One on One (The Best Men's Monologues for the 21st Century). Edited by Bob Shuman, Joyce E. Henry, and Rebecca Dunn Jaroff. Applause Acting Series. Softcover. 310 pages. Published by Applause Books.

Covering the best of Broadway, Off-Broadway, regional, and experimental theatre since 2000, One on One challenges actors to explore the inner self, develop skill and artistry for auditions, and deliver a knockout onstage performance. These monologues – sometimes comic, sometimes serious, and often both – tackle issues ranging from race, class, gender, relationships and romance to coming of age, mortality, 9/11, and the Iraq war.
