The 2024 Edele Winnie
Women's Monologue
Competition
The third annual Edele Winnie Women's Monologue Competition featured a record-breaking 15 contestants, who entertained enthusiastic audiences over two fantastic evenings of performances!
This year was extra special as each monologue chosen from Other Mother Goose told one part of a complete story; described by the author as "a tale about what happens when you step outside of your comfort zone, when you take a risk and become something that you never imagined you'd be".
At the end of the final performance on March 23rd, the winners were revealed: first place (gold) walked away with $300; second place (silver) received $200; third place (bronze) received $100; and ALL runners-up received $50.
Here are the final results:

Only time will tell. But with nearly 200 monologues yet to be performed from her first three books, Edele Winnie has already given Windsor-Essex women plenty of spectacular material to choose from either way!
