SEARCH WITH PURPOSE

Not every script is the right fit — but the right piece will speak to you.
 

Ask yourself:

  • What topics are important to me?

  • What do I enjoy reading or watching?

  • Can I relate to this material personally?

  • Will it sound powerful when read aloud?

  • Does it offer emotional and character depth?

  • Will this resonate with a wide audience?

​

Your voice is powerful — choose literature worthy of it.

WHERE TO FIND YOUR SCRIPT

Locating a script is a time-consuming process...DON'T RUSH IT! Most coaches have extensive libraries that you can go to, so definitely ask your coach. However, their libraries are often built from pieces they have either seen, read, or heard about...and their libraries may not contain literature that you like. Therefore, listed below are websites that you can go to find scripts. Don't be afraid to ask your coach to purchase a script if you find one!
