Awesome

This book has everything you need to perform. Monologs (good ones, which are very hard to come by), duets, group scenes, EVERYTHING! All of them are either award winning plays or excerpts from them. Each different performance has an intro to it that gives information like: what the stage sould look like, what awards the play one, what other plays the playwright wrote and where the play was performed. The only problem is that the monologs are too short for the contests I enter. Does anyone know of any books that have 5 to 7 minute monologs? Thanks!
