In the classical monologue, Hermione, The queen of Sicilia is accused of adultery and treason by her husband, the King. In prison, she gives birth to a girl and at the trial, she pleads NOT GUILTY. Her objectives are to assert her innocence, to shame her husband with her protestations, to honour and respect her King while maintaining her dignity, majesty and propriety. Also, she does not fear death as her life is so unbearable.
In the modern monologue chosen, the character I play is The Wild One. The play is about seven birds each having the characteristics of a type of woman, imprisoned in a cage. They have become used to their capture and are now unwilling to return to outside the world. The Wild One, who has just been captured, thinks quite differently and tries to stir the other one's feelings, to join her in escape.

In Soho centre, I performed the classical monologue. I believe that it went quite well.
