GLASSES – A MONOLOGUE FOR A CHILD ACTOR
In this short comedic monologue for a child actor, eight year old Janette has heard all of the fearsome stories about the…opto…optholo…the fearsome eye doctor! She will do anything to avoid the scary tools the eye doctor has in his office. Janette doesn’t want to give up her eyes forever! Even though her friend’s glasses DO look nice, all she has to do to see everything is squint anyway and that’s not so bad. When Janette finally gets into the room, things turn out to be quite different to how she imagined it would be…
A great piece for any young performer to get their…eyes…on.
