I realize your question has been around for a while. I tell my students to stay away from monologue sites and actually read plays from scripts. The websites are so picked over and have many untested, unpublished and too many "I remember" monologues. Read scripts!.Piece together. It is okay. Just plan on putting time into finding good material.
What if you know what you’d probably be good as in a film/show but you can’t find a monologue for it? I feel that I’d be good as a young antihero (I’m 12 goring on 13) in an action movie. But, I can’t find any monologues that would fit my “character”. Should I just try a script from an already made movie/show? What if the show is popular in my country? Am I allowed to do that? I really need help!
It’s up to the individual on what monologue they decide to choose. They can choose one from a popular play or one that is less known. What tends to be more important though are the importance of character and how much those characters are present. For example the more popular a piece is, the more likely someone is to have already seen it (by other actors auditioning or professional actors) which can make it hard to not compare one actor to another, even subconsciously. Now when you say a list, I assume you are mainly referring to this for classical monologues, correct? Unless you are already in drama school, than they may give a list to choose from, but normally when audition for drama school programs you get to choose your monologues (with the somewhat exception to your classical monologue, as they will suggest a playwright to you, but not necessarily a play.) this is normally how the process will go for 99% of your drama school auditions.
Go for the lesser well-known plays. It’s not the material that will ‘book you the job’, it’s your technique, attitude and preparation. I have sat through an endless stream of the same well-known monologue. Give us something new.
Never been able to try acting because my insecurities, but I know that’s something I have to learn to get past, this video inspired me
You got this! Go get ‘em!

Hi I'm taking an acting class right now and we each have to do a monologue. What monologue would you recommend for a thirty-five year old woman?
any suggestions for a 14-17 year old?
Glad I watched this because I was just about to look for some monologues. Do you know any great sites for 21-year-olds?
monologuebloggers is a good one
@@huzaifadesign Just checked it out. The monologues are so corny. Terrible writing. But I guess they got the job done.

i get the point of when the play is too known but in some school they gives you a list of classical repertoire and you have to choose one so....
