Great Expectations: Skit Prep - Week 17

The first scene that I think would make for a good skit is when Abel Magwitch and Compeyson are fighting in the marsh. This is one of the more action filled scenes in the book, and I think it would make for a very dramatic and exciting skit.

The second scene that I'm considering is when Miss Havisham falls into the fireplace and ignites into flames and Pip runs in and burns his hands trying to save her. This also would be a very exciting scene because it'd be cool to light someone on fire, and I don't mind burning my hands too much.

The final scene that I would like to preform in class is when Mrs. Joe goes insane when Orlick insults her and then Mr. Joe begins to fight with Orlick. Like the first two, this skit would be very action packed, and I feel like I could efficiently portray Mrs. Joe's insanity through my spectacular acting expertise.
