New 2-Minute Woman's Christmas Monologue - More Than Santa
So…you’ve fallen in love with the Mall Santa. I mean, what’s not to love, right? (Well…) But what if you’ve never seen him sans-white beard and velvet coat? Can you be sure you’ve fallen for the real man behind the suit? Will you still be happy to share hot cocoa with him when he doesn’t smell like candy canes?
This is the situation Brandy, and her new Mall-Santa-Boyfriend, Kris, find themselves in. Kris is scared Brandy won’t love him when he doesn’t hold Holiday Celebrity Status anymore. He’s been dumped by women post-Christmas before. In the monologue, More Than Santa, Brandy has to convince Kris that she is not only attracted to his white beard (because, come on—that beard!), but she will keep on being attracted to him when she sees him for the first time tomorrow, December 26, not dressed as Santa.
More Than Santa is a 2-minute comedic/dramatic monologue for a female actor, late teens to 40s+. Check out an excerpt below. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

BRANDY
(to Kris, her new boyfriend, the Mall Santa)
I know you’re worried everything’s going to change tomorrow because Christmas will be over. I get it and I—I’m not going to lie. Your white beard is…freakin’ sexy—I said “freakin,’” Kris—I keep it PG for you and the elves—But you know it is. It’s so…so fluffy…I could bury my face in it for hours. And—oh…Kris, that laugh… When I first heard your “ho ho ho?” I mean. Please. I was a melted puddle of snowwoman at your feet.

Of course…we all have these things that attract us to people at first. You liked my green pleather skirt and thigh high boots, remember? But we, you know, since then, we’ve connected deeper than that initial attraction. You—you’re so funny—having these long conversations with pets people bring to the mall, and when we share hot chocolate at the Food Court, like now…you always let me have the marshmallows. All of them.
(pause)
Look, I know we’ve only had five dates since we met on Black Friday, and—END OF EXCERPT
