"I was Mr. Scrooge. I liked my
character. There were two Scrooges because the part was really long.
We had a lot of fun and
we worked so hard. Then we had to choose our costumes and prepare the setting.
First we acted for the kids, but it was a disaster, because we didn't know when
we had to go in and when we had to stay on stage. But then we acted for our
parents. I was so nervous! It was good. Everybody did it very well and the
parents that came liked it very much."
Sara
“I played Man Two. I
was in the future with Man One, talking about Scrooge. I liked my part a
lot because I only spoke three times and I didn’t have problems to memorize my
part! I liked the play because it was very funny and we laughed a lot during
rehearsals.
Carlos
“I played Narrator
2. My part was long but it wasn’t difficult. I also helped my teacher with
the curtain. I thinks that people who did it better were Sara and Guille
because they were the main characters. People think that the paly was fantastic
and good. I don’t like acting, but I think just the same as my classmates do.”
Alicia
“I played the first part
of the main character, Scrooge. I liked the play, I love acting and my
character was really good for that. I think we did a very good job. We also
made very nice crafts for the background. They were really original.”
Guillermo
“My part was Boy
1. He was a boy who was walking on the street. Suddenly Scrooge shouts at
him and gives him money to buy a turkey. It took us a long time to prepare the
play, we’ve been working for two months. I liked it, but I don’t want to act
again, I don’t like people watching me.”
Jenni
“I played the Ghost of
Christmas Past. I was going with Scrooge and visited his past life: the
school he attended, his house… The first time we acted it was a disaster
because we didn’t know when to go on stage or when to go out, but the second
time was much better. I liked the play a lot, my favourite actor was Guille.”
Anxo
“My part was Bob Cratchit, Scrooge’s clerk. He is a
poor clerk with a wife and kids, earning the minimal salary. Mrs. Cratchit and
him don’t have enough money to buy food, so in the end Scrooge buys a turkey
for the family. I liked my part because I like acting in plays, but I didn’t
know about that because I had never done it in English before!”
Jessica
“The play was funny and
amusing. I played the Ghost of Christmas Present and had to memorize one
and a half pages. I prepared my part a lot, so that people would enjoy it. “
Jacobo
"My character was the Woman. She was
young Scrooge's girlfriend. I only had three lines to learn, I had a lot of
exams and I couldn't study for the play. My favourite activity was painting the
background."
