mia: whats going on 

(by now the characters are in a small semi circle around her and in synchronised time they pick up black sheets to symbolise walls trapping her)

Mia falls to the floor overwhelmed and scared screaming out no and help 

bella theresa kelsea and georgia all hypnotise her

Scene 1 

Characters

Mom

Daughter

Mum: alright Mia its time to hop into bed its nearly 8 o clock

Mia: please mummy cant I stay up just a little bit longer

Mum: no honey not tonight into bed and ill tuck you in 

Mia: alright (gets up of the floor from her dolls and gets into her bed)

Mum: (kisses Mia on the forehead and pulls up the blankets) good night baby sweet dreams 

(mias mum goes to leave the room and turn out the lights)

mia: no mummy leave the lights on the monsters will come and get me 

mum: oh Mia its all in your head they aren’t real just try to get some sleep

(lights go out and the transaction into the dark monster world)

lesson 3

what the world should look like

• dark 
• green lighting 
• distorted time
• haunted laughing and echoing sounds in the background
• clowns and masks and monsters

plot

• when the mum tuck's her into bed and turns of the light she says “goodnight sweetie have sweet dreams” when the mum leaves the room the girls bed starts to spin round as she is entering the dream world.
• in the dreamworld she is comforted my her childhood fears and is looking for a way to overcome them and get back.
• she meets her old imaginary friend that she was told to forget about as she was getting to old and he helps her get back to reality 

she should meet all of her fears in the world and see that they are all enlarged because its in her mind and they are exaggerated 

when Sophie gets of her bed the walls all around her come closer and trap her she screams and falls to the ground (three people holding black sheets) she kneels down and she says a paragraph or so on being trapped in societies expectations 

kelseas idea- walls coming in

georgias idea- mum tucks her in 

sabrinas idea - sweet dreams 

my idea- imaginary friend as its a common thing tht young children have and also in the story i wanted the to be one here (good guy) and so the role of the old imaginary friend seemed to fit in with the unrealism and childhood of the story.

plot we all decided on and contributed to different parts of it 

lesson 2

our play will be more a nightmare world then a dream, as the girl in the story sees all her fears enhanced and out to get her.

how to enter the dream world :

• mum turns lights out 
• two people spin the bed around (my idea)
• flashing lights (my idea)
• eery haunting music (my idea)
• clock time changes (kelseas idea)

what should happen in the dream world (my ideas)

• nightmare world
• childhood fears come to life
• little problems turn into monsters
• societies expectations reflected on children effecting them

childhood fears/monsters

• getting lost (sabrinas idea)
• being pretty
• doing things that society thinks you shouldnt
