Duologues are used by drama school examining boards, students for their final year showcases, and professional actors’ training centres. They provide a concentrated way of practising skills and encourage actors to listen and respond.

This collection of forty-five duologues is selected from a range of plays, from Elizabethan to contemporary.

Jean Marlow and Eamonn Jones, both experienced teachers, have chosen duologues which vary in style, offer a range of emotions and include parts for a variety of accents and ages.

Much helpful advice is given in the book by contributors such as Tom Stoppard, April De Angelis, Don Taylor and representatives from the London Academy of Music and Drama (LAMDA), Guildhall School of Music and Drama – both use duologues in their external exams – and the Actors’ Centre.
