English Theatre "Spooked" (2A/E+, 3ABCD)



Am Montag, den 23.2.2015 besuchten die 2A (E+/DLP) und 3ABCD das Theaterstück „Spooked“ (Sean Aita) des Vienna’s English Theatre (school tours) - eine moderne Adaptation von „The Canterville Ghost“, in der sich Oscar Wildes berühmtes Gespenst im Hier und Jetzt behaupten muss. Gar nicht so einfach, wenn man als „echter“ Geist mit Computerspielen, Smartphones… um die Aufmerksamkeit der Jugendlichen, die man erschrecken möchte, konkurrieren muss!

Unsere SchülerInnen nützten die Gelegenheit, noch vor Beginn des Stücks mit den SchauspielerInnen ungezwungen über das Stück zu plaudern, und ein paar besonders mutige SchülerInnen eroberten sogar eine kleine Szene lang die Bühne. 


Ein paar Eindrücke:

I really, really liked the play - actually I loved it. It was very interesting although I already knew the ending. I liked all the actors and actresses but I think “Virginia” was the best. Her English was fluent and her acting was fabulous. I thought she was ‘real’. I think Washington was really funny because he was so addicted to his computer games. It was fun to watch Sir Simon trying to shock Washington, who wasn’t afraid at all.

In my opinion the play was acted out very well. I liked the portraits that were alive and the ghost whose attempts at scaring people were pretty amusing. At first I didn’t like Mrs Otis because of her plans of tearing down Canterville Hall but then she decided to sell it back to Lucretia Otis and I started liking her, too. I loved the scene in which Sir Simon tries to scare Washington. I think it was easy to get the message of this play.
