Act One: Scene 1 Woods Out Of The Woods Hansel and Gretel enter. Frogs are croaking. Gretel: Just another day in the woods. I’m so hungry, Hansel, why did you waste all of our bread feeding the birds? Hansel: They were hungry. I felt sorry for them. Gretel: Now we’re hungry, what are we gonna do? Hansel: (notices sign and points) Look, Hill Lorenzo Valley. It looks like we made it to the village! We’re sure to find something to eat here! They skip off. Flora and Fauna, 2 fairies, enter. Flora: Merryweather! Come out! Here comes the Doc. You have enough flowers! We have work to do! Merryweather: (enters following behind them with flowers in her hand) One never has enough flowers. Besides, why must we interfere with the business of people? Fauna: Those witches are getting too big for their britches. That’s why! Flora: Besides, this is a fairy tale! It’s what we do. Merryweather: Well, why do I always have to go? Fauna: Because you're the oldest. Flora: Besides you don’t always have to go, I went last time. Merryweather: Ok, ok, shhh. I’m going in. She hides behind the beanstalk. Doc, a little scientist, enters. He is wearing a lab coat and looks behind to make sure that he’s not being followed. He takes a magnifying glass and is searching the stalk. Doc: Come on baby, one more bean, that’s all I need. [Merryweather places a big bean in his hand.] Yes! Paydirt!

He holds it up in the air to inspect it, looks around, puts it in a pouch and hurries off. Act 1: Scene 2 Hill Lorenzo Valley Little Pig Houses Typical fairytale village with a clock tower, castle with a window and balconu, a Gingerbread Jail-House, and produce stand. Pigs are building their houses (bricks, sticks, pink plastic Barbie dream home). Realtor Pig: (addressing Gingerwitch) Well, it was nice to meet you, here’s my card. Remember: ‘Century Anyone’. If you ever do consider selling, I can guarantee you a good price. There is such a housing crunch in this valley. I see that you are using this house as a jail house, but it could make a lovely B and B. Gingerbread houses are very desirable. Realtor Pig acts very hungry and tries to pull off a piece of the house. Gingerwitch smacks her hand. Gingerwitch: You had better run along, piggy, before I put pork pie on special! Gingerwitch goes inside shop and slams door/window behind her. Realtor Pig goes to her unfinished stick house (with no roof) and joins the other pigs who are building their houses. Realtor Pig: My house of sticks will have the best resale value. With this open, “airy" layout and view of the sky, this beauty will sell itself! Barbie Pig: Well I’m not interested in selling! Hipster Pig: That’s right, Sis. We have to build shelters so we can be safe from big, bad wolves. Barbie Pig: OMG! I can’t wait to move in! A few finishing touches to the garage and my dream house is almost done. Ken will be so excited when he sees what I made! Now, off with my Barbie the Builder outfit. [Takes coveralls off and is in a classic 1950s hostess outfit.] Much better. [Looks in a hand mirror and applies lipstick.] Hipster Pig: That plastic house is so commercial Barbie! Plus the plastic is full of PCB’s! So not eco-friendly! I’m building my house out of hand made bricks that I made

by rooting for fresh clay and mixing it with equal parts water and sand. My brick house is wind resistant, so I don’t have to worry about huffing and puffing. Check out my chimney! I just used a mason jar! Realtor Pig: We do live in a most unusual place, don’t we? Barbie Pig: Why don’t we tell these nice people about it? As Pigs sing, lights come up on various characters that make an appearance during the song. Little Pig Houses Pigs: There’s a blind mouse with a black bear Livin’ right in our neighborhood They got a gingerbread man runnin’ through the front yard You know they’d eat him if only they could And there’s Granny In the kitchen Cookin’ up the Giants’ slop And he counts his beans and says: hey Ma’ let’s plant another beanstalk Chorus (Pigs): But ain’t that a fairy tale, for you and me Ain’t that a fairy tale, ya’ll came to see babe Ain’t that a fairy tale For a small fee (LPRT) Little pig houses for you and me, for you and me Well there’s Snow White and the mean queen It’s a bad, bad situation Queenie checks her hair and her evil smile Mirror says “Lord, you need a vacation” Queenie’s jealous, and full of envy Wants to be fairest in the land Sends Snow White into the woods to be killed by her wicked huntsmen Well little people in their lab coats What do they know, know, know? Doc is workin’ day and night On the space time continuum Hope they get right

