A little History about our signature Smith and Kraus Stage Monologue Series.

Smith & Kraus started the Annual Stage Monologue Series in 1990, the year that we started publishing. In fact, the Best Men’s and Best Women’s Stage  Monologues of 1990 were the first titles that Smith and Kraus published. It’s hard to believe that back in 1990 there were only a handful of stage monologue books for actors, and most of them were published as small staple bound volumes. And at the time, there were no collections of monologues from plays produced that season or the previous one. In 2011 We added the Best 10 Minute Play books to our annual series.
