Friends

This a play for advanced elementary school or secondary school students in Years 4, 5 or 6. Every scene deals with the general topic of friendship, the hope, the fun, the disappointment and the anger connected with finding, keeping and losing friends. THE PLAYLET SERIES is John Middleton's latest writing project, topical collections of scenes in English for English learners from Year 1 to Year 12 (Level 1 to Level 6) who want to perform (www.english-playlets.com). It is designed for a normal-sized English class and for students with varying interests in acting. Since there is a large number of roles in every playlet collection -none of which are really minor - 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. The scenes' storylines are believable and readily understandable, the language is idiomatic and easily accessible for non-native speakers. The themes are geared to the experiences of students today and adapted to the social environment of the individual age groups, offering young actresses and actors the opportunity to discover the theatrical impact of the English language in an everyday setting. There are monologues, dialogues and scenes with more performers (from three to upwards of ten) which can be presented as a whole to a larger audience or separately to a smaller audience.
