My T.A. put it best when she gave me this instruction: "Comedy is wide-eyed. Drama is squinty-eyed." And that's how you do comedy... everything very serious and heightened, just wide-eyed. It's harder than it looks. You'd be surprised how unnatural opening your eyes super wide feels, but hey that's why we're learning.

Comedic Monologue Early Work Evolution: Luv by Murray Schisgal
Somewhat progression. Supposed to be comedic monologue. These were the earlier versions of it. I didn't record it recently, but i think it turned out okay at the end when i performed it for my final and for proficiencies (audition to move up to the next level)... though i got to say, comedy is hard.
