Teatre galima ne tik mėgautis, bet ir mokytis

9 b ir 11 c klasių mokiniai, lydimi anglų kalbos mokytojų  T.B. ir L.M.,  mėgavosi Vilniaus universiteto teatre žiūrėdami R. L. Stevensono pjesę "Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde" (anglų kalba), kurią pastatė American Drama Group Europe. Tai nauja sėkmingo TNT kūrinio, prieš dešimtmetį gastroliavusio po Europą, versija, papildyta  dainomis ir  nauju moterišku personu  – detektyvą primenančia Abigail Utterson, kuri padeda  suprasti  gilesnes Stevensono šedevro temas. Pastatymą  sukūtė  Paulas Stebbingsas, kurio darbai buvo matomi visame pasaulyje ir pelnė daugybę apdovanojimų.

Trumpas Roberto Louiso Stevensono romanas yra klasikinės literatūros šedevras, kuris šiandien neprarado savo aktualumo. Tai ir siaubo istorija, ir moralinė pasaka, ir  trileris ar net  gotikinė komedija, o TNT versijoje – tragiška meilės istorija.

Mokiniai ne tik lavino kalbos įgūdžius ir kultūrinę kompetenciją, bet ir  apmąstė  gyvenimo vertybes.

"I really enjoyed the play ,"Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde’’ .The acting was great, and the performance was very engaging. Some scenes were a bit too scary for me, especially the balloon pop, but they made the play more exciting. Overall, I would definitely recommend it to my friends and family)" (V.G., 11c)

"I really enjoyed today’s performance of Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. It was my first time at the Vilnius University Theatre, and I was truly impressed. The actors’ performances were incredibly realistic, and what stood out to me the most was the actress’s singing – her voice was absolutely stunning and added so much depth and emotion to the story.’’ (E.J.., 11c)

"I just watched “Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde” at the theatre, and it was really exciting. The stage was dark and a little scary, which made the story feel spooky right from the beginning. The actor who played Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde did a great job. He didn’t need special effects — he changed his voice and the way he moved, and it made Hyde feel really creepy. The way the stage changed was also smart — they used lights and moving walls to show the different parts of Jekyll’s and Hyde’s lives." (E.D., 11c)

"Last week, I went to see the play ,,Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" with my class. The performance was really impressive and kept my attention the whole time. Especially I liked how well the actors got into their roles, they truly brought the characters to life. Another thing that stood out was their singing. There were many musical moments, and the actors sang beautifully, which made the play even more exciting." (J.T., 11c)
