<aside> 🎭 THE ARCHETYPES

</aside>

For those of you looking to flex a new type or build out your current repertoire, we’ve categorized each monologue as one of 13 storytelling archetypes.

These archetypes go beyond “ingenue,” “leading man,” or “character actor.” These 13 types pull from (mostly) Jungian psychology and are frequently employed by writers in every genre. Each piece is labeled under the “Archetypes” section, as well as an emoji in the monologue’s title for quick reference.

Explore the archetypes below:

• 🙏🏻 The Innocent (Boords)

• 🧍🏻 The Orphan (Boords)

• ⚡ The Hero (Boords)

• ☕ The Caregiver (Boords)

• 👠 The Seducer (Boords)

• 🏍️ The Rebel (Boords)

• 💞 The Lover (Boords)

• ⚙️ The Creator (Boords)

• 🃏 The Joker (Boords)

• 👨🏻‍🏫The Mentor (Boords)

• 🔮 The Magician (Boords)

• 👑 The Ruler (Boords)

• 🧭 The Explorer (Dabble)

Notes:

• Union provides great examples of what these archetypes look like in commercial work, and Nathan Baugh lists 77 different examples.

*Archetypes are distinct from actor type, having more to do with the character’s role in the narrative structure.
