Fetch one monologue's catalogue entry by its numeric id. Follow the returned `url` for the full text.
shallow

The current 'Monologue of the Day' — the piece most recently posted to the site's social feeds.
shallow
get_paraphrased_monologue
Fetch a monologue's full text alongside its modern-English, line-by-line paraphrase. The paraphrase is AI-generated (Claude) and may be null if it hasn't been generated yet — the `url` always has the monologue itself.

shallow

Fetch an AI-generated summary of the scene a monologue appears in (context for the speech). May be null if not generated yet.
shallow
list_all_monologues_for_a_character
List every monologue spoken by a given character (e.g. 'Hamlet', 'Rosalind'). Matches the character name exactly first, then as a substring.
shallow
list_plays
List Shakespeare's plays with their classification (Comedy/History/Tragedy) and monologue counts.
shallow
random_monologue
Return one random monologue, with optional gender/play filters. Useful for a suggestion when the user is undecided.