Oh yeah And there's swimmers and there’s losers Hoping to make things right Cuz it’s a fairy tale baby With dreams and schemes and laughs and screams [Repeat chorus: All] Act 1: Scene 3 The Woods Encounter With The Law Jack is trying to pull Einstein the cow into the scene. He stops when Einstein won’t go any further. Jack: Come on Einstein. I don’t want to sell you either. But you heard Mother. If you can’t milk, we can’t keep you. [Einstein collapses with a pathetic “Moo.”] Not here, can’t you make it to the side of the road? You know how the Sheriff is always on my case. Ok Einstein, we can rest for a minute. Jack has his hat pulled down, leaning on a resting cow. Sheriff and Deputy Biff ride up on stick horses. Deputy Biff: Hey! No loitering! Can’t you read? [He points to the sign that says “Welcome to Hill Lorenzo Valley”.] Sheriff: Well, well, if it isn’t Lazy Jack McFry. Loitering again! What a slacker. There’s a tax for loitering. You owe taxes to the Queen! Deputy Biff: Pay up, McFry! Sheriff: You don’t like the law, do you Jack McFry? That’s because you're a slacker. You know, you remind me of your father, he’s a slacker too. In fact tell your old man he’s late paying his taxes. We’re gonna have to tack on a late fee. Jack: Why don’t you tell him yourself, Sheriff? Sheriff: No sass, young man. Now do as I say and move along. Deputy Biff: Yeah, why don’t you make like a tree and get lost! Gingerbread Man runs in.

Gingerbread Man: (to audience, super loud and extremely paranoid) Run! Run! Fast as you can! They won’t catch me I’m the Gingerbread Man! Sheriff and Deputy Biff quickly turns their attention from Jack to Gingerbread Man. Deputy Biff: Hey, no running! Can’t you read the sign? [He points to the sign.] Sheriff: There’s a tax on running! Sheriff and Deputy Biff go after Gingerbread Man. Page enters. Page: I have an important message from the venerable Professor Doc, for a Jack McFry. Jack: What is it? [He takes the scroll from Page and reads. Page exits.] “Bring Einstein to me right away! Needed for the advancement of science.” Did you hear that old girl. I guess we better go and see the Doc. [They exit.] Act 1: Scene 4 Present - HillVillies A Day In The Life Fairies enter while Mother Goose is speaking. Mother Goose: (writing in a big journal) Jack and Jill went up the…road? No, no, that’s not it. Jack and Jill went up the... hmmmm. Merryweather: (stage whisper) The Hill. Mother Goose: Oh well, well, well, it looks like the fairies are paying us a visit! To what do we owe this honor? Jack’s Mom: (is arranging a few apples on a blanket or table) Speaking of Jack, has anyone seen my lazy son? He was to sell our cow and help me with the market. Granny enters, waving baguettes of bread under the noses of the HillVillies. Granny: (snatching up some apples from produce cart) The Queen loves red apples! I’ll take this for the Queen. And my grandson Biff works so hard, I’ll take one for him. And this one will make a lovely centerpiece for the Queen’s table. Pay up. Jack’s Mom hands her money from her pocket.

Granny: Is that all you have? Realtor Pig: That’s not how it’s supposed to work. Jack’s Mom: Usually people pay us for our produce. Granny: Good, then I’ll be back when you’ve made more money. [Granny exits.] Flora: How can you just sit there on your tuffets! Fauna: You HillVillies have been silent for too long! Miss Muffet: That’s easy for you to say, you’re fairies. The witches have no power over you. Old Mother Hubbard: That’s right! You won’t be turned out for not paying taxes whenever her Sheriff demands. Hipster Pig: Can’t we all just get along? Mother Bear: That’s right. We have the the annual Under-The-Clocktower Dance tonight. At least that’s something to look forward to.

