Written for a teenage audience.

The Play. Cristina and some of her friends have decided to go on their first holiday together. But they can't decide where they want to go or what they want to do. Cristina decides to take the initiative and research the possibilities. For many holiday ideas there is no better place than your local travel agent, so Cristina heads straight there. "¡Buen viaje!" looks like any normal Spanish travel agency, there are brochures, posters and a helpful male assistant called Sergio; but appearances can be deceptive. What Cristina doesn't realise is that this travel agent offers a special and unique kind of service. When she explains to the assistant that she is unsure about which type of holiday to choose, she is offered a ticket and asked to exit through the black cloth. Cristina is about to discover that this is no ordinary travel agency. Who is it aimed at? Abilities can differ from school to school, but this play has been pitched and translated for Year 9 and 10's and/or students who have been learning Spanish for two years or more. With previous performances many schools have brought in Year 8's and felt that they have enjoyed the plays and gained a lot from them. Your year 11's will also gain a great deal from this play and should not miss out on a valuable experience. What topics are included? All our plays are written to tie in vocabulary and topics covered in KS3 and GCSE. Some topics included in this play are: Holidays Travel Describing someone Holiday activities Times Dates Food Parts of the body Describing yourself Plus More Details This play, as with all our language plays, is performed by two actors, one male and one female. The set-up takes 30 minutes. The play lasts 50 minutes. Our main requirement is that all the students watching can see the performance, so where possible we prefer to perform on your stage or in a studio with raised seating. If you do not have a stage and there will be a large audience we ask that some of them sit on the floor. How do I book this play for my school?
