Monologue Perfection - 7 Week Monologue Class
with Paul Fouquet, CD, Elissa Myers Casting

Wednesday, January 7, 2009, 7pm ET / 4pm PT

Taught by award-winning casting director Paul Fouquet, our NEW 7-week monologue class is dedicated to finding you perfect monologues best suited for you and your type. Paul's approach will find you the best pieces to help you book jobs and land representation as well as remove any fear you may have in performing them. In the first two weeks, Paul will be working with everyone (one group the first week/another group the 2nd week) to see if what you're using works for you. He'll instantly tell you to trash it or get ready to rework. He'll also give you a list of ideas from plays that more than likely you've never heard of before. In the third week, you'll bring in ALL the materials that were suggested to you and Paul will personally edit, piece together or suggest passages from each. He'll give you pointers on how to approach each piece and together you'll then choose your first piece .In week four, you'll begin work encompassing an intensive work session in which you'll get grounded in the technique of approaching the monologue as a scene. In the following weeks, Paul will coach you to monologue perfection so that by the last class you will have numerous monologues ready to perform. Paul has been a CD for over 20 years and his credits include many Tony nominated Broadway shows, over 25 Off-Broadway shows as well as MOWs, pilots, Mini Series and previous Emmy Award-Winning bio-pics.