Father Bear: We already have enough to worry about, without taking on the forces of evil. Shoe Mother: I can barely afford to pay rent, and I live in an old shoe! Barbie Pig: My dream home definitely does not include a jail cell! Thumbelina: I’m hungry, Mama. Old Mother Hubbard: Don’t look at me, my cupboards are bare. Merryweather: Here you are, dearie. [Hands her an apple.] Would you like to come live with the fairies? Thumbelina: I want to live with the fairies, Mama! Shoe Mother pulls Thumbelina close. Red and Wolfie enter. Wolfie, smelling the gingerbread house, tries to pick at it. Takes a breath and huffs, is about to puff...

Red: Wolfie! You’d better not have been snacking. You’re supposed to be watching your diet. You want to fit into your jacket tonight, don’t you? Wolfie: I’m so hungry I could eat a house! [Nibbles on gingerbread house. Gingerwitch comes out of the house.] Red: Well not that one. No gluten remember. Gingerwitch: Paws off, you old dog!!! (to Red) Watch your husband or I’ll put a muzzle on him and throw him jail! Red: (dragging Wolfie off) How will we celebrate our anniversary tonight if you're in the Gingerbread Jail? Shape up! Wolfie: Yes dear, whatever you say dear. [They exit.] Jack’s Mom: (dreamily) It was the first Under-The-Clocktower Dance. My guardian, the gingerbread witch, wouldn’t let me go. That was the night I cut off my hair. That night at the dance I remember George danced with me for the very first time. [McFry enters clumsily with an almost empty cart with some wilted produce hanging out.] It was then I realized I was going to spend the rest of my life with him. Goldilocks runs in chasing Baby Bear. Baby Bear: Mama! Goldilocks is at it again. She ate the last of our porridge. Goldilocks: I was only tasting it to see if it was too hot! Why do you have to be such a tattle tale? [Sticks her tongue out at him.] Na-na-na -na-na, you can’t catch me! Mother Bear: Goldilocks, you’d better run along or I’ll get the Queen’s Sheriff to issue another restraining order! Old Mother Hubbard: It’ll be fun to kick up my shoes tonight and cut a rug. Shoe Mother: I hope I can make it. Miss Muffett can’t babysit, and I’m not sure I can get a babysitter. Miss Muffet: I’m not sitting on my tuffet tonight! Mother Goose: It’s nice we can uphold the Under-The-Clocktower Dance tradition. Even with our political disagreements.

Gingerwitch: We may be witches, but we love to dance! The Clocktower Dance Today Jack’s Mom: We live in a town where a wicked witch threw our dreams in a garbage can Welcome to a land where everything’s a mess, not how it’s always been My lazy son has a cow for a best friend I work so hard but it seems like a dead end This is all so crazy, hard work seems so useless Our tummies hurting but we’re dancing to the music Feels nothing can hurt us ‘Cuz when the band plays under the clock tower And Red’s riding cloak is on And my hair is washed and combed And our dancing shoes are on All: So put your hands up, they're playin' our song Our troubles will fly away I'm noddin' my head like "Yeah!" Clappin’ my hands like "Yeah!" Got our hands up, they're playin' our song And we know it’s gonna be ok Yeah-ah-ah-ah It’s the Clock-tower dance today Yeah-ah-ah-ah It’s the Clock-tower dance today Gingerwitch: At the Clock-tower dance we rule the night Everybody's lookin' at me now Like "there’s a witch that's rockin' kicks She's gotta be the boss of the town" So much fun with our friends around us We definitely know how to party And we’ll pay for it tomorrow But that’s ok ‘cause it’s tomorrow All: Our tummies hurting but we’re dancing to the music Feels nothing can hurt us ‘Cuz when the band plays under the Clock-tower And my riding cloak is on

And my hair is washed and combed And our dancing shoes are on So put your hands up, they're playin' our song Our troubles will fly away I'm noddin' my head like "Yeah!" Clappin’ my hands like "Yeah!" Got our hands up, they're playin' our song And we know it’s gonna be ok Yeah-ah-ah-ah It’s the Clock-tower dance today Yeah-ah-ah-ah It’s the Clock-tower dance today Sheriff and Deputy Biff enter. Sheriff: McFry, did you ever get that permit to sell produce to the public? McFry: Uh, well, I don’t have one yet, but you know I figured since I’ve been a farmer my whole life... Deputy Biff: Hello, hello, anybody home? Think, McFry, think. [Takes the last of the spinach from the cart.] Do you realize what would happen if I ate this and got sick and you didn’t have a permit? You wouldn’t want that to happen, would you? McFry: Of course not, Biff, no I wouldn't want that to happen. Sheriff: We’ll come by the McFry farm tomorrow to collect taxes. Deputy Biff: The Queen’s orders. Jack’s Mom: Again? Deputy Biff: Better make sure you’re home. Bean head. Sheriff and Deputy Biff exit. Hansel and Gretel enter. Hansel: Look Gretel! I told you there would be food here! Gretel: You were right Hansel! Granny’s! Candy! They begin to nibble on the Gingerwitch's house.

