Abridged Episode 4 'The Most Wonderful Time Of The year?'

Tiny Theatre - Monologues Live!

An ABRIDGED VERSION our most-listened episode from season one of The Monologue podcast for submission to the New Jersey web (podcast) festival. Cosy up for a collection of three (not so) festive monologues to keep you jolly entertained!

Join host Daniella Down and guest co-host Sairah Erens for this episode that showcases three original monologues from an international group of new writers and actors. From an artist who’d rather drink and be merry than be interviewed about her work, to a mum whose Christmas turkey ritual comes back to gobble her, to a son nostalgically remembering his parent’s battles over Quality Street Caramel Barrels. It wouldn't be Christmas without a family feud now, would it?

Monologues:

'Interviewing Judy' written and performed by Paris Herbert-Taylor (Los Angeles)

'Most Wonderful Time of Year?' written and performed by Jacqueline Nolan (Amsterdam)

'Caramel Barrels' written by James Johnson and performed by Hugh Mackay (United Kingdom, Amsterdam)

This episode's lesser-known quote from a famous play is from Shakespeare's 'The Merry Wives Of Windsor' Act 1, scene 1: "Come, gentlemen. I hope we can drink down all unkindness."
