The letters game (10 points)
Pick one of the options below and write down as many words can connected with that musical which start with the letters given. If you use a person then it can be either their first name or surname. Places should be the first letter as should song titles. General words which are not specifically related to the musical are not allowed. You need to list 10 words in total for 10 marks but please only pick one option (although you can list words for all letters given). If this is unclear please let me know and I'll try and explain it better! If you want to give more than 10 words just in case that's fine but this part of the exam is only worth 10 points.
For example, if I chose "Robin, Prince of Sherwood" and the letter was "T" I could have Friar Tuck, The Wholey Bible, The Sheriff of Nottingham etc.
Option 1) "West Side Story" - Letters W and S
Option 2) "Robin, Prince of Sherwood" - Letters R, P and S
Option 3) "South Pacific" - Letters S and P
Option 4) "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" - Letters J, T and D.

Are you a couple of points short of the maximum and want to finish this course with a nice round 300 points? Well if this is the case here is your chance to get to the magical full marks. Write me another short essay from the options given above and I will count this as worth anything up to 10 marks. If you have written an essay for your exam you must answer some of the other questions for these bonus marks, do not just repeat yourself as this is worth nothing. Minimum of 150 words if you wish to get any points. I'll know how many more you need!
