Montana Jones and the Gymnasium of Doom

The character MONTANA can be described as...

• scared and shy

• mysterious and evil

• adventurous and humorous

• witty and sarcastic

The playwright used the characters CHRIS and CODY to

• Emphasize how some kids in modern times are obsessed with their devices/phones

• Make fun of adults who don't understand technology

• Distract the audience from the play's main conflict

Which of the following stage directions from the play show ways the stage could be set up for this play?

• Backdrops and set pieces might be a nice touch to indicate the different locations. However, a blank stage, strategically placed chairs, and the audience's imagination could serve just as well.

• Montana Jones enters. He is a rugged explorer, wearing a fedora, and a leathery jacket. He might be covered in spider webs

• Jumping in exaggerated slow motion, Montana pulls Jamie and Dwayne off to the side.

• Mr. Shale, the Science Teacher, enters. Cody and Chris (and perhaps other students) bring in chairs and take their seats.

In the play, the frisbee that Dwayne and Jamie talk about at the beginning of the play is important because

• It is used to scare off the spider monsters

• It appears again in the end to show that they can still have fun, even though they aren't little kids anymore

• It appears in every scene to stir emotion from the audience
