Prince Charming's Other First Kiss
by Adam Berg
In this Studio C skit, Prince Charming attempts to kiss Snow White who has a few more effects of being dead than the fairy tale would have you believe. He is basically giving himself a pep talk while dealing with that "corpse" smell and maggots in her mouth. It takes some pantomime skill especially when holding her hand, only to have her arm fall off.

Here is a booklet full of monologues for Latina and Latino actors. Not all of them are long enough. Some are too long. Look for those in which the character is trying to get something from another person instead of just telling a story.
