"A Christmas Carol" performed by one actor only


The 18th of December was a day full of joy for the students of T4 (of Hofstad Lyceum). They have done a lot of hard work to make this day a special day. Students of the Penta College and the WAVE came to our school together with their teachers. But they weren't the only people present there. There also were people from the Europees Platform, British Council and of the STET (Stichting the English Theatre). They are very important to our school, because the Europees Platform is the Dutch Government's organization who make rules for TTO (CLIL) school and they decide whether such a bilingual school becomes a specified TTO school or not. The British Council has sponsored our school for other joint projects in school already and the STET has brought English theatre to our school. In this case they had brought an English actor called Ashley Ramsden, to our school to perform the play "A Christmas Carol" which was written by the famous writer Charles Dickens for approximately 150 people, of which the majority were teenagers. It wasn't an ordinary play, because he played all of the 25 character in "A Christmas Carol". Everyone enjoyed looking at the performance. Unfortunately everything has an ending. By guest writer Darlyne (15), student of Hofstad Lyceum
