So, you think it's easy being me? 3: Five magical monologues!

What is a monologue?

Well, it is a story told from just one person's point of view. It helps us understand them and get right into their very soul and thoughts. Even Shakespeare wrote in monologues!

So, it's the perfect way to get to know all those magical creatures who only get to live inside fairy tales or in stories that we hear at bedtime. We can get to know the fairies and the wish granters, the magic users and the mermaids of the deep...

Because they can't all be enchanted all the time...

Can they?

It's finally time to hear the first-hand, real story of five famous stars of fairy stories: a fairy; a mermaid; a goblin; a Pegasus; and even a Leprechaun! And we can find out what their lives are really like.

Think it's all wands, wishes and an easy time of it? Well, sometimes, when they're not taking care of the kids, doing the school run or picking up the weekly shop! These five monologues are told from the point of view of these classic magical creatures, taking a genre that you think you know well and twisting it into interesting, new shapes!

All the stories have the same opening line ("So, you think it's easy being me?") but go in strange and unusual directions, keeping you smiling and interested along the way.

But don't just take my word for it - let's hear it from the magical creatures themselves!
