Q

why?

A

no reason. probably i’m just bored. i could also be acting out for a bad childhood. or, the feminist interpretation would be that being a woman is a dead end field in our society and putting you in a tower which in itself is a phallic symbol symbolizes that there is no escape from womanhood in the universe. all that matters about you is your hair, which in turn is a highway for the masculine force of our patriarchal society to enter and take possession of you. for as a woman, a possession is all that you are.

rapunzel: but i want a job
too bad. do some housework
26
rapunzel: there's no furniture
make some. goodbye
27
rapunzel: weren't you going to bring me lunch?
oh right. you know what, i forgot your sack lunch at home. i'll have to climb back in later
28
(prince leaves tower)
rapunzel! rapunzel! let down your hair
29
rapunzel: what am i, a ladder? ow ow ow ow ow ow ow
who was that?
30
rapunzel: nobody
don't lie to me! you just had a man over!
31
rapunzel: you're being overprotective!
i know what's best for you!
32
rapunzel: i want to go and hang out with friends!
they're a bad influence on you! i kept you here to protect you, don't you see? from all those horrible men out there. and from bad influences on television and morning radio programs where all they talk about are bodily functions and getting wasted last night. that's why you're homeschooled. because modern society is horrible, darling. and if you go out there and hear a bad word or see something suggestive you're going to fall apart and live the rest of your life strung out on drugs and riding ok the back of a guy named tanks harley. don't you see? i did it for you.
33
rapunzel: oh. you're just trying to protect me from the real world. i get it now.
see? its because i love you that i lock you away in a tower and don't let anyone near you. i don't want to see you make the same mistakes i did so im taking away any possibility that you make any decisions whatsoever. its called parenting. your parents would have done the same thing if i didn't steal you from them.
34
rapunzel: yeah my real parents were jerks
which is what makes this all the more difficult
35
rapunzel: ahhhhhh i'm bald
yes and now im going to banish you to a desert where you can wander for the rest of your life and think about how you disappointed me
36
narrator 2: can we get back to our story please? narrator 1: right-o
i'll just put rapunzel a hair on my head and wait for that hunky prince
37
prince 2: rapunzel! rapunzel! let down your hair!
here are you are my darling! owowowowowoo
38
prince 2: ah! you're not rapunzel!
oh so now you're picky about who's up here in the tower
39
narrator 2: and as luck would have it he hit a thorn bush which poked out both his eyes prince 2: aack
that's really too bad. i liked him. you know, i have this weird feeling that i'm slightly responsible for this situation. i'm over it. okay, what's on the calendar for today? turning a man into a golden goose. that should be rewarding.
40
dwarf 2: oh come on, now everybody's doing it!
are y'all gonna need me any time soon?
41
snow white: but her step-mother was jealous
snow white.
42
dwarf 2: stepmother
is that a zit i see on your face?
43
dwarf 2: you'd like that, wouldn't you?
i do believe you're putting on weight.
44
dwarf 2: not on this body, sister. these curves are tight and streamlined like a racing yacht owned by a rich colombian drug dealer.
i think you might need to tweeze your eyebrows. they're looking... puffy
45
snow who're: just go with it. and the stepmother went to her room and gazed into her magic mirror.
mirror mirror on the wall, who's the fairest of them all?
46
dwarf 1: well its certainly not you.
curses!
47
snow white: it was her stepmother
stepmother.
48
dwarf 2: snow white.
snow white.
49
dwarf 2: stepmother
look at me and know despair, snow white. for i have a lot of money and have been through a lot of plastic surgery in hollywood. my bust points north, my skin is as smooth as a lake after a storm and i've had all my tattoos lasted off. i've tucked, sucked, vacuumed and erased every visible trace of life experience in the past twenty seven years, and now, i am more beautiful than even you.
50
dwarf 1 (the mirror): not quite.
dang it! well how about an apple as a peace offering?
51
dwarf 2: when are you going to learn stepmother, that we women shouldn't be judged by our surface beauty but rather by the contents of our brains?
um... that's just stupid.
52
dwarf 2: well how bout i use my martial arts skills to take you out then?
oh it's on!
53
snow white: until finally
i shall transform myself into a black dragon! ah hah hah hah!
54
snow white: no that was in the sleeping beauty movie
i thought we were doing the sleeping beauty movie
55
dwarf 2: take that, witch!
ah! i'm melting! actually i'm... bleeding! ahhhhhh
56
walt: its tough being a princess i wish i was something else, like a frog.
done.
57
narrator 2: i think she thinks the oscar committee is watching. but just then, her wicked stepmother entered.
why cinderella, what seems to be the trouble?
58
cinderella: life! life and the misery it entails! if only my mother - my poor, dear, dead motherF were alive, she would take me to the ball
come here and sit on your step mothers lap
59
cinderella: that's weird.
get over it now boy, youve really been hitting the pot roast, haven't you? you'd think that eating dust and sleeping on the hearth would make you skinny -
60
cinderella: im big-boned
right. now. would you like to go to the ball with us? before you answer! think! all those people looking at you. people who hate you on sight its probably a nightmare. you're lucky you get to stay home and clean things for us. let's say you meet charming: oh, it goes alright at first, but then he notices you have bad breath because you haven't been flossing for the past seven years and he fainted, the entire kingdom is in jeoprody -
61
wicked stepsister 2: mother, aren't you coming?
in a moment dear, run along
62
wicked stepsister 1: oh no you didn't!
girls, please! you're both pretty. you're both going to the ball. you both need to exit right now without saying anything else.
63
narrator 2: and so... they left.
thank you. now, cinderella, i am a fair wicked stepmother, so..... i am going to empty an entire dish of lentils into the fireplace, and once you have picked them all out, you may go to the ball with us
64
cinderella: oh i am truly blessed! thank you birds! fly, fly to freedom!
we're off to the ball!
65
cinderella: look wicked stepmother! i have removed all of the lentils
really? well ain't that a kick in the pants. um....
66
cinderella: so i will be accompanying you to the ball! oh how i love balls!
frankly, i don't think you're good enough for balls. besides, you've got nothing to wear. we'd look pretty stupid carting your ugly mug around in those rage all night long. too bad. have to be going.
67
narrator 2: and just then cinderella's wicked stepmother and two wicked stepsisters arrived
cinderella!
68
narrator 2: but they did manage to have a conversation. it went like this: narrator 2: do it
you should go to the dance with the princess
69
snow white: you're not going to oppress me!
i'm hotter than you!
70
snow white: i don't judge myself by my looks but i am still hotter than you!
want to fight about it
71
(fights with snow white)
your kung fu is stronger than mine
72
walt: hi my name is walt and i haven't appeared much in this play yet but i have a big dramatic monologue here that's three pages long and
i'm rising from the dead and cursing you.
73
girl: ah! the dev and the enchantress and the weird guy! rumplestilsken: rumplestilsken. darn it
deal?
74
girl: tough cause i already sold you to the devil and the enchantress and the weird guy
come along rapunzel! i have a nice tower for you
75
devil: you can have her as long as you sign this contract
fine!
76
prince: i like long hair! rapunzel: i like you!
how dare you talk to anyone else
77
crab person (jas): what? oh so that's how it is? no crab people? fine. see if i care

78
prince: baby?
