We’ve Got A ‘Spring’ In Our Step and We Wont Be ‘Shellfish’!

Theatr na n'Og

Theatr na n'Og- Aesops Fables , Gardyne Theatre at Dundee College , March 30, 2012
Theatr na n'Og by Theatr na n'Og- Aesops Fables Thursday was another super exciting day At 11 o’clock we went to Gardyne Theatre at Dundee College, it was really cool, and we saw a show called Aesop’s Fables.

It starred a mean Lion, a Mouse who needed to become a better friend and a Clever Tortoise.

We thought it had everything- it was funny and it taught us how to be kind, clever, never judge others and not to be ’shellfish’ (as the Mouse said)! We talked about in class and decided we would give it 10 out of 10. Here are some of our thoughts on it;

Aneel – “I liked the Lion because he scared everyone but he learned to be kind.”

Abigail – “I liked the Mouse and the Tortoise because the Tortoise came around everyone on the stage and the Tortoise won the race and the Mouse waved a flag. The Mouse was scared of the Lion and he was funny. Some of it was funny and some of it wasn’t but it was all good.”

Manahil- “ I liked the bit where the Lion roared and he was about to eat the Mouse but he became friends with the Tortoise and the Mouse but they shaked hands and it was funny.”

Demilade- “I liked it when there was a net on the Lion and the Mouse helped him even though he was mean.”

Scott- “I like just the Mouse because he was a great actor and l liked the running. The Lion wasn’t scary but lm happy about that and he was good.”

Aamir- ” I liked it. It was a funny one.”

John – ” It was good. I liked the Mouse when he woke the Lion up. I liked when they all became friends at the end. It’s good to be friends.”

Courtney- ” When they were running around in the race l liked it because the Lion should have won because it is fast but the Tortoise won.I liked the end of the race too when they woke the Lion up.”

We all had a great time, including our teachers, and we would really like to thank the staff of Gardyne Theatre and Theatr-Nanog for inviting us to come and for being really helpful when we were there. We would also like to say a special thank you to Alan Dear and Marilyn Binnie who really helped us out with Loops and gave our teachers a book with some great work in it for us to do.
