<p>Post the the monologues and/or song(s) you plan to do for your college audition. I'm just curious to see what kind of pieces other people use in their auditions.</p>
<p>From what I have been able to ascertain on this forum…most people feel that their monologues are pretty personal and not often will they share what they are performing. Maybe some former students who are already admitted to a program would be willing to share. Good luck with your audition :)</p>
<p>Ok, don’t mention the school then… I’m in the midst of deciding what pieces I want to use myself (I’ve been working on about 8 of them over the past year and I’m buffeting back and forth in my mind which ones are the best idea) and I sometimes wonder what sort of things teachers are used to seeing.</p>
<p>Do you know about the overdone monologue lists? That might be a good place to start.</p>
<p>Those lists aren’t very reliable because what is overdone will often change from year to year or depending on location. Once I auditioned for a local Shakespeare company and like five guys did Richard III. That doesn’t necessarily mean that you should never do it in audition anywhere… I’m talking about the specific experience of auditioning for college drama programs. It doesn’t really matter or have a huge impact on what I decide doing, I just like to gauge what kind of material other applicants like. That’s all.</p>
<p>Got it 
Hope you get some good feedback :)</p>
<p>My rule is that any monologue by Shakespeare written for a young actor is overdone. But maybe the Shakespeare company required auditioners to do Shakespeare? In that case, the auditors were expecting overdone monologues.</p>
<p>A lot of the overdone monologues don’t change as much as you would think. Directors are still hearing monologues from plays written in the 80’s, especially the two “tuna fish” monologues.</p>
