Hi, what’s up everyone? 😀
On thursday, November 24th, the European Classes, in the company of the Literary Class, came to l’Empire, the cinema of Auxonne, to watch an English play. Indeed, EITC actors came especially for us in order to show us their play « On the Docks ».
What are they talking about?? What is EITC??
Let us explain everything. EITC is an irish theatre company which acts only in France and Belgium in front of bilingual students to let them improve their English. They want us to have fun with plays full of comedy, of actions, in which they’re singing… That’s amazing!
By the way, come and glance at their website: http://www.eitc.fr/shows/docks
THE PLOT
Let’s talk about the plot. Everything starts with a girl in distress who’s attempting to jump off the cliff. The sceneis really dramatic with intense music and STOP.
The story goes back to the beginning.
The investigator Mike is arresting a criminal and he learns that his uncle died so he goes back home to attend his uncle’s funeral. Overthere, he’s welcomed by his cousin Ultan, his aunt Bridget and Ultan’s girlfriend Cathy. Ultan dreams of being an architect but his mother wants him to be a fisherman. At the funeral, the fishermen ask Bridget for more safety on the boats after her husbands death but she says NO. Then Ultan disappeared and Mike and Cathy are going to look for him through the island… What is going to happen?
AND ICING ON THE CAKE
Three of our classmates and friends, Lucie, Mathilde and Solene, acted among the actors!!! Among them, Lucie, gives us her feedback: « An amazing play performed by wonderful persons! Cheerful, funny, kind and dynamic, I spent such a good time by their side. Always smiling, joking, they even managed to make me forget how anxious I was. Before to rehearse our scene, we all played a game in order to relax. Unfortunately, I only got third place… But no matter! It was still a great time! Afterwards, they gave us some advice such as talking loudly, clearly and especially to have FUN!!! »
