    I'm searching for a powerful dramatic interpretation piece for a strong male highschool forensicator. Open to suggestions but looking for something to really wow the judges.

    Bury the Dead (1936) is an expressionist anti-war drama by the American playwright Irwin Shaw. It dramatises the refusal of six dead soldiers during an unspecified war-who represent a cross-section of American society-to be buried. Each rises from the grave to express his anguish, the futility of war, and his refusal to become part of the "glorious past" to the woman who has survived him. It was first staged in New York in 1936 to great acclaim.

    Hi Tanya,
    I have two I can recommend off the top...TWO ROOMS has some great monologues about an American hostage.  TOYER is about a man who kidnaps women and "toys" with them instead of killing them.
    Good Luck!
