Le 22 février 2011, le Collège la Platière a reçu un comédien anglais qui est venu donner un spectacle pour les élèves de 4ème et de 3ème.

London Story by Glyn Jones

This is a one man show in English.

Commentaires de Nathanaël et Pauline :

– Glyn Jones played different parts : the sergeant : Chris Thomas Pudding, the colonel : Custard, the milkman, the road-sweeper, the postman and the doctor.
Some pupils played on stage :
Dylan was Jimmy.
Adeline played the queen.
Djessym played the part of Lord Mayor.
Thibault and alexis played the Queen’s guards.
Laura played Daisy.

In the first scene, Glyn Jones, the bobby had to direct the traffic.
Sergeant Chris Thomas Pudding hit Jimmy in the head.
There is an accident and the doctors forgot the injured person.

In the next scene, 2 queen’s guards learnt their job.
They were not allowed to move but they danced when colonel Custard turned around.
The milkman fed the queen’s guards and Rogue, the Road-sweeper washed him.
In the last scene, the IRA terrorists made a bomb explode.
The Queen payed tribute to her guards, to their bravery and dedication with the Knighting ceremony.

– Hello,

It’s my opinion about the play.

The play was very funny because local stars were playing.
Dylan played the part of Jimmy, Adeline played the part of the Queen, Laura played the part of Daisy, Djessym played the part of the Lord Mayor of London and Alexis and Thibault played the part of the Queen’s guards.
We heard Big Ben’s chime*, the national anthem and London’s noises.
We saw the British flag, costumes of a bobby, of the Queen’s guards and
puppets*.
Glyn Jones played many parts : Sergeant Chris Thomas Pudding, the milkman, co
lonel Custard, the postman, the road sweeper and the doctor.
We have laughed so much.
