Children's Nativity Rehearsal - DEVISED

September 24th, Thursday

This lesson Miss split us into two groups and we had to devise a piece similar to the plot of the Flint Street Nativity because we had to create a scene full of children preparing for their nativity. I played a character who was essentially me when I was a child because I remember distinctively my behaviour as a child and thinking back to it now I realise I was so unintentionally funny. My character was very honest and unsubtle. With lines such as "Jesus can't be brown!" my bossy and blunt character creates a funny scene. I included exaggerated lies that little children tell like "JESUS IS REAL I GO TO HIS HOUSE EVERY SUNDAY!" I also elongated a lot of my words because I've found that children are very whiny and moan a lot. We performed our pieces to the other group and I think that both groups did really well. In fact; I think it's the best we've done yet. I hope that next lesson we all perform this well and that we are all happy when we find out our parts soon.
