Wednesday, January 29, 2014, 7pm ET / 4pm PT

Taught by award-winning casting director Paul Fouquet, this 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.

The first week, Paul will be working with everyone on their current monologues where he'll instantly tell you what is or is not working, so get ready to work! He'll also give you a list of ideas from plays that more than likely you've never heard of before. Between weeks #1 and #2, Paul will bring you into his office with a private appointment so he can edit and piece together the monologues so you can be on you feet with one by week 2. In week three, 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. Regional casting includes The Old Globe, Alabama Shakespeare, Cleveland Playhouse, Seattle Rep., Magic Theatre, Denver Center, Geva, Shakespeare Theater DC and the Dallas Theater Center. This office has so far received 14 nominations and has won 3 Artios Awards for "Outstanding Achievement in Casting", most recently in the category of "LA Theater" for Anna in the Tropics at Pasadena Playhouse.
