There’s a lot of room to read this one the way you want to, with different shades of ways the dialogue can be delivered. “I Haven’t a Real Passport” The Cherry Orchard If you’re looking for something that will make the audience laugh while still being able to flex your acting range, you could do far worse than this one. The word choice is just so perfect for the sheer amount of exasperation the speaker must feel, ending with the perfect punch line. If you’re looking for something angry and comical, this is an excellent choice. “Well, Tommy Proposed to Me Again” An Ideal Husband The run time is about a minute and a half, as it has been for most of these, but it’s suitable for building vitriol into your delivery without becoming crass.Ħ.
