Hi, as a final piece for my speaking and listening I need to perform a monologue as one of the characters out of Romeo and Juliet. The script has to be written by me, and may be in modern language or Shakespearean language. It can be based on an event which doesn't necessarily have to have taken place, or simply a piece expressing feelings. I don't really have anything to go on apart from the fact I would like a female role. If I do badly in this it will seriously decrease my mark for speaking and listening, also its kind of urgent. Please help, thanks.
I need help writing a monologue as a character from Romeo and Juliet.
This is interesting! What a great assignment! Well, just off the top of my head, you could tell the story of Juliet's "nurse-maid" (I forget her name) and describe what it is like to be in the shadows of such power, greed, lust, corruption, etc. Or, you could tell the story of Juliet as a child including all of your girlish, innocent, heroic hopes and dreams. This, since we already know her fate would be quite compelling, I'd say. Or you could be a mystery girl who is in love with Romeo and very jealous of his adoration for Juliet. The possibilities are endless!! If you'd like, you could send me what you come up with and I'd be happy to check it out/help.
Good luck and HAVE FUN!!
