GET A LIFE (Touring 2025/26)
Theme: Bullying; Cultivating a Healthy Mindset
Target Audience: GR. 1-7
Duration: 45 minutes
Sam and Carla, two highly successful adults, reflect on the primary school they once attended – the school that changed their lives forever. This is where they learned it is possible to actively build a life they want. To “Get A Life”.
The audience sees the two main characters being regularly bullied at school. We gain insight into the lives of all participants. The children are faced with peer pressure, self-esteem challenges and other external factors impacting on the way they experience their lives. We see Sam escape in “gaming”. This is until they buy a pizza from Mr. Mario.
He demonstrates that life is like a pizza. You decide how big or small you cut your pieces (learner’s level of interest) AND what toppings (values and attitudes) you sprinkle on to create a tasty slice of life (outcome). Best toppings include honesty, respect (for self and others), responsibility, positivity, friendship and accountability … all the good-old -fashioned values.
“Get A Life” is full of action and packed with intelligent humour. To ensure that EVERYONE in the audience understands the messages, age-appropriate examples are offered throughout the show. The actors adapt to the audience. A feast of fun and learning awaits.

See how all the interesting characters work together to motivate a socially insecure Allison to eventually compete against the mean Magda Molotov from Russia in the boxing ring. The atmosphere in the hall is electric!
With an uncomplicated and easy to follow storyline, the production looks at working towards acceptance on a social level, trying new things to participate in (inside and outside of school), and moving forward in one’s life by setting goals and plans. It might be “small” or short term goals but the principles for achieving bigger dreams are the same. The script fully draws both senior and junior primary learners into the show through active participation, the use of elaborate sets, music and dance.
