Day Two - Acting Challenge - Awaken the Christmas Dragon
Dear Festive Performer,
Welcome to Day 2 of your Acting Advent Calendar!
Today’s challenge will take you on a magical adventure inspired by the movie The Christmas Dragon.
Don’t worry—this dragon doesn’t eat humans or gingerbread men, unlike our mischievous dragon friend!
Scenario: You are a young adventurer in a magical world where Christmas magic has been lost. You’ve discovered an ancient dragon who holds the key to restoring joy and wonder to the world. However, the dragon is under a sleeping spell, and the only way to wake it is by performing a special ritual and ask him to awaken.
Character Reaction: React to finding the dragon for the first time and show how your character feels when they realise the fate of Christmas depends on them.
Performance: Create some movements with your hands to awaken the dragon and then deliver this line: With light in our hearts and hope in our hands, awaken, great dragon, to restore this land!

Intro: Start with a festive greeting and introduce yourself by name and age. Mention that this is for Day 2 of the Christmas Acting Challenge
