Now accepting 2026 submissions!
Deadline for the 2026 Show: TBD
We hope that having this avenue of expression will grant you the opportunity to creatively articulate your emotions, individual history, culture, and several other unique and complex truths you may hold. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions you might have!
How do you submit a monologue?
Please fill out the form below to submit your monologue. An email is not required. All submissions will be kept strictly confidential. Your anonymity is guaranteed.
We want all stories—sad, happy, funny, scary, angry, contemplative, whatever. We want all formats—anecdotes, poems, speeches, blog posts, conversations, interviews. Really, absolutely any format is acceptable. No story is too small.
For length, aim for 1-2 page single-spaced, or 2-4 pages double-spaced. If you want to submit a story, but aren’t sure how to put it on paper, please email us at metoomonologues@gmail.com. We’d be more than happy to work with you.
Examples of past monologues can be found on our podcast, on youtube, or here.
Note: We sometimes edit pieces that are too long. If you would like creative control over edits, please note it in your submission and include a good way to get in contact.
We understand that some of you may be slightly apprehensive about submitting a monologue from your personal email address. Therefore, we have created a form that you can use to send us your submission. The form asks for a monologue code. You will make up any 6-digit number and input it in the designated field. Keep this code! After we choose monologues, we will post the codes that have been chosen so that you know if your monologue will appear in the show.
You may open this form, input the required information (6-digit monologue code number that you make up), attach/upload your monologue, and it will be sent to us completely anonymously. This way, there will be absolutely nothing linking your name to your submission.
