Playscripts



This week we have been looking at play scripts. We would like you to take one section of a film or television programme. While you watch it, make notes about a conversation between two or more characters (dialogue) and how they speak and move (stage directions).

We would then like you to turn your notes into a short section of a play script. Please add your play script to the class blog.


For example, here is a script for a section of Toy Story.



The rubber shark pops up wearing Woody's cowboy hat.

SHARK: Look, I'm Woody. Howdy, howdy, howdy!

WOODY: (sarcastic) Ah-hah! Ah-hah-hah! (grabs the hat). Give me that! (Woody leaps out of the toy box)

BUZZ: Say there, Lizard and Stretchy Dog. Let me show you something. It looks as though I've been accepted into your culture.

(Woody looks up to see Buzz chatting with Rex and Slinky)

BUZZ: (continued) Your Chief, Andy, inscribed his name on me.

(Buzz puts his foot out so that Slinky and Rex can see the sole of his boot. The name "ANDY" is written on it in permanent marker).





SLINKY & REX: Wow!

  1. PLAY SCRIPT - THE JUNGLE BOOK

    Mowgli and Bagheera walk warily through the jungle.

    Buffalo snorts.

    MOWGLI: Whoa!

    Bagheera looks up and senses something.

    BAGHEERA: Down!

    Mowgli turns around.

    MOWGLI: What? Now we have to bow to the buffalo, too? Bagheera, I’m not taking one more step until you tell me…

    Shere Khan roars and leaps over Mowgli onto Bagheera. Mowgli screams and falls to the ground.

    Mowgli and the buffalos run.

    Shere Khan snarls at Bagheera and then attacks him. Both roar. Shere Khan stikes Bagheera on face. Bagheera falls to the ground.

    Shere Khan turns around and runs after Mowgli.

    BAGHEERA: Run, Mowgli!

    Shere Khan bellows as he collides with buffalo.

    Mowgli falls, grunting. He gets up and looks back, panting.

    Mowgli grunts as he runs and latches on to the horns of a buffalo.

    Shere Khan roars in anger as Mowgli gets away.

  4. A play script between two film characters:
    Harry, Ron and Hermione are discussing where Voldemort could have hid the third Horcrux:

    In the Griffin woods, past enchantments, in tent:

    Ron: Where do you think You-know-who's third Horcrux is?
    Harry: (desperate)Look maybe it could be in his father’s grave.
    Hermione: (sighing) Of course not. Harry!
    Ron and Harry: (together) What’s wrong with it?
    Hermione:(importantly) He killed his father because he was a Muggle. Do you think he would place such a precious thing in a dead Muggle’s grave? (Standing up)
    Ron: Oh right.
    Harry: (angrily) Have you got a better idea?
    Hermione: (pacing now) For a matter of fact, I have.
    Harry and Ron: (together again) You do!? (They grin catching each other's eyes)
    Hermione: It could be in his mother’s grave as she was a pure blood and was his family. It would make him feel connected to the magic world. ( bowing and sitting back down)
    Harry: It is like my idea.
    Hermione: ( snapping) You have a better idea.
    Harry: No. (not looking at Hermione)
    Ron: (softly) We’ll figure it out tomorrow after a good night’s sleep.Ok!
    (They agree, and head towards the bunk, already half asleep)

    Mildred:(scaredly)I got a styling brush stuck in it , Miss Hardbroom.


    Ethel:(shivering nervously)and I cut it off for her. She was really upset ,so I tried to shape it into a style for her,to neaten it up.


    Miss Hardbroom :Well ,let that be a lesson to you ,Mildred.Trying to do your hair in unsuitably frivolous styles. No good can ever come of all this preening and primping. I'm always warninig you girls,but do you ever listen ?My goodness,Miss Granite will have her work cut out with you in her class.


    Narrator:She turned away and dismissed the subject of Mildred's hair from her mind.
