There are three main types of monologue; there is the traditional monologue, which involves one character speaking for a long time to one or more other characters ("So as you can all see, Jim was murdered"). There is the soliloquy which involves a character speaking to themselves (One of the most famous soliloquies is Hamlet's, "To be, or not to be: that is the question"). And then there's the Aside. The aside involves an actor talking DIRECTLY to the audience (a notable series of asides were done in the movie "Ferris Bueller's Day Off")
