Skits

There are many scenes in the book that would be great to make skits out of, but these three are the ones I think are the best.

1. When Pip meets Miss Havisham for the first time, aswell as Estella. The reason is because it was so weird and awkward the way Miss Havisham was to Pip. The main characters would only be Pip, Estella, and Havisham. The importance of this event is how Pip started off, before great expectations came.

2. Another good event would be when Miss Havisham catches on fire, and Pip saves her. This isn't really important, except for the fact that Pip saved her, when she was so cruel to him before. However, this would be fun to watch.

3. The scene that I think is important is when Pip runs into somebody on the staircase. Later, he learns that the person was the convict that he ran into when he was a kid, or Abel Magwitch. This is important because Pip learns who his benefactor is, with a coincidence. The characters would be Magwitch and Pip.

  1. I like your second skit idea the best. I also put that down as a possibility in my blog. I don't know if we could get a fire place in class, but we could probably just push someone into an oven or pour gasoline on them and then light a match.
