Do you know a talented young Actor?

Monologue Competition Submissions are now open!

We invite high school students in years 9-12 to submit a creative and entertaining delivery of a monologue of their choice. Enter to win a professional showreel recording and season tickets to your state theatre company's 2025 season! 

What can I submit?

You have total creative freedom to deliver this monologue in whatever way you see fit – comedy, drama, musical - go all out! You can sing it, perform it as a comedy, relate it to current societal issues, or deliver it in the context of how/when it was written.

Think about costumes, sets, props, and locations to add a bit of flair to your performance. 

You can enter 2 self-tapes and are welcome to try out a few styles and monologues. You can even record this on your phone and try to get the best quality possible, so our judges can hear and see you clearly.
