This week we started Jack and the Bean stalk. We were firstly assigned roles. After this we looked at the scripts we created last lesson and began to act them out. We started with the first scene were the audience first meets the characters in Jack and the Beanstalk. We decided to use narration in the play, this will help the audience understand what is happening.
In this play we also decided to include multiple songs. Our idea for the entire piece is include different ways to tell a story, as our unit is called story telling. The age group we are performing to, which is primary schools, makes it easy to tell stories in different ways. For the Jack and the beanstalk we decided to make it a musical. Musical's help to engage the audience in each scene. The songs would appeal to the our age group and we made sure they were appropriate.
We were able to choreograph a song to "magic" which we all sing and dance to when Jack gets the Beans from the Bean man. Next week we hope to finish the piece.
