The Lorax Monologue
I performed in a play “The Lorax”, which was based on Dr. Seuss’s book “The Lorax”. I played the role of “The Lorax”. The Lorax was the main character and protagonist of the play. The antagonist of the play was “The Onceler”.

The Onceler was a greedy man. He wanted to make money by using fur from Truffula Trees. As he cuts the first tree, The Lorax pops out. The Lorax said, “I speak for the trees, for the trees have no tongues.” The Lorax tried to stop The Onceler, but The Onceler was greedy enough not to stop. One by the one, The Onceler cut down all the trees and The Lorax disappeared. The removal of tree lead to pollution and the air became unbreathable.

The Onceler learned from his mistake and was worried about his wrongdoing. Before

    Analysis Of The Lorax: Once-Ler

    As a tribute to Audrey’s influence on the book Dr. Seuss dedicated The Lorax to her and her two daughters. The Lorax was a story about Once-Ler (a repentant ex-industrialist) who tells how he and his thneed company polluted the environment destroying the Truffula Trees, driving the Lorax and the animals away. Dr. Seuss got an award in November 1971, the anti-litter organization predicted that The Lorax would “undoubtedly charm many children and adults into becoming pollution fighters (Seuss, 2015).” The National Oak Flooring Manufacturers Association has published its own pro-logging rebuttal, Truax. The Lorax has even…

    Dr. Seuss's the Lorax Essay Example

    The Lorax The Lorax by Dr. Seuss is a children's book about greed and destruction. The book is set in the forest of Truffula Trees. The Once-ler was riding through the country in his wagon one day and discovers the beautiful forest of Truffula Trees. Way back in the day when the grass was still green And the pond was still wet And the clouds were still clean, And the song of the Swomee-Swans rang out in space… One morning I came to this glorious place. And I first saw the trees! The Truffula Trees! The bright colored tufts of the Truffula Trees! Mile after mile in the fresh morning breeze. The forest of the Truffula Trees was very lush and full of life. The Brown Bar-ba-loots were playing in their Bar-ba-loot suits and the Humming-Fish were humming. It was a utopia, a heaven on Earth. The Once-ler was greedy though and didn't see the natural beauty of the Truffula Trees. Instead, the Once-ler saw the trees and thought of all the money he could make by chopping them down and knitting their tufts into Thneeds. When he chopped down the first Truffula Tree the Lorax came to his office to speak for the trees. He begged the Once-ler to not chop down the Truffula Trees, but the Once-ler was convinced that his Thneeds were the things that everyone needs. A Thneed's a Fine-Something-That-All-People-Need! It's a shirt. It's a sock. It's a glove. It's a hat. But it has other uses. Yes, far beyond that. So the Once-ler sold his first Thneed and he was in business. Here was the chance for the Once-ler and his family to be rich so he called them all up and started a business. The Once-ler built a factory and his business was in full tilt. He chopped as many Truffula Trees as he could and kept making more and more Thneeds. He expanded and used super ax hackers that could cut down four trees at once. The Lorax came back and had more complaints for the Once-ler. NOW… thanks to your hacking my trees to the ground, There's not enough Truffula Fruit to go 'round. And my poor…

    Simon Krell Monologue

    Blood is a fascinating hue. It’s sometimes crimson, scarlet, ruby red, or even bold red. Crimson is the stain that’s painted on my fingers, since I just accomplished a mission-to murder Simon Krell, who continued torturing his family members on a daily basis. Although he continued being a dangerous man, it was so simple to kill him that it occurred to be laughable, all the acting skills I needed was to pretend to act alike his maid and suddenly shoot the filthy person. As I laughed, my storm eyes gazed at the glowing sky that had waves of gleaming dots on it. A silver ellipse remained framed in the inky sky, supported with millions of winking balls of fire.…

As he approaches a middle of the stage, we see the white tiles of the New York metro behind him. He doesn't move any further, but puts the suitcase and the bouquet on the ground and stands with a hazy look focused on whatever that is in front of him. From the other side, a COLLEAGUE appears.…

    Del-Zek Monologue

    I wanted to capture the thoughts and reactions of Del-Zek leading up to his death, which is why it is more like an inner monologue than just an ordinary journal entry. It's not really realistic for Del to write in a book right before being killed but I felt this was a great way to end his character arc as he lets go of his anger and truly accepts the great things in his life, including his teammates, who he has grown to care for, and Xaidan, the love of his life.…

    I, Captain Torres, who believes that our country should have better conditions, am here to bring out a new revolution! You people, who oppose us, definitely did not think it through! Have you ever thought about your living conditions? Wouldn’t you want to improve it? Or make it a better place for all of us to live in? Look at yourself and look at people around you! Don’t you people see what’s going on in our country? Do any of you even have the mood to just smile for one second? Eight years ago, November 18, 1968, in Turkey, Richard Moses, the leader of the Turkish people in a town, brought out a revolution! It was a total success! You stupid people didn’t know about it, did you? Every single person in Turkey cheered for the dramatic change! They received good food, decent wages, ethical living conditions, and millions more! Don’t you want any of those fantastic conditions? Take some time to think about your stupid actions stopping us! Think precisely! This is actually not only for our advantages, but also for the good of everyone single person here in this town! I command all of you to listen to me and support me! You will be living in broken houses, wearing torn clothes and barely having any food supplies! So, stop complaining about foolish people. Now, do not waste my precious time! Let’s get out of here! Let’s leave all these foolish people here and get on our way to the new revolution! Let’s go, I said…
