We had our lunch quickly, and were getting ready to go to the Colfox play called the Return to the Forbidden Planet.

When we got into the secondary school it was like an airport terminal and guess what? Aliens greeted us!

We went through an airlock (a white tunnel, like in ET.) and sat at the back of the Drama hall where it was held.

It took a little while but I suppose we were a bit early, and while we were waiting we made some new friends and Pearl met another Pearl. (She was amazed because she thought she was only one of her kind.)

The play was Out of this world! It was very good. Colfox has pretty good actors in its school. We were stunned by the costumes, props, stage, even the lighting! I guess it was a first class play.

It ended at 3:00 with the captain getting his girl and we still had time left to admire the work by the year 7,8,9and 10s.

At the end of an alienistic watch we had to go home and tell our family and friends to get tickets.

We would be happy to see it again and again.
