A collection of contemporary Canadian monologues for women, intended for auditions, study or general interest and addressing themes of Adolescence, Body, Childhood Memories, Identity, Mothers, and Passion.
"A monologue must give voice to those who have been silenced. The speaker must urgently need to speak, to proclaim, to persuade, to incite, to inspire, to agitate, to fabricate, to contaminate or whitewash, to justify; the speaker needs approval, or absolution, or acclaim, or worship, or laughter or sympathy. The monologue can only happen if the speaker has an audience. The monologue is ultimately the electric interaction between the audience and the speaker."
—from the introduction by Judith Thompson

She Speaks: Monologues for Women
I found that I couldn't take the content seriously while watching the videotaped production from 1982. One man shows are no longer particularly popular (at least not in my world), so I couldn't take it seriously. The print version was an entirely different kettle of fish.
Based on the career of a real Canadian war hero, Billy Bishop, this play accurately illustrates the war machine in my mind. It captures the mentality and beliefs of 1914. This was the war that was going to end all wars; this was the war that killed a generation of colonial men and European men who were barely old enough to shave, who had no idea what they were really signing up for. This was the war that made it a sin to survive it.
Encompassing trench soldiers, cavalrymen, and flyboys, I think this play has great historical significance, and not only for Canada. I hope that came through in my ramblings above.
