Yesterday our Year 7 students were treated to a performance in French of “Parlez-vous Français?” by the Onatti theatre group. It told the story of Archie, an English student who finds himself in a French hospital following a skiing accident. Archie must cope using the French he has been learning in school and as you can imagine, there are lots of mishaps along the way!
Our students thoroughly enjoyed the performance and had the opportunity to participate in the play by offering translation support. One of our brave students even came to the front to take on a small acting role!
At the end of the show, students had the opportunity to ask the actors about their careers in theatre and their cultural experiences of living in France. Our students asked relevant questions that demonstrated their curiosity about other cultures and customs.
