if im honest, when i first got this script in drama i didnt like it....... but its grown on me a lot and im playing maureen but for the life of me i can't do a liverpudlian accent and i going sweedish :S
me and two others from my drama class are doing the first act of this play for our trialogue...i'm playing bernie XD Its a great play, very fun to act out.
This is a great version of it too, the guy playing eddie is brillant!
I played Billy in a College production 15 yrs ago. Found it a cool part, most of the comedy rests on your shoulders.... its a challenge to get the timing just right, but when you do its like surfing a wave.
Love this play, very fond memories of snogging the hottest girl in my class during the end scene lol.
we done stags and hens for my gcse drama exam, i played bernie but we didn't have enough men so we just had to do the ladies, infact we only had one boy in our drama class and he played peter
playing bernie was great, i had some fantastic one liners! :D
anyone whos playing bernie will have a lot of fun!
Hey... i played billyy.. its an easy part really... everything people say.. u arent rlly sure of what the bloodyhell there tlking about.. but u pretend u do.. u try to fit in.. but ur a typical geek.. i made it so it only felt i was there because they felt sorry for me.. but tried my best to fit in.. its a great show.. hope this helped.. besta luck with ya gcse
Billy is stupid. I am doing National Diploma Acting in College, and we are doing this play now. Billy is not really a follower or want to be like others, he is more of a childish man, who still lives with his mother, if Billy were real he would be short, but if you are tall or medium, you got to feel small. You are always not paying attention and you are in your own world. Billy also seems to be the youngest character since he is most immature and still lives with his mother.
OMG how patronising/mean/arrogant does everyone have to be? The sound has broken on my comp so I can't tell whether this production is terrible or excellent, but still, guys, be nice!!
I'm doing Stags and Hens for my final piece too (I play Carol and Robbie) but it doesn't mean I think everyone else's is AWFUL!
Nope we only did it for 1 day. The youth theatre was split in half over the week-end. 20 did Kes. 10 of us did Stags. And anyway we couldn't win one...were youth
I'm doing this for GCSE too and i't in about 3 weeks until the exam :/ Any advice on how to play both Carol and Robbie?
