I am wishing that by some magic or “fol-derol and fiddledy dee” that I could go to the ball tonight.

“As you know, l’m quite keen on comic books.” from the film “Kill Bill: Vol. 2.” Bill’s Superman Speech. Ideal for Adult Males ranging from 36-50. 1-2 Mins.

Written By: Quentin Tarantino

BILL:

“As you know, l’m quite keen on comic books. Especially the ones about superheroes. I find the whole mythology surrounding superheroes fascinating. Take my favorite superhero, Superman. Not a great comic book, not particularly well-drawn, but the mythology. The mythology is not only great, it’s unique…Now, a staple of the superhero mythology is, there’s the superhero and there’s the alter ego. Batman is actually Bruce Wayne, Spider-Man is actually Peter Parker. When that character wakes up in the morning, he’s Peter Parker. He has to put on a costume to become Spider-Man. And it is in that characteristic Superman stands alone. Superman didn’t become Superman. Superman was born Superman.

When Superman wakes up in the morning, he’s Superman. His alter ego is Clark Kent. His outfit with the big red “S”, that’s the blanket he was wrapped in as a baby when the Kents found him. Those are his clothes. What Kent wears – the glasses, the business suit – that’s the costume. That’s the costume Superman wears to blend in with us. Clark Kent is how Superman views us. And what are the characteristics of Clark Kent? He’s weak, he’s unsure of himself, he’s a coward. Clark Kent is Superman’s critique on the whole human race. Sorta like Beatrix Kiddo and Mrs. Tommy Plympton…You would’ve worn the costume of Arlene Plympton. But you were born Beatrix Kiddo. And every morning when you woke up, you’d still be Beatrix Kiddo…I’m calling you a killer. A natural born killer. You always have been, and you always will be. Moving to El Paso, working in a used record store, goin’ to the movies with Tommy, clipping coupons. That’s you, trying to disguise yourself as a worker bee. That’s you tryin’ to blend in with the hive. But you’re not a worker bee. You’re a renegade killer bee. And no matter how much beer you drank or barbecue you ate or how fat your ass got, nothing in the world would ever change that…”

BYE BYE BIRDIE – Mr. MacAfee’s democracy is over. Dramatic Monologue for Teen Male. 1 Min.

MR. MACAFEE: I have tried to run this house on a democratic basis. I have extended the privilege of self-determination to both the woman I married, and the children I have sired… the vote has been denied no one for reason of age, sex, or political affiliations. There has been no taxation without representation, and open covenants have been openly arrived at! Last night I gave up my room to a guest who repeatedly referred to me as ‘Fats,’…. Telephone calls were made on my phone to New York, Chicago, Fairbanks Alaska and Hong Kong! Outside my window three harpies shrieked We Love You Conrad four thousand seven hundred and twenty three times… and now, I’ve lost two fried eggs… Gentleman, the democracy is over!

MARY POPPINS JR. – Mary Poppins shows up at the Banks’ door. Comedic Monologue for Kid/Teen Female. 1 Min. 

MARY POPPINS: Mary Poppins: Good morning. I’ve come in answer to the advertisement. George and Winefred Banks live here, do they not? And you are looking for a nanny? Very well, then. Now let’s see. “Play games all sorts”. Which I most certainly can. “Take us on outings give us treats, “rosy cheeks and fairly pretty”. There’s no objection on that score, I hope. (waits for a response) I’m glad to hear it. You’d like to see my references? Well, I make it a point never to bring references. A very old-fashioned idea to my mind. The best people never require them, now. The best people also give every second Wednesday off from six ‘til late and that is what I will take. I believe a trial period might be wise. I’ll give you one week. I should know by then! I’ll see the children now.

“Tink, where are you” from the play “Peter Pan.” Peter watches Wendy’s mom enter her room. Dramatic Monologue for Teen Male. 2 Min.

Written by: J.M. Barrie

PETER PAN: Tink, where are you? Quick, close the window. [It closes.] Bar it. [The bar slams down.] Now when Wendy comes she will think her mother has barred her out, and she will have to come back to me! [TINKER BELL sulks.] Now, Tink, you and I must go out by the door. [Doors, however, are confusing things to those who are used to windows, and he is puzzled when he finds this one does not open on the firmament. He tries the other, and sees the piano player.]

It is Wendy’s mother! [TINK pops on to his shoulder and they peep together.] She is a pretty lady, but not so pretty as my mother. [This is a pure guess.] She is making the box say ‘Come home, Wendy.’ You will never see Wendy again, lady, for the window is barred! [He flutters about the room joyously like a bird, but has to return to that door.] She has laid her head down on the box. There are two wet things sitting on her eyes. As soon as they go away another two come and sit on her eyes. [She is heard moaning ‘Wendy, Wendy, Wendy.’] She wants me to unbar the window. I won’t! She is awfully fond of Wendy. I am fond of her too. We can’t both have her, lady! [A funny feeling comes over him.] Come on, Tink; we don’t want any silly mothers.
