A client recently asked me naively if her offers to have 3 agent meetings were because they were just being "polite". No, they were not being polite.

You just need to follow a few simple steps in order to maximize your effectiveness in the audition or class. One of the common misconceptions about monologues is that you should memorize all of the stage directions and words first, THIS IS NOT TRUE!
