These include monologues where a single actor addresses the audience, often retelling stories from her life, some traditional songs in language, and mime. The use of different technologies such as words projected on a surface add depth to the piece. The tone varies, driven by both the content and the style. Styles drift from colloquial soliloquy to stand-up comedy to court reports.
