Cinderella: oh how sad I am!
Actor: There was like some really “BAD”beef in the catering—
Cinderella: Oh the catering is “BAD”
Actor: We don’t have enough actors left to do this one
(CINDERELLA stops acting)
Cinderella: what?
Narrator 2: well I guess we could “SKIp” them then. Too bad about the frog prince, little red riding hood, the talking fish, Cinderella.
Cinderella: NO WE ARE NOT “SKIPPING “IT
Narrator 2: How many actors do we have left?
Actor: Um…me.
Cinderella:
now you listen to me you little reject from Nickelodeon.
This is my chance to be a star got it?We’re going to tell my story.
I’m going to get a full length feature film out of it
and you’re going to make me look good. Got it?
Actor: Well, I—
Cinderella:
GOT IT?
OR ELSE I WILL TEAR OUT YOUR TINY HEART
AND USE IT AS A CHEW TOY
FOR MY HALF-CHIHUAHUA, HALF-DOBERMAN MIX, GOT IT?
Actor: Yes ma’am
Cinderella:
Thank you
Oh how sad. So sad
Narrator 2: Okay, so, her mother died and her father remarried—
Cinderella (:
Overlapping)
Mother?
Where are you mother?
Are you dead?
Narrator 2 : And the woman he married was beautiful of face but black of heart. Now, Cinderellas stepmother had two daughters, both equally beautiful—
Cinderella: (raises her hand)
I’m sorry.
I think you’ve got that wrong.
I’m the pretty one.
They’re quite hideous.
Narrator 2: Says here they’re beautiful too.
Cinderella. I think I know my story, thank you (returns to the floor) Oh they are so mean to me.
Oh so mean.
I can barely stand it.
My tear, oh so many tears,
shall wash these dusty flagstones
Wicked stepsister 1 (actor): oh Cinderella. I need to get ready for the ball—
Cinderella: what ball?
Wicked stepsister 2: He’s so charming. When I see him I just want to grab his little tights-wearing bottom and squeeze until his guards spray me with pepper spray.
Cinderella: can I come?
Wicked stepsister 2: Make me prettier than her. I need Charming. I need him. Please
Cinderella: I suppose. I’m going to need a lot of makeup
Narrator 2: So, being the good girl she was—
Cinderella: I’m so good.
Wicked stepsister 2: I’m gorgeous (ACTOR runs off as wicked stepsister 2, then returns and runs off as wicked stepsister 1)
Cinderella: (overacting)
Life. So unfair.
The room is spinning.
Why, god, why? Why am I just a servant—
a slave!
Lower than the dust.
Lower than the worms who crawl beneath the dust.
So low. So so low.
I shall now cry myself to sleep
as I do every night
Narrator: so, being the good girl that she was
Cinderella: I’m so good
wicked Stepmother” :Why Cinderella what’s seems to be the trouble
?
Cinderella: Life! Life! And the misery it entails
If only my mother my poor, dear ,
dead mother were alive, she would take me to the ball.
Wicked Mother: Come here and sit on your stepmothers lap
V Cinderella:: that’s weird .
Wicked step mother: Now boy you’ve really been hitting the pot roast, haven’t you? You’d think that eating dust and sleeping on the hearth would make you skinny
Cinderella: I’m big boned
Narrator 2: And with that, she dumped a dish of lentils into the fireplace like she said she was going to do
Cinderella: What are lentils?
Narrator 2: They go in soup. And they’re difficult to get out of a fireplace. Apparently
Cinderella: oh the humanity! Oh gods! Why must I always be punished!? But what’s that? What could it be
(She pops up to listen)
Cinderella: My fairy—
The birds (played by ACTOR): tweet! Tweet! Tweet! Tweet!
(Cinderella asking the birds to do something)
Cinderella:
oh look, birds!
They’re so beautiful!
Come, my little feathered friends,
come and peck these lentils out of the fireplace
The birds (actor): peck peck peck! peck peck peck!
(Finished with picking up lentils. Cinderella thanking them)
Cinderella:
oh I am truly blessed!
Thank you birds!
Fly, fly to freedom!
