Is the Shoutmix Chat coming up? If yes, is there a need to discuss about the skit on chat? If yes, what time are we doing it tomorrow? (As of Tuesday, 28/7/09)~Javier

I have put it up. Just refer to the navigation. ~Alex

Just for our information, by when must we be sure with our words and memorise the whole skit? ~Javier

Hi Javier, if you look at the announcements page, Mdm Teo mentioned that we should start memorising our script starting now (announced on 19/6/2009). Memorise it ASAP. It would be good that way. ~Alex

I think we addressed this question before, but just to make sure, what is the transition from scene 1 to 2? I remember that we said something about the music (if there is any for that part) stopping and M and F freezing, then moving backstage in which C comes out. Is this true? I ask this because we have not yet typed down the transition from scene 1 to 2 yet, or at least I have not seen it. Oh, and who is continuing with scene 2?-sorry for being too inquisitive(can't help it!)- ~Shannon

I think anyone can do it. ~Alex

Should Charles faint and revive before he dies? Or should he go into a coma, etc.? Can someone please confirm? ~Cheri

What do you mean? Why should Charles "faint and revive"? I mean, if he faints, just let him die, why make it so troublesome? ~Alex

I think we need to decide on something, that is the tone of the mother's and her friend's voices. They all sound different across the scenes. Should they be speaking in Singlish? (I know I'm so fussy!) ~Cheri

I'm addressing Cheri's query. I think that it depends on the character, and his or her trait. For example, a doctor might use little or no Singlish, while Charles or his mother might ocassionally use some. However, I think that we might not want to use too much, as it might be a bit distracting and sometimes makes it harder to comprehend.~Shannon

Hi, but Hari just talked about this in the Suggestion Page. Yes, we must include Singlish for the characters Charles, M, F, and maybe the doctor. But the man and the accomplice cannot speak in Singlish as they need to sound professional. You can visit the Suggestion Page. ~Alex

No Singlish for Alex and me. ~ Hari

Mdm Teo: I'm concerned about the dying part. Now in Singapore, we have 5 cases of Influenza A and the Ministry of Health has assured us that the symptoms are mild and there is no need to panic. If in our skit, we have people who die of Influenza Z...I don't feel comfortable with the idea. What do you think? Can Charles recover?

In Scene 3, I wonder why should the mother not tell Charles that he is diagnosed with Influenza Z H2N2. In the end, Charles should still know about his Influenza. It would not make sense if he is not aware of it throughout the whole skit. ~ Javier

It would have a big impact on Charles emotionally or mentally if he knew that he had Influenza Z (H2N2), I mean, normal school boys like him would not be able to cope with the pressure of it. It would be better to keep him in the dark. ~Alex
