"In this clip on how to audition for a Broadway play, I'm going to talk about objective. This is one of the most important things in acting; what do you want in you monologue? So if I say; if I'm talking to my best friend, I'm talking about this person who loves me, I say that he loves me; he knows me for who I am and he loves me, he can't help himself from loving me for exactly who I am. This is my monologue from Queens Boulevard; I, what do I want; why am I telling my best friend this? In my mind’s eye; it's always good to pick a subject verb, a strong action. For me personally for this monologue I picked; I want to convince her that I'm in a fantastic amazing relationship, maybe right before this monologue; the moment before she said to me so you really love him or is this really going to work out, or; or why do you really love him and I so my job is to convince her, my objective is to show her my love; how much, how real it is so it, it would be like this. I see that he loves me; he knows me for who I am and he loves me, he can't help himself from loving me for exactly who I am and I love him too for exactly who he is. I have a real purpose objective; can't state the importance enough."
