Hints & tips
- This duologue is ideal for Initial exams – but can also be used at other levels.
- Either of the characters Ant and Bee can be male or female.
- The only prop needed in this duologue is something which looks like a mango smoothie (Plastic cup with some juice, a lid and a straw )
- The performers could be standing throughout
- Or you could use a table and chairs – then you could put the smoothie down on the table and move it about.
