This anthology presents the set selection of solo and duologue scenes for Learners entering LAMDA Graded Examinations in Performance: Acting from Grade 1 to Grade 5.
The 100 speeches and scenes in this collection include excerpts from published plays and adapted novels, as well as new, original material written specifically for this anthology. There are monologues for solo performance and duologue scenes for two performers, all carefully curated to offer a broad range of material written by a variety of acclaimed playwrights, from Euripides, Shakespeare and Ibsen to Caryl Churchill, Chinonyerem Odimba and Jack Thorne. Also included is a foreword by actor and LAMDA graduate Ruth Wilson.
For Learners taking LAMDA Examinations, this anthology offers a wide choice of characters and worlds to explore. There is material for younger candidates who are just entering the world of performance, as well as material for older, more experienced actors. For the general reader, this anthology is an ideal starting point for discovering the work of contemporary playwrights, as well as reconnecting with celebrated writers of the past.
Content warning: This anthology contains some mature words and references that may only be suitable for older Learners. Teachers are advised to use their judgment in selecting performance material appropriate to their Learners.
