The purpose of this article is to analyse how Alan Bennett manages to make viewers empathise with the narrators of his Talking Heads monologues. Indeed, in these monologues, the discourse structure of the narratives could very well be perceived a hindrance to readerly involvement and the themes touched upon often appear mundane despite their universality. However, these monologues, which have become contemporary classics, are effective: viewers / readers manage to feel with the different narrators. Doris’s monologue in “A Cream Cracker Under the Settee” is analysed here as an example of Alan Bennett’s dramatic tour de force.
