I flicked through a monologue produced by Soho Theatre London. Found differing word counts depending how generous I was but found it to be at least 4900 words spoken by the character. This play had lots of physical movement based bits.
I'm at 4418 for my piece and I'm wondering if there is some kind of consensus that 5000 would be an hour? or more?
I'd like it to be an hour - for a stand alone.
There are not really that many actions. It's physical but it really is just how the actor moves on stage while speaking, there is no time taken in just physical alone.
I am worried that I will get more stretched, but I think with time taken i can get it right.
