The New Deal Creative Arts Center’s
MARCH MINUTE MONOLOGUE CHALLENGE

Interested writers must submit a one minute original monologue by Friday, March 5, 2021. Writers will be given a series of prompts and you will choose one and use that to write your piece. Prompts will give you a gender specification, an age range, and misc. words/phrases that should inspire you to write your one minute monologue.

Actors will then be cast to perform your monologue and self-tape. A compilation of all of the performances will premiere on New Deal’s YouTube channel on Friday, March 26, 2021. 

If you are interested in participating, please email Louisa@newdealarts.org for the writing prompts and to claim your spot in our challenge!