Gingerwitch: I’ve got you now! Nibbling on my house, you little thieves. She cuffs Hansel and Gretel, throws them into jail. Shoe Mother: Oh my goodness, the witch is jailing children? What next? Gingerbread Man: Run, run, as fast as you can! Flora: That’s not the answer Gingerbread Man. Fauna: Don’t give up HillVillies! Change is in the air! Times They Are A-Changin’ Fairies: Come gather ’round people This is your home It’s true that a wicked witch sits in the throne Don’t have to accept it Don’t sit there and groan If your town to you is worth savin’ You better start fighting’ or you’ll sink like a stone For the time it’s is a-changin’ Come writers and realtors and Gingerbread men And keep your eyes wide When the chance comes again And don’t be surprised When the wheel starts to spin And there’s no tellin’ who that it’s namin’ For the loser now will be later to win For the time it is a-changin’ Act 1: Scene 5 Woods The Power Of Love Snowy and the three visually-impaired mice enter. Mice walk tentatively with their canes. Snowy: Okay kittens, remember, be good helpers.

Each kitten takes a mouse by the hand as they reach the bridge/stairs. Fluffy: Here we are, right this way. Brie: Why thank you. Muffy: There you go, easy does it. Minnie: Much obliged. Scruffy: (goes to grab the mouse’s hand and notices she has no mittens) Oh no! Where are my mittens? I‘ve gotta go back and get my mittens. [Scruffy runs off crying, leaving mouse Iris.] Iris: Hey, I thought you were gonna help me cross the bridge! Come back! Snowy comes to Iris’s aide. Snowy: (to Iris) We’ll keep working with the seeing-eye cats. It’s 325 steps to the grain silo. Good luck with the farmer’s wife. Iris exits. Jack and Einstein catch up to Snowy. Snowy: Hi there. (to Jack) Poor old Einstein. [Gives her a pat.] Are you hungry? [Offers Einstein a crust of bread.] Einstein: (responds affirmatively) Jack: Einstein sure likes you, Snowy. Snowy: Oh, that’s because I’m an animal person. Jack: You sure are. No one but you could get kittens to help mice. Bo Peep: (enters) Here sheep! Here sheepy, sheepy. Snowy: Oh hey there Little Bo Peep. Bo Peep: Hi Snowy, can you believe it? I’ve lost my sheep again. Where ever will I find them?

Script and Lyrics by: Janinne Chadwick c. 2015 For Little People’s Repertory Theatre

Snowy: (very knowingly) Remember last time? Just leave them alone and they’ll come home... Bo Peep: Oh right, thanks Snow White! You always know what to do. Snowy: I guess I’m a people person, too! Humpty Dumpty: (dramatically tries to keep his balance) Wooooah! Snowy: Oh! (to Jack) Won’t you excuse me for a second? Humpty Dumpty is about to fall off a wall; Snowy runs over and props him up! Humpty Dumpty: Thank you! That was eggs-ceptionally kind of you! Jack: And an egg person! Page enters followed by Sheriff, Biff and The Huntsmen, who are stereotypic punk: spikes, safety pins, spiked hair… Page: Make way for The Huntsmen. Sheriff: Show some respect. This is a loyal servant to the Queen. Deputy Biff: Maybe we ought to cite them all for disorderly conduct. Souxie: Princess Snow White, we have orders from your stepmother, The Queen. Dee Dee: She wants you to come home for her beauty treatment. Markie: Even though I don’t think it will help. Joan: She was real mad! Joey: I don’t think she likes you, Princess. Jack: Well, she’s gotta be the only one in the land who doesn’t like Snowy. Patti: You had better hurry Princess, you know how she gets. Snowy: (dejected) Well, I’d better be going. It’s true the Queen doesn’t like to be kept waiting.

