The obvious thing to do with this play is to read it as a text,
just as you would if it were a short story or a novel. But it holds
other possibilities as well. It could be read aloud, with four
learners taking the different roles while the rest of the class
follow along in their books as the audience, or the class could be
divided into groups of four to do the play reading in groups so
that everyone gets a chance to read aloud. It could even be staged,
with auditions to choose the best cast, who will learn their parts
by heart and perform for a wider audience than their classmates,
with costumes and props on a set, just as the playwright intended.
The play could also be the source of other activities in the
classroom such as improvisation, role play and writing. Drama
offers the possibility of enjoyment along with a growth in empathy,
teamwork and language skills. We hope that this play will serve you
in all those ways.
