Few plays today have good parts for sixteen to eighteen year olds and yet most examiners and auditioners expect candidates to present characters within their own age groups and capabilities. In "Audition Speeches for Younger actors 16+" Jean Marlow has selected a wide variety of speeches for the sixteen to eighteen year-old age group. Extracts are taken from a range of plays including Sheridan's "The Rivals," Tom Stoppard's "Arcadia," Shelagh Stephenson's "Ancient" "Lights," and Martin McDonagh's "The Cripple of Inishmaan," In addition there is some excellent advice from directors, casting directors, actors and teachers, including: Royal National Theatre director, Roland Rees; singing teacher Tona de Brett, whose pupils have included Martine McCutcheon, Dido and Johnny Rotten; Valerie King, examiner for the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art (LAMDA), and Tim Reynolds, Principal of The Academy Drama School. |
