![]() ![]() ![]() You have to stay at the vet and they’re going to take care of you. Well, thing is, you won’t be coming home with us this time. I know, I don’t like that place either! But they give you a treat at the end and I get to pick a lollipop from the jar, so I guess it’s not that bad. We’re going to get in the car soon and drive to the vet. Dad told me not to say, but I’m pretty sure you won’t dob me in. That’s older than Gran!Īnyway, I have to tell you something. Are you comfy there? Did you know that you’re twelve years old now? That’s … eighty-four in dog years. JESSE: Come here, boy! Sit down on the blanket. Maybe in Italy? Time To Go, Rufus (by Indiana Kwong)Īge Range: 10 – 12 Years Genre: Drama Synopsis: Jesse is telling his best friend Rufus, an old golden retriever that it’s time to go to the vet. I mean, we’re friendly enough for her to tell me that she’s got a crush on Joe Soper! But she wasn’t the one for me. People get to know each other and discover that they’re different. She didn’t even try the garlic bread I’d made! “I’m just not that into food, Sam.” And in that moment … something shifted. ![]() I asked her about the flavours, about how the pasta was cooked. She said it was nice, even if I was acting strange. The next day, at school, I asked her how she liked the meal. She just chomped away silently until her bowl was empty. Nothing! Mum said “This is a beautiful meal, Sam!” But Hannah didn’t take the hint. No reaction, no smile, no eyes closed going “mmmm”. I served everybody, I watched Hannah take her first bite … and nothing. My mum was home early so she ate with us and my little sister. I even remembered to take the bay leaves out before they got bitter. I started on my greatest-ever pot of Spaghetti Bolognese: I minced the garlic, I browned the meat, bought really good tinned tomatoes from the shops-like, fancy ones from Italy. For date three, mum suggested I invite her over for dinner and cook. I’d had a crush on her (like I guess most of us have had a crush on her since forever) and I asked her if she wanted to see a movie. The first date was more like a study session at the library. What’s this got to do with Hannah? I’m getting to that. ![]() I let it simmer for hours so it reduces to this beautiful, sweet, delicious, tomato-ey sauce. The best thing I cook is my Spaghetti Bolognese, hands down. Some nights, when my mum works late, I like to cook for our family-without her even asking me-just to help out. It’s, like, one of my favourite hobbies-which I know is weird for somebody my age. You look at me, Sam Barber, and wonder how the heck a kid like him could ever mess up dating a girl as amazing as Hannah Benson…ĭo you like cooking? I love cooking. Let me guess: you’re here to find out what happened. Monologues for Boys Spaghetti Bolognese (by Alexander Lee-Rekers)Īge Range: 10 – 13 Years Genre: Drama/Comedy Synopsis: Sam tells of his first great heartbreak and his love for food. Why are they saying the monologue in the first place? Who are they talking to? Answering these simple questions will help bring any monologue to life. Make sure you push your child/student to be precise in learning monologues: remind them that every word has been put on the page for a reason, and they need to be ‘script detectives’ to work out what the writer is trying to say! Get them to think deeply about what the character wants. Keep it exciting and keep it fun! We have split this page into material for boys and girls, but remember that most monologues can be performed or adapted for any young person. The key is to find a monologue that resonates.Īlways pick something your child/student feels comfortable and confident performing. However, some of these may still suit slightly older, or more advanced performers. If you’re looking for something more advanced, we also have monologues for teenagers and monologues for adults available. These monologues are great for auditions, performances at eisteddfods or even for use in classes or private lessons. Most of these monologues are short and easy to learn, ideal for children under the age of fifteen. ![]()
