Beschreibung zu „Lucky Charms“
Lucky Charms is a play for students in Years 6, 7 or 8 (Level 3). It is designed for a normal-sized English class and for students with varying interests in acting. Since there are 43 speaking roles and as many as ten dancers, students who enjoy acting can perform in several scenes and play to their heart's content, whereas students who aren't particularly keen on acting only have one role to master in one single scene.
Every scene deals with good or bad luck and sometimes specifically with lucky charms. And with the help of the two hosts, the professor and MC Tony, the audience is given the chance to contemplate the concept of luck.
The play consists of dialogues between the two hosts and scenes with as many as eight to 13 performers.
The themes are partly geared to the thoughts and dreams of students today - winning or discovering a lot of money, having the best cell phone, feeling that something good is going to happen or fearing that misfortune is on its way - and the scenes offer young actresses and actors the opportunity to experience a wide range of characters while performing.
The plots are not always believable, but they are understandable, the language is idiomatic and easily accessible for English learners.
Lucky Charms works well when performed for smaller audiences: parents and other classes. But it can also be highly entertaining for a large audience. Performing time: about one hour.
Of course, it is also possible to select individual scenes and perform them as simple skits outside the context of Lucky Charms. In that case it is still recommendable to create a suitable setting for presenting the skits to an audience.
The true joy of performing a foreign-language play is to feel it click, to realize that the people watching the performance don't only get the picture, they are also delighted to see a story come to life when presented in English by non-native performers.
