The students firstly went in and had their makeup done and put their costumes on. The mood of everyone was electric! The students seemed very positive that the performance would be a great success.

The performance started roughly after lunch and right from the word go, it was an amazing performance. The students had given it their best and had made Elsternwick Primary School very proud.

We asked him about his thoughts on performance day, his character and rehearsals

Do you think performance day will be enjoyable? And if so, why?

Yes, well, it will be fun and enjoyable.

Are rehearsals fun?

Yes.

What do you like like/dislike about them?

Because you get to see other people perform and it’s exciting.

Sultan – Cast 2:

Is you character like you?

We relate because he’s small, and I’m growing facial hair. So we are exactly the same! (sarcastic tone)

In this scene, Jasmine and Aladdin are about to be married when Jafar tries to intervene. With the help of Genie, he plans not only to become the new Sultan, but also the most powerful genie of all time. But not everything is as it seems…

So what would it be like to play Jafar in this years musical? We interviewed two students playing the character of Jafar to find out!

“It’s fun, big and it’s tiring.”

“Bad because he wants to overthrow the throne and has absolute power”.

What helps you get into character?
“To be energised”.

How do you remember your lines?
“I go over them a lot and read the script”.

———————————————————————————

 What is it like to play the role of Jafar?
“Tough because you have to do a different voice the whole time, but it is fun.”

Is Jafar a good or bad character?
“Bad, definately bad”.

“Putting on a low voice and to be able to change into different tones”.

How do you remember your lines?
“Just a lot of time and practice. But I don’t remember all of them”.
