COMPETITION MONOLOGUES Please complete Monologue Analyses TROY PLAY: Puzzle Pieces by Krista Boehnert GENRE: Drama DESCRIPTION Troy talks about his parents' divorce ACTING HINTS Decide on Troy's emotional state for the monologue. Is he bitter? Is he surprised this is happening to him? Is he angry? Is he sad? Is he distant? Has he been repressing his feelings about the divorce until this moment? Is there a specific place in the piece where his emotions boil over unexpectedly? Twenty years. Twenty years they've been together and now they're calling it quits. Au revoir. Pulling the plug. So long .And for me, it's the most bizarre thing because I don't ever remember my parents arguing with each other. In fact, they were always pretty quiet. They didn't really talk to each other at all. Not until recently that is. Now they're talking a lot, about everything. They argue about whether at the family Christmas party in '89 Uncle Roy was really drunk or just pretending to be. They argue about where their first official date was and what the other was wearing. They argue about who will get the house, the kids, the car. They argue about whose fault it is that the marriage is over, and who knew it was going to end first. COMPETITION MONOLOGUES TROY And Mom blames Dad for having a girlfriend. And Dad blames Mom for never letting him know she loved him. My sister and my mom both blame me just for being a guy and tell me I'm just like my father. And I blame my parents for acting so juvenile and using their kids os pawns in their game to "equally split the shared assets." I look around at school and for the longest time! was the only kid whose parents hadn't divorced. And now, I look at all the couples in the street and think, "How long will it last?" Two years? Ten Twenty? Can you ever be sure when you fall in love it will be forever? Will you wake up one morning after twenty years and decide you want someone else? My parents have moved from big complaints to little ones. He slurps his soup. Always has, always will. It is so embarrassing. Her makeup takes up all the counter space in the bathroom. A guy can't even find a spot for his toothbrush. And somewhere, in all the fighting, they forgot that at one time they did love each other. Thought it would last forever. Had two kids to show their love for each other. COMPETITION MONOLOGUES TROY And now, the house is full of things marked his or hers, a couple of devastated kids, and two wedding bands sitting abandoned on their night table. Twenty years reduced to that.
