“Have you heard? Have you heard?”
“Did you see the flyers?”
“Do you think you’ll try out?”
Harry heard whispers throughout the Gryffindor Common Room. He found Hermione and Ron, trying to get through the mass of people to see what is going on.
“What’s going on?” Harry asked, once he reached them.
Hermione held up a flyer she found. “We’re apparently doing a play. You know the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher? Professor LaLlama?”
“Yeah.”
“He used to be an actor, so he’s going to be the director,” said Hermione. She looked eager. “Do you think you guys might try out?”
Ron shook his head. “I was never a really good actor. Every Christmas before I was eleven, we did this stupid Christmas pageant at home, and I would always mess up on the lines.”
“Ron, this isn’t like that. We actually have to rehearse,” Hermione rolled her eyes. “What about you, Harry?”
Harry shrugged. “I guess it wouldn’t hurt. What’s the play going to be?”
“I don’t know,” said Hermione, pointing at the piece of paper. “Professor LaLlama said that we have to wait until the meeting today at seven PM. I guess we’re all going then!”
Before Ron could even protest, Hermione skipped off happily.
“What’s her problem?” Harry asked. “She’s acting like this is a big deal.”
“Well, it kind of is,” Ginny said. She was sitting on one of the squashy chairs, holding a flyer. “Hogwarts has never done this before since 1362.”
Harry looked down at the flyer. “I wonder why.”
