MonologueSlam UK is back at Theatre Royal Stratford East, bringing you the newest and most exciting talent in the UK!

MonologueSlam is a nationwide industry showcase for actors from all backgrounds. 22 actors are given the opportunity to perform for a welcoming audience and a panel of industry professionals who are in a position to move their careers forward.
