands of a skilled performer some of these new speeches would be pure gold. She’s very good at the apparently random deadpan opening: “I was in a band”, “I never feel the cold”, “I've got to pee”. The skill, as ever, is to be deadly, earnestly serious about something laughably, perhaps pitiably, trivial. There’s plenty here for anyone wanting a fresh comic audition speech or for anyone brave enough to be assembling one-woman show material.'  The Stage
 ‘Here you have a book filled with brilliant characters and much funny. Each piece is bubbling with the quirky genius that makes Miss Wix one of the funniest performers/writers around’ Jennifer Saunders (in her introduction to volume 1 Learn More
