THOSE 10th GRADE REPS
By
Tara Meddaugh
Hudson has just attended a Student Government meeting at his High School. He was so impressed with how Audrey, the president, ran the meeting, that he starts to see her in a new way. He is bowled over by her command of the room and suddenly entirely smitten with, and attracted to, her. He speaks to Audrey privately outside of the school, waiting for the bus after their meeting.

*The standard version of this monologue contains 1 curse-word in the last line, but in that same document, I offer an alternative last line, as well, if you’re looking to avoid swearing, or if you just prefer the secondary line. It conveys a slightly different sentiment and character—and both options have their own merit.
*Additionally, I offer a version of this monologue with no option of the curse-word, only containing the alternative ending with no swearing.
Both digital download options are available below.

HUDSON
(to Audrey. He struggles to find the words at first)
You are…Audrey, I mean… That was… The way you ran that meeting was… You could be the President of the country, not just Student Government. Yeah, I know it’s “only a bake sale” you’re organizing, not like inflation rates or something, but you still had to control the room, right? And those 10th Grade Reps were trying to talk over you, but you…!
Audrey…you stopped them.
