THEATRE PLAY

- NARRATOR: We know a lot about Phileas Fogg and Passepartout and the famous bet and how they finally win, but we do not nothing about the big decision Passepartout did when he was younger and all the consequences that it had.

(The narrator leaves and we can see Phileas and Passepartout sitting down and moving like they are on a train)

-PHILEAS: Passepartout, you look sad, what´s the matter?

-PASSEPARTOUT: Oh, Mr. Fogg, I was remembering my own travel to London from my native country.

-PHILEAS: You never told me anything about it, maybe if you share it with me that make you feel better. Don´t you think?

-PASSEPARTOUT: I can try, Mr. Fogg. Thank you.

(Now, while Passepartout is speaking, another boy enters the scene in front of them and acts out what Passepartout is saying)

-PASSEPARTOUT: When I was little, my family was so poor I had to work hard to earn money. One time my father came to me and said

-LITTLE PASSEPARTOUT: But, Sir, if I leave, what will happen with you all? I am going to miss you.

-FATHER: You must be brave, you are nearly a man. Someday you will be rich and you can come back and visit us, will you?

-PASSEPARTOUT: So, with great sadness, I left my family and I started my journey. (Now, little Passepartout is going to mimic everything) First, I took a bus to the station; the bus was so full I had to hang myself to the side so I would not fall. Secondly I took a train to the port and I had to stay on my feet for nearly 3 hours. Finally, when I reached the port I took a boat and had to sleep between two families who treat me really well.

-PHILEAS: Oh, my!! What a terrible journey!

-PASSEPARTOUT: Indeed, Mr. Fogg. But it turn out to be really worth it.

-PHILEAS: Really?

-PASSEPARTOUT: Although I missed my family I know they are always with me. Moreover, I met a lot of people and I went through many adventures. Like the time when...
