Food is very important in our life but some people ignore the fact that it is very important to keep food clean in order not to be contaminated. Food poisoning is common and sometimes it can be deadly illness. Typical symptoms include nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramping, and diarrhea that occur suddenly after consuming a contaminated food or drink. One of my students will hold a workshop about food Poisoning inside the school. one of them will do it outside the school for some housewives. This workshop was aimed specificlly for housewives but we decided also to do for student inside the school.
This is a short play that my students are going to perform one day next week in Arabic as well as in English.
The first scene
In the middle of the room, there is a table. On this table there is a big plate full of different kind of food. Suddenly Shaiyma enters the room and she goes ahead to the table.
Shaiyma says: "I am hungry, I can not wait anymore". Suddenly she looks at the plate on the table.
Shaiyma say: "thank God. How lucky I am. The food is calling me. Wait for me I am coming".
At this time her sister Fatma enters the room. She sees her sister Shaiyma is trying to eat from the uncovered plate and she shouted at her.
Fatma: "Shaiyma stop, do not eat from this plate."
Shaiyma, confused and angry:" You scared me. What's wrong with you? I am hungry".
Fatma: "but this food is uncovered"
Shaiyma: "covered or uncovered. I don't care about it. The most important thing is that I am hungry.
Fatma: " but if you eat this food you will get sick"
Shaiyma: " Shut up. I know that you want to eat it by yourself".
Fatma: " No, my sister. I am afraid that you will get sick from this uncovered food. You do not know how many germs are there on it . I am sure there were many flies land on it".
Shaiyma: " I don't believe you and I will eat from this plate".
Shaiyma starts eating from the plate and her sister tries to stop her but she couldn't.
Shaiyma: " What a delicious food. Look at me. I am well. I did not get sic…..si oh oh oh
Shaiyma starts shouting and yelling holding her stomach.
Fatma: " what's wrong, Shaiyma? Mom……………….mom
The mother enters the room quickly
The mother: "What happened? What's wrong with you Shaiyma?
Fatma: "She was eating food from the uncovered plate on the table and then she started shouting and yelling".
Shaiyma: "my stomach…..help me…..
Fatma: " Let's take her to the hospital quickly".
Everybody runs from the room and after a short time they come back
The second scene
Fatma: " Thanks God you are good now".
The mother: "Shaiyma, your sister's presence is what save your life".
Shaiyma: "Thank you Fatma and forgive me for insulting you".
The mother: " and you Fatma, But why you let her to eat from the uncovered plate?"
Shaiyma: "No. mother. She tired to stop me and she advised me but I did not listen to her".
Fatma: " This is not important. The most important thing here is that you learned your lesson".
Shaiyma:" I learn not to eat from uncovered food".
The mother:" Yes, Shaiyma. Your are right because the uncovered food is unhealthy".
Fatma: yes, that is true and our religion encourage us to be clean and eat clean food".
