GOOD LUCK ☺☺☺ Winnie the Pooh Interpretive Reading for Audition In order to prepare for your audition, read through the following characters’ dialogues and practice how you can bring each character to life through a non- memorized, reading performance. Reading #1: RABBIT: Order! Order please! Now I say Tigger's getting so bouncy nowadays that it's time we taught him a lesson. No matter how much we like him! PIGLET: .... he just bounces too much. GOPHER: Er, excuse me Rabbit, but perhaps if we could think of a way of an unbouncing Tigger, it would be a very good idea. ha? RABBIT: Exactly! Just what I ... What do you feel Pooh? PIGLET: Pooh! Haven't you been listening to what Rabbit's been saying? POOH: I listened, but then I had a small piece of fluff in my ear. Could you say it again, please Rabbit? RABBIT: Well, where should I start from? POOH: From the moment the fluff got in my ear. RABBIT: When was that? POOH: I don't know, I couldn't hear properly. GOPHER: Pooh, we were just trying to think of a way to get the bounce out of Tigger. RABBIT: Aha, I've got a splendid idea! Now listen! We'll take Tigger for a long exploration some place where he's never been, and we lose him there. POOH: Lose him? RABBIT: Oh we'll find him again next morning, and mark my words, he'll be a humble Tigger. A small and sad Tigger. And "oh Rabbit am I glad to see you" Tigger. And it'll take the bounces out of him. That's why. Now all in favor say " Aye " Reading #2: NARRATOR #1: Like most small boys Christopher Robin has toy animals to play with, and they all live together in a wonderful world of make-belief. But his best friend is a bear called Winnie the Pooh or Pooh for short. Now Pooh had some very unusual adventures and they all happened right here in the Hundred Acre Wood. Winnie the Pooh lived in this enchanted forest. Now when Pooh heard his Pooh-coo clock he knew it was time for something, but he was a bear of very little brain, so when he thought he thought in the most thoughtful way he could think.

A. Milne wrote two books about a bear named Winnie-the-Pooh and his friends. The former was called simply Winnie- the-Pooh (WP) and was published in 1926, and the second, The House at Pooh Corner (HPC), was published in 1928. The books contain a collection of stories that the author used to tell to his son before he went to bed in the evening and they came to be counted among the most widely known children‟s stories in literary history. Many consider the books about Winnie-the-Pooh some of the greatest literary works ever written for children. They have been lined up and compared with such classic masterpieces as Alice in Wonderland (1865) by Lewis Carroll and The Wind in the Willows (1908) by Kenneth Graham. How Milne uses poetry and prose together in his stories has earned him a place next to some of the great poets, such as E. Nesbit, Walter de la Mare and Robert Louis Stevenson (Greene). In my view, the author‟s basic purpose with writing the books was to make children, his son in particular, happy, and to give them a chance to enter an “enchanted place” (HPC 508). The books were not written to be a means of education or to be the source of constant in-depth analysis of over-zealous critics.

  • Bloomington Voters Set New Turnout Record
    December 2018 Page 3 Page 6 Bloomington voters set new turnout record ore than 22 percent of Bloomington voters cast early ballots by mail or in person at Civic Plaza this year. That’s more than double the early voter turnout of 2014, the last non-presidential election year. This increase in early Page 7 voting may mean dividing resources differently in upcoming elections with more staff available during early Mvoting as opposed to on Election Day, according to City Clerk Janet Lewis. “If people are more likely to take advantage of early voting, then we need to make sure we provide the resources for that opportunity so everyone has a positive voting experience in Bloomington,” said Lewis. “I’m really grateful for all the staff who supported the election process this year.” Absentee voting by mail and in person starts 46 days before the election and direct balloting, where voters place ballots directly into the ballot counter, starts seven days before the election. The city’s overall midterm voter turnout set a record, too, with 45,331 voters.

MILNE’S: Theatre Winnie-the-Pooh CPAC The Story A very special Friend-and-Relation, Christopher Robin tells the story of a Christmas Eve very long ago (about last year) when Eeyore, everyone’s favorite old gray donkey, was absolutely miserable because he had lost his tail. Of course, A.A. Milne’s classic characters Pooh and Piglet set out to find the tail and meet other classic residents of the 100 Acre Wood along the way!

  • Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day
    Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day Winnie the Pooh, or “Pooh” for short, lived with his friends in the Hundred Acre Wood. One very windy day, Pooh went to visit his thinking spot. As Pooh sat there, trying hard to think of something, his friend, Gopher, suddenly appeared. “Say, Pooh, if I were you, I’d think about skedaddlin’s out of here. It’s Windsday, see?” Pooh thought that sounded like a lot of fun. “Then I think I shall wish everyone a happy Windsday. And I will begin with my dear friend, Piglet.” The wind was blowing very hard as Pooh neared Piglet’s house. “Happy Windsday, Piglet. I see you’re sweeping leaves.” “Yes, Pooh. But it’s hard. This is a very unfriendly wind.” Just then, a big gust blew Piglet up into the air. Pooh watched in surprise. “Where are you going, Piglet?” “I don’t know, Pooh. Oh, dear!” Pooh tried to help, but when he grabbed Piglet’s sweater, it began to unravel! Piglet flew like a kite over the countryside, with Pooh dragging behind. The two went right through Eeyore’s house and Rabbit’s carrot patch. Then with the strongest wind of all, Piglet and Pooh were blown right up to Owl’s house in a tall tree. “Pooh! Piglet! This is a special treat! I so rarely get visitors up here. Do come in.” Owl opened his window and in blew Pooh and Piglet. The wind blew harder and harder until finally Owl’s tree, along with his house, crashed to the ground.

  • Winnie the Pooh in the Classroom
    Winnie the Pooh In the Classroom ENG-3993 Elisabeth M. Knudsen Master’s Thesis in English and Education Faculty of Humanities, Social Sciences and Education University of Tromsø Spring 2012 Acknowledgement First, I have to thank my friend, Jon, for giving me the idea to write about Winnie the Pooh in the first place. Writing a master’s thesis seemed to me to be an impossible task without a topic that really interested me, and with his idea, I got exactly that. So thank you! Secondly, this process has been a long and at times very tiring one, and I would not have had nearly as much drive and positive progress without Linn by my side from early morning until late night. I have had a lot of fun Linn! At times Steffen has also joined us, and without him, I might never have gotten some of my questions answered. Thank you both for your splendid company! There would be no way of writing this master’s thesis without the help of my wonderful supervisors, Gerd Bjørhovde and Ruben Moi. Thank you both, for your encouragement, constructive criticism, and kind words, I greatly appreciate your guidance. This master’s thesis would not have been finished without you and your flexibility concerning meetings and feedback. Last, but not least, to all the other students from the PPU class of 2010-2011, Elisabeth especially, and all my other friends: Thank you so much for encouraging me when I needed reassurance. And I have needed reassurance that this was doable more than once.
