Anywhere!!!
Corporate bookstores such a Barnes, Noble, Borders, and Amazon have tons of stuff, but you don't have to spend a any money.
Public and School Libraries will have plays. There a looks of books published of Monologues and scenes for young actors. Search for these on your library's database/card catalog. Here is a page with recommended resources for young actors. http://www.mvhsdrama.com/contemporaryscenes.htm You will need an acting partner to practice sense with, ask a friend that is serious about acting also or find one from the club. In acting you will need to master Monologues. This is a good thing to practice alone . There are plenty of Monologues on-line. Try monologuearchive.com . Or try COLIN'S MOVIE MONOLOGUE PAGE. http://www.whysanity.net/monos/. Here is some free ones for teens. "Free Monologues for kids and teens" http://www.ispgroupinc.com/monologues/monologues_for_kids_and_teens.htm
Don't forget Shakespeare. You can start working on Shakespearean monologue that will be a good audition piece for you whole career. These plays, as well as the individual monologues are all on-line. Search for them on Google.
Consider using a video camera to record you practice and then watch it to see what you do well and where to improve.
Believe in yourself, most kids in the drama club are just a nervous and new as you, whether they show it or not. Break a Leg!

Most bookstores have drama sections, however limited they may be. Check the Samuel French book store. They specialize in plays, with a great selection of Monologues.

preparation? Shakespeare used to make up phrases too so because it incredibly is cool. you're already on the Bard's wavelength. permit's see- um properly the previous genius wrote some comedies so have a go in any respect's properly or Midsummer night's. keep faraway from King John and Troilus in the meanwhile and not innovations-set King Lear until you have had daughters of your guy or woman. wreck a leg and remember, it incredibly is the Scottish Play, no longer Mac aaarggghhhh.

Barnes and Noble usually has a very good selection of books of monologues and scenes. Also, any library would probably have some really good materials.

Our library has an order system whereby you can order sets of scripts to read with groups you should read scripts with other people to overcome any nerves and its a lot more fun that way. Enquire at your library to see if they can do the same. Otherwise you can order stuff straight from the publishers,
