* Many Creator/{{Shakespear|e}}ian soliloquies can be played this way, especially Iago's in ''Theatre/{{Othello}}''. However, they are just as often addressed to God(s) or forces of nature, and sometimes played as the character speaking his or her thoughts aloud to him/herself.

Most monologues in the world of theater are directed from one character on stage to another, or to multiple characters, or sometimes to someone or something that is not even there (which makes it an apostrophe). An Audience Monologue is when a character delivers a speech to the audience. This does not require {{breaking the fourth wall}}; the audience does not need to be referred to as an audience, and the character does not need to recognize his or her fictional nature. Rather, the effect is that the audience is drawn into the play as a (frequently ambiguous) separate entity in the plot. Sometimes the audience is meant to be a crowd assembled at the scene being portrayed; sometimes the audience is supposed to be a projection of the character's own consciousness, making the monologue reflect an interior thought process.

* ''The Boys Next Door'', about a group of mentally disabled men living in a group home together, has several, most of which come from Jack, the men's caretaker, as he talks about life with the men, the prejudices they face, and his own increasing sense of burnout. The most moving of these monologues, though, belongs to Lucien, a severely mentally handicapped man, forced to appear before a judge when he's in danger of losing his disability funds. For this brief monologue, Lucien becomes a confident, articulate adult, addressing the audience about the trials of his disability and how the system may try to ignore him, but he will not simply go away. When he is finishes, he sits back down, and it's revealed that no time has passed and he hasn't said a word, because he's unaware of what's actually happening.
