Free monologues for auditions
blablabla is a rehearsal app for actors, and these monologues are free to read, download, and rehearse. Each one is original, contemporary, and written to be spoken: a clear person to talk to, something to get, and a turn in the middle. Pick one for an audition, a class, or a selftape. Reading and downloading need no signup.
