A very thorough book with some extremely interesting activities outlined for rehearsing Shakespearean monologues. * Word Matters (STSD) * I fumed and laughed and cried. A rich, varied and timely anthology of monologues for Everywoman. Clean Break is giving actors of ALL ages, ethnicities and backgrounds an opportunity to shine. * Indira Varma, Actor * Clean Break has an archive of incredible monologues for women; women whose voices aren’t often heard and whose experience is rarely given this level of complexity and humanity . . . A special resource that I wish had been around when I was at drama school. * Zawe Ashton, Actor and Clean Break Patron * Rebel Voices is a compelling anthology and a unique insight into a brilliant, ground-breaking theatre company. * Kathy Burke, Theatre Director *
