"Was a lot of fun - I was startled by the consistent quality and interest of the monologues.
Then, someone let me know that you and your co-horts (company writers)
wrote most of the material...
No wonder most of them actually had a dramatic arc. You're very good."

"Last night's Monologue Challenge was the best one ever put on by the Actor's Project.
  The level of acting has greatly improved, the choice of materials excellent and the length
of the evening was just right.  All in all, a very  impressive evening. 
Done the way it should be done.  Congratulation to you, Bobby Holder,
and the very talented actors of the Actor's Project."

Excerpts from Review of: Monologue Madness
Presented by The Actor's Project NYC.

From Marty Glenn of listings.OOBR.com and www.OnOffOff.com and www.comedyclubreveiew.com

Monologue Madness was a series of short presentations - two to five minutes each - by a troupe of 14 actors. The monologues covered the gamut of stand-up comedy to serious dramatic presentations. It was a thoroughly enjoyable evening, and every performance was meritorious in it's own way.

I arrived ten minutes before curtain up and the stage was already decorated with actors. One particularly conspicuous presence was a gaily decorated female clown positioned squarely in the center of the stage. Less obvious - on stage left- was the two some of Kristin Carter and Charity Bess chatting. Or were they? I found the highly animated stream of facial expressions by Kristin - a constant dance of smiles, nods and bouncing eyebrows - to be absolutely mesmerizing. I kept wondering, "Is that really a coincidental conversation or part of the act?" In any event, it kept me entertained till the performances started.

I've recently been evaluating comedy clubs, where the performances consist exclusively of the stand-up genre. I found the diversity of Monologue Madness to be refreshing and conducive to a more fulfilling entertainment experience. As I said, I thought that every presentation was worthwhile, but - frankly - it seemed to me that the girls carried the evening. I felt that Kristin Carter and Cassandra Cooke's dramatic presentations were the perfect juxtaposition with the comedy of Claysey Everett. Claysey reminds me a bit of Jackie Gleason in his early days. I'm having conflict writing a review because I think this evening should be evaluated in its entirety and singling out individual performances seems to miss the point.

Monologue Madness was presented July 8th at The Royal Theatre.
