PREP Play! We Got Our Roles!

25.9.2020

Hi again, it's Miriam and today we had another day of PREP. I had so much fun going throughout the play over and over again. One of the reasons I enjoyed PREP a lot today was because today we got our roles for the play. Even though these roles are not set in stone I was very happy to know that the teacher thought I was good enough to have a good role. As well as getting our roles we focused a lot on working together as a team and staying in charecter. 

At the beginning of the day we got into a circle and worked on a really hard teamwork game. The game was aimed to help teammates understand how other people in their group work and kind of help people feel their other teammates rhythm of work. How the game worked was however many people there were we would have to reach that number by going from 1 to however many people there were. The only problem with that is we aren't allowed to communicate who is going to say the number next so we had to wait until someone has already said a number to day the next one. Everytime that more than one person said the same number we had to start form one again.

After we did that Mr. Sparks, our drama teacher, told us where we were going to stand on the stage and what role we are going to be. My role is the Mexican Caterer who crashes his truck into the sea so there is no food. My character's name is Jose and he has to speak with a Spanish accent. Since I have a very vivid American accent it is very hard for me to sound Mexican but I will keep on practicing over the hollidays.

Thank you for reading my post.
