WHAT IS A MONOLOGUE?
A monologue is a long speech given by a single character. The term is derived from the greek monos for "alone" and logos for "speech."
TYPES OF MONOLOGUES
There are many different types of monologue. In this "how to write a monologue" video essay, we break down four types: soliloquy, internal monologue, dramatic monologue, and musical monologue.
INTERNAL MONOLOGUE
The internal monologue, or "inner monologue," is a type of monologue in which we're given access to the thoughts and feelings a character is unable or unwilling to express. This technique is used to articulate a character's inner voice, which can give us access to their mental processes; often in real time.
DRAMATIC MONOLOGUE
The dramatic monologue is a type of monologue in which a character's solo speech is externalized to other characters and or the audience. This type of monologue writing is most commonly used in settings with large groups; think conference speeches or locker room rallies. However, it can also be used on small scales to develop intimacy between characters.
SOLILOQUY VS MONOLOGUE
A soliloquy is a type of monologue in which a character gives a speech to themself. A musical soliloquy is a popular subtype of soliloquy in which a character gives a speech to themself through the form of song.
MUSICAL MONOLOGUE
Musical monologues can take the form of a soliloquy or dramatic monologue; they are only distinguished by their use of melody.
