I hear those sleigh bells jingling!

We're nearly at the holidays!

A Block -- No journals today as you did your journal on Monday.  Make sure you keep bringing contributions for the canned food drive.  Think how hard it would be to be hungry at this time of year.

B Block -- We have about a month left in this class!  (Time flies while you're having fun.)  Writers and directors -- can you give me your script for the panto asap?  You can give me one for the two of you, or you can each write your own version -- whichever you like.  After we come back from the holidays, you should have an original script (10 pages or less) in the works (which you could finish in the first week back).

Theatre production --  You guys are expected to "produce" the panto.  Find costumes, make props, do the lighting and sound.  You should have your jobs listed in your journal.  Get a copy of your group's script and make sure you set it up to run light and sound with it.  We will have a dress rehearsal of the final product on Wednesday and then an extravaganza on Thursday!

Actors -- Who are you playing in the panto?  What will you do?  What does your character want?  What obstacles does the character face?  How will you create a believable character?  What challenges are you facing as an actor?  How can you overcome these challenges?

As I said for theatre production, I want to see the final panto on Thursday!  Dress rehearsal on Wednesday!  Shall I invite some classes to come and enjoy them?

C Block --  Whose Shakespeare scene impressed you the most?  Explain why.

What are the rules of theatre sports?
