Just a short script (based lightly on Into The Woods) that I wrote for a festival. |
Chased Through The Woods! (Belle, Little Red Riding Hood and Snow White all run to center stage and bump into each other.) Belle: Oh my goodness! Snow White: Oh boy! Little Red: Huh!? Who on earth are you!? (The girls look at each other questioningly.) Belle: Oh…my name is Belle. Snow: Um…I'm Snow White. Who are you? Red: I'm Little Red Riding Hood, of course! Belle: Oh…so…what brings you into the woods today? Snow: Oh, you know, the usual. Slave girl, prettier than Queen, banished to the forest, attacked by wild animals. Basic stuff. It RUINED my hairstyle though! Belle: Oh…that's…awful? What about you, Little Red Riding Hood-? Snow: Little Red is in da hood! Red: NEVER say that again… Snow: Oh…okay… Red: Well, my mom made me take some treats to Granny's house- Belle: Oh, how is she? Red: Oh, old, senile, crazy- Belle: No, you're mother! Red: Old, senile, crazy. Belle: Ah. Red: Anyway, I'm on my way and I met a wolf. He asked me a bunch of really dumb questions, then ROAR! He ran after me! So, I kept running to Granny's house, and then I ran into YOU TWO! So, why are you here? Belle: Oh, I was looking for my dad…and I got chased by wolves! Snow: Oh, not you too! Belle: Yup. But my wolves don't talk. (The girls sit down on a log. There is an awkward silence.) Snow: Hey, Little Red, I love- Red: Full name please! Snow: -Your cloaky, hoody thing. It's very Ralph Lauren. Red: Um…thanks? Snow: Oh, and Beauty- Belle: Belle. Snow: I love your dress - it's so Channel! Belle: Thanks…I love your…bow thing? It's so…Herbal Essenses? (Snow White looks offended.) Belle: Fructis? Pantene? Loreal Kids!? Snow: It's Disney. Belle: Oh. Snow: I wish my fairy godmother was here. Belle: Wait, isn't that Cinderella's story? Snow: Well yeah, but she and I like THIS. (She crosses her fingers to show that they are best friends.) Red: You're kidding. Snow: Oh, yeah! We have lots in common! Red: Like what? Snow: Well, the whole evil-stepmother-making-us-do-all-of-the-chores thing. Like THIS! (She crosses her fingers again.) Belle: Well, I'd better get going. I have to go find my papa…who knows, he might be locked up by some beast right now! Snow: Yeah, and I have to go into hiding. Don't really know why…that guy did however, tell me to watch out for fruit baskets… (She looks nervously at Little Red Riding Hood's basket.) Red: Hey! Bread basket - BREAD BASKET! Belle: Don't you have something to do? Red: Oh yeah…the whole Granny thing. Biscuit? Snow: No thanks, I'm watching my figure. Belle: Yeah…I'll pass. You save those for Granny. Red: As if! Belle: Okay, on the count of three: one, two, THREE! (The girls all scream comically and run off into the distance.) |
