Lark Takes a Bow

Lark Takes a Bow — page 5 — with my feet wide apart and raised my arms Then I wiggled my fingers and swayed my arms from side to side Like this But there’s nothing in the script about a breeze he said You’re an actor You’re supposed to use your imagination and pretend big things You should listen to me After all I’m older You are not much older Twins Lark we’re twins And you’re only older by ten minutes You should still listen to me because it’s a good idea Connor folded his arms Okay I can wave my hands around and pretend there’s a breeze But I need a break Let’s practice your part 4

Lark Takes a Bow — page 6 — I was practicing all last night in bed I know said Connor I have the bunk underneath yours And you’re loud even when you’re trying to be quiet 5

Lark Takes a Bow — page 7 — I decided to ignore what he said and to be patient because I’m a very good big sister I know I am So does Connor because I tell him that all the time Let’s take it from the top he said That was the same thing Mr Folopoulos the play director said when he started a rehearsal It means we have to start at the first lines of the play I clapped my hands Wow You sound just like a real director Connor looked happy when I said that See what I mean about being a very good big sister Let’s start at the part where Alice is chasing the White Rabbit Okay I said You pretend to be Alice 6

Lark Takes a Bow — page 8 — He nodded Oh flower did you see a White Rabbit I did I pretended my arms were leaves and waved them excitedly Connor frowned Lark you’re a flower They’re soft so you should be too You should whisper your line instead of shouting it And I don’t think you should wave your arms so much You look like you’re in a hurricane or something Hmm he had a good point Okay I won’t wave my arms so much but I have to be loud If I’m not the audience won’t hear me Yes they will You are very loud even when you’re trying to be quiet Connor See Very loud 7
