    they stayed in character throughout the whole show. However‚ I found it hard to understand what the actors were saying quite often. I think some of the cast could have worked on enunciation‚ diction‚ and volume a little bit more. Nevertheless‚ their acting was right on and they made their characters believable.

    READING TO SPEAK: INTEGRATING ORAL COMMUNICATION SKILLS. The article I chose deals about the lack of practice in speaking skill in language teaching‚ and although it refers to Chinese schools‚ I found it relevant because the situations it refers to are very similar to the ones we face in most of the schools in our country.

    never know who anyone really is and what anyone is capable of. Even the mom‚ Ms. Miller turned the other way when Sister Aloysius told her she thinks Father was doing some bad stuff with her kid. The main strength of this performance to me was the acting‚ however Sister James acted a little to happy‚ and tried too much in her performances. The weakness of this performance was the stage setup and its limited props. Father Flynn was to loud and over the top as if he was screaming at the audience. It
