Rap-unzel

Play review-

On Wednesday November the 12th actors from the N.Z Auckland playhouse came to CTK school and performed a play about the story Rapunzel, but they changed it into a rap. The actors were Jack, Jane and Ben.

When I walked into the hall I was astonished because there was a perfect background and you could see a tower that was so high I couldn’t even touch the top. When the show started it was boring at first but then when Prince Rupert started rapping I began to enjoy it. I was so excited when he  pointed at me and asked me what my favourite song was and I said  “About that bass” by Meghan Trainor. But the highlight was when Rapunzel and Prince Rupert kissed and everyone went “ewwww”.

I recommend this to all ages because it is funny and it is appropriate for children as well for adults.

 Yesterday on the 12th of November, a group named Auckland Playhouse came to Christ the King to perform a show called Rap-punzel. It was acted out by three people Jake, Jane and Ben. The name of the play was “A land far far away’s got talent” they presented it as if it was an X factor idol show.

The funniest thing was when Prince Rupee tried to sing, but he couldn’t and embarrassed himself in front of the whole audience and Rapunzel. The whole school laughed so loudly I thought there was going to be an earthquake. The most disgusting part was when Rapunzel and Prince Rupee kissed, it was so disgusting the audience screamed out “eww” or “yuck”.

The Auckland Playhouse came to school and we went to see the Rap-unzel story. They had 3 actors- Jane, Jake and Ben, and they played many roles. The story was like the X factor show where Simon cow was looking for talents. It was set in the far, far away land.

My favourite part was when Rupe’s pants fell down that was what you call real theatre comedy. The people in my class laughed and laughed until things got pretty serious and by that I mean kissing. Rapunzel kissed the prince and she also kissed the bad guy Simon cow, but at the end Simon cow was the good guy.

Seeing live theatre is amazing, instead of watching it on tv.  You see it in real life and real people are acting out their roles.

All Saints Day Liturgy

Nov 1 is All Saints Day, the day we commemorate all souls who have attained beatific vision in heaven.

A Catholic Prayer in Praise of the Saints.

How shining and splendid are your gifts, O Lord
which you give us for our eternal well-being
Your glory shines radiantly in your saints, O God
In the honour and noble victory of the martyrs.
The white-robed company follow you,
bright with their abundant faith;
They scorned the wicked words of those with this world's power.
For you they sustained fierce beatings, chains, and torments,
they were drained by cruel punishments.
They bore their holy witness to you
who were grounded deep within their hearts;
they were sustained by patience and constancy.
Endowed with your everlasting grace,
may we rejoice forever
with the martyrs in our bright fatherland.
O Christ, in your goodness,
grant to us the gracious heavenly realms of eternal life.
