Book description
Not your typical book of monologues, this collection embodies the mission of The Kilroys, a gang of playwrights and producers who came together in Los Angeles in 2013 to stop talking about gender parity in theatre and start taking action.
In 2014, The Kilroys released their first annual List: a vetted collection of plays written by female and trans writers, nominated by hundreds of professional artistic directors, literary managers, professors, producers, directors, and dramaturgs.
This collection includes a monologue or scene from each play from the 2014 and 2015 editions of The List.
'And at last there are the Kilroys. A group of kick-ass theatre artists who declare there is no excuse, in the twenty-first century, for producers and artistic directors to insist they cannot find women or women of color in the field. The incredible Kilroys List makes visible proof that there are infinite playworlds of which our current pipelines can only dream. The Kilroys have amassed writers aplenty to fill hundreds of pipelines' Paula Vogel, from her Foreword

The ability to listen to books while multitasking is a game-changer for me. This app's user-friendly design makes navigating through books a breeze. ListenBook's intuitive controls and features have made it my preferred choice for audiobooks. An acceptable audiobook that met basic expectations. No complaints about quality but nothing remarkable either. Would listen to this narrator again but wouldn't seek them out.

I've found hidden gems in genres I never thought I'd be interested in. ListenBook's configurable auto-rewind after interruptions is a smart addition that keeps me on track. Audiobooks on the go – this app's design prioritizes convenience. Chapters make it so easy to pick up where I left off. No more hunting around. Solid performance, but not outstanding. The narrator did a fine job, though their tone was a bit monotonous at times. The story itself was engaging enough, but I wouldn’t call it unforgettable.
