Some opinions on "Frankenstein-Laugh at your Fears"

I would like to share with my fellow teachers some of the opinions of the 2nd High Advanced students after watching the play. Aren´t they cute?

First, I really enjoyed the play, I laughed a lot and it was very amusing. It seems to me that the central objective was to entertain the children in order to they didn't get bored and to teach something to them.At first, I didn't like the idea of a "continuation" of the Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. I thought that it'd better to see the "real" story that preservs the original spirit of Shelley. But, in my opinion the continuation was a kind of an infantile version of the original that was done to "catch" some of the basic "teachings" that the writer wanted to put in her story and more that Shelley didn't mentioned like "laugh at your fears".The songs were excellent. My favourite was "The secret to life", I really like the rhythm!That was only my opinion

Well, I think that the play was excellent. I liked it very much (I love comedies!) and I enjoyed the huge difference between this story and the original one; this one is like a parody because it's more modern... with Igor falling in love of Miss Blotcher, and the coquette Elizabeth, the mistery of the word "laboratory" (the strange and strong sound), the apparition of Homero Simpson!! And the salesman of body parts.Also I liked all the songs. The best one for me was the last one: laugh at your fears, with the monster singing!

The play was fantastic! I'd really enjoy it. The songs (laugh at your fears, body parts)and the characters (Igor, Dr.Frankenstein, Ema, Frankenstein -the monster-, Miss Blotcher, etc.)were awesome.
