1. Setting the (new) Scene
Pygmalion 2014

2. Create! You may either work alone or in partners.
Today you will re-create a scene from Pygmalion. You may choose to re-create a scene from act 1, 2, or 3.
The “scene” you choose should span about 4-5 pages of the play.

3. Here is the Twist! While re-creating this scene you must:
Put the characters in a completely new setting
Modernize the names
Modernize the language
Modernize the situation (not voice lessons– change it!)
But! Keep the integrity of what the play is all about! (3 characters; transformation)

4. Format Requirements You must:
Format your scene like the play. That means narration to set the scene, character names and what they say after, etc.
Basically, copy the format of the book
Example:
Narration is so much fun. Look, I set the scene! Wow.
Margie: don’t you love modernizing plays?
John: I sure do!
