“GOING, GOING, GONE” (drama) 1 minute

February 1, 2007 by The Monologue Blogger

Filed under 1 Minute Monologues, Female Monologues - Drama, MB Library

Monologue Description:  “Going, Going, Gone” is a monologue about being taken for granted.

Character Description:  Kierna is a devoted wife and mother to say the least.  She is efficient at everything she does but it takes its toll on her.  Being great at everything is no easy task, even for someone as remarkable as Kierna.  In this monologue she vents in the middle of her kitchen out-loud for all to hear.

KIERNA:  

Rushing.  That’s all I do…RUSH.  I am a professional rusher.  I rush to the market, rush to get my nails done, rush to get my hair done, rush to cook dinner, rush at work, rush to pick up my mother, rush to do the laundry, rush to pick the kids up from school. 

RUSH, RUSH, RUSH, RUSH, RUSH, RUSH, RUSH

Sick of it!  I need a break!  I need time for myself!  I feel unappreciated and I should be.  I feel unloved and I should be.  People take advantage of me and it’s sickening.  When is MY time going to come?  When will I be the one catered to?  All day long, I do this, I do that, I run here, I run there.  And all the while I get moans and grunts and sour puss faces and frowned eye brows and no respect!

I take shit from my boss, my husband, my mother, the kids and I HAVE HAD IT!  I’m packing my shit and I am GOING GOING GONE.  I’m packing my shit and am going to go off on an island by myself.

When I’m dead and buried is when you will all realize.

    Hey this monologue is the best, I’m using it for an audition and it has been really easy to memorize. My friend katrina used it and she like totally got the lead part in a play. To tell you the truth, she is the worst actress in the world. Well im using it. Thanks for posting it. bye

    I love this monologue. Where can I find the film this monologue is in? I have looked every store. No one has heard of it. I need to see how the character is played.
    Help
    Thanks Loads.

    Hi Vicki, all the monologues are original pieces of work in and of themselves. No play or movie is built around them. It is only the monologue itself.

    If you need additional help with the material, let me know. Thanks
