Ms Keogh's Class 2011-2012: June 2012

Our play is called the BFG.If you are reading this,you will hopefully be coming to the play.Our play starts in a girl called Sophie's bedroom but,she isn't the Sophie from the book.It's her birthday party and all her friends are there.Her mam and dad come in and they say that the entertainer has fallen ill and can't come.So they decide to act out the BFG,Sophie's favouite book!She has a dressing up rail and gives costumes to everyone.Then the real play starts!!!Sophie(from the book)is in her bed and can't sleep.She slips out to get a drink and is shouted at by Mrs.Clonkers and goes back to bed.She then gets out of bed and walks to the window and sees a giant!She screams and the giant comes in and grabs her then runs out.While they're running around the school the scene changes to inside the BFG'S cave.They come back in through the window.Then the BFG shows Shopie the other giants and they say where they want to go to eat humans.Sophie tells the BFG that she's an orphan.The BFG is a good giant and becomes upset.Sophie asks him what he eat and he shows her all of his snozzcumbers.She tastes one and thinks it's horrible Then the Bloodbottler and the Fleshlumpeater come in and ask the BFG who he's talking to.Sophie goes to hide in a snozzcumber.The Bloodbottler then bits the snozzcumber and Sophie ends up in his mouth but he spits her out ! Then the Bloodbottler and the Fleshlumpeater leave.The BFG gets Sophie some frobscottle to make her feel better.Sophie notices the bubbles are going the wrong way when she drinks it she did what the BFG would call a 'whizzpopper'.They then go to sleep.The BFG watches Sophie during the night and says that he is going to blow dreams.Sophie asks where he gets the dreams and he takes her to dream country.They catch some dreams and the BFG shows them to Sophie.They then hear the giants shouting and learn that the other giants are going to England to eat children,so the BFG and Sophie go to warn the Queen.After that it's the second act.Sophie (not from the book) is blowing the candles out on her cake and wishes to do the second act of the play.So they do, in the second act Sophie and the BFG are at Buckingham Palace and blow a dream into the Queen's bedroom.The Queen starts to hurtle around the bed and her maid comes in.The Queen tells her about her dream and how the giants are eating people.The maid opens the curtains and finds Sophie hiding behind it.Sophie tells the Queen about the BFG and calls him in.They have dinner and the Queen calls the Queen of Sweden to see if the BFG is telling the truth.After that the Queen calls in the Head of the Army and the Head of the Airforce to track down the giants and put them in a huge pit.After they do that, the BFG is awarded with a medal and Sophie and all of her orphan friends come to live with the Queen.The BFG says goodbye to Sophie and goes back to his cave.I really hope enjoy it as much as we enjoy performing it!
