A Nice Cup Of England- The play takes place in the 21st century , the title of the play is : A Nice Cup Of England and it takes place in England. 1)There is the Queen of England , She is representative of England and she is very important for English people . 2)There are some very English people : a girl and a boy who wear English clothes (a hat , a tie , a skirt , an umbrella …) 3)Winston Churchill : he refers to the History of England. 4)There are two doctors and a patient who is very ill. 5)and there is also the dog Spot
 My favorite scene is when the doctors took off the intestine of the patient and when the actor gave chocolate candies to the spectators .
 The play is very funny and nice. It is representative of British habits and of British humour.

A Nice Cup of England

The actor is Glyn Jones. The play was performed in the meeting room. There was Queen Elisabeth. There was a dog, his name was Spot. And he bit Elisabeth and a girl. First, Glyn Jones is wearing pyjamas, then he is putting a hat on. He is a great actor, he is fifty seven years old. He is British but he lives in France. My favourite scene was when Glyn Jones was a doctor, and he operated a patient. It was a good play.The play was very funny.

• At the beginning, Glyn Jones was wearing blue pyjamas. Afterwards he was wearing a waistcoat, trousers and brown shoes. • The Queen was wearing a checked skirt and a white jacket. • The English man was wearing a black jacket, a black hat, a tie and he was having an umbrella. • The English woman was wearing a purple shirt, a navy blue skirt and a white and black hat. She was having a baby, a feather duster and a cup. • Johnny was being sick : a problem of the intestine. • Sylvester was being the assistant of the doctor. He was wearing a white coat. • Winston Churchill was the character of a portrait. He was speaking and singing too. There were six pupils who were playing with the professional actor.

Our favorite scene was the meal. The man and the woman didn’t eat. The cook was very bad. He cooked snails, a frog and a chicken. They were living beings. The actor sang and danced “the dance of the chicken” with the man and the woman. He had two corkscrews. They were two women who danced with him.

This play is interesting because it represents English symbols and it’s interesting for French pupils. In conclusion, we think it was funny and great.

The play is interesting because it shows British traditions. The play was very funny and crazy !

 On Monday 14th of October we saw the play : A nice cup of England at Collège La Platière ! The main character is Smithers and he was wearing a tie, a hat, shoes and socks. He is weird. Winston Churchill is present with the actor but he is not real, he is a portrait, he is talkative and he wants people to talk about him. The author who has written the play is Glyn Jones.

The other characters in the play are : Queen Elizabeth II, an English man (Mr. VeryEnglish) with his English wife : a lady (Mrs.VeryEnglish), a waiter, Johnny Hallyday, an assistant of the doctor and the doctor.

The English lady was wearing a jacket, a hat, a skirt, a handbag and she had a baby , a dog, a duster, a saucer and a cup of tea. Our favorite scene is when the actor spat on the plate to clean it. We think it’s great because it’s funny, very representative of English humour and there were many English symbols.