Jack: Sorry Snowy, you’ve had it rough. Your father, the King, was put under a spell and overthrown by the wicked Queen. You’ve been forced into servitude instead of being able to take your rightful place on the throne. I just don’t know how you stay so positive. (Various Hillvillies come in and dance like the T. Swift video) Shake It Off Snowy: My life would-a been great, my Daddy was the King Then one awful day, my luck went away No handsome prince to date, don’t need one any way I’m happy every day, I’m happy every day ‘Cuz I keep living, life that is amusing I got this fairy story in my mind says the end’s gonna be alright. ‘Cuz the witches gonna curse, curse, curse, curse curse And the legal system may be worse, worse, worse Baby, I’m just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake I shake it off, I shake it off Giant’s gonna break, break, break, break, break Evil queens are only fake, fake, fake, fake, fake Baby, I’m just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake I shake it off, I shake it off I shake it off, I shake it off I shake it off, I shake it off I shake it off, I shake it off I shake it off, I shake it off Hey, hey, hey, just think while you've been getting down and out about the witches and curses, and evil evil Queens in the world you could have been dancin’ round to this sick beat My old man used to be the king he’s like oh my kingdom’s run by witches now We’re like shake it off, I shake it off And to the huntsman over there with the spiky blue hair Won't you come on over, baby, we can shake, shake, shake ‘Cuz the witches gonna curse, curse, curse, curse curse And the legal system may be worse, worse, worse Baby, I’m just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake I shake it off, I shake it off Giant’s gonna break, break, break, break, break Evil queens are only fake, fake, fake, fake, fake

Baby, I’m just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake Shake It Off... Queenie: (yelling out the window) Snow White! Where is that ragamuffin? Snowy: Coming Your Majesty! Jack: Are we still on for the annual Under-The-Clock Tower Dance tonight? Snowy: I hope so Jack! But I gotta run! Snowy exits, followed by the Huntsmen, Page, Sheriff and Biff. During the next song the fairies and McFry magically appear. The Power Of Love Jack: The power of love is a curious thing Make a one egg crack, make another man sing Make the fairies fly down from heaven above More than a fairytale, that's the power of love Tougher than diamonds, or piles of gold Stronger than a cow who can be bought or sold Make a bad witch good, make a boy a knight Power of love will always win the fight It don’t need riches, don’t take fame No fancy palace or important name It comes on strong cruel sometimes But it might just save your life That’s the power of love, that’s the power of love Act 1: Scene 6 Queenie’s room It’s Not All About The Face Queenie: Ladies! Catherine, Maria, Diana and Willow are tidying up. Rose, Elsa, Elaine and Juniper are brushing the queen’s hair, fanning her, spritzing her, etc. Queenie: You ladies (points to the girls who are cleaning) bring me my magic mirror!

Script and Lyrics by: Janinne Chadwick c. 2015 For Little People’s Repertory Theatre

16

Catherine: Yes, your Majesty. Diana: (curtsying) Right away. Willow: (curtsying) The mirror is all nice and polished. Queenie: My mirror of truth: once a good and honest King, now my slave! Rose: The King certainly was a good, kind King. Maria: He is a treasure, your Majesty. Queenie: Stop gabbing. Don’t dilly dally. The girls bring in the mirror. Queenie: Mirror, mirror, on a stand, who’s the fanciest in the land? Mirror: (somewhat cowering) I used to be the King it’s true, now the fanciest one is you. Queenie: Yes! I knew it! Snowy enters. Queenie: Snow White, here you are. Girls, move out of the way. Little Princess Snowy hasn’t given me my treatment today. Oh, my neck is so stiff. This crown is so heavy. Snow White, I need a neck rub. Queenie sits at her vanity and kicks her feet up. Snowy begins to rub her neck. Snowy: Would you like me to take your crown off to give your neck a rest? Queenie: (sarcastically) Why yes! (laughs an evil laugh) Hahaha! Oh you’d like that, wouldn’t you? Back off. You're just dreaming of the day you can usurp me! Well dream on, Princess. Your father was a dreamer too and look where it got him! Go on girls, time for my beauty treatment. You know what to do! You (to Elsa) rub ashes on her face. Elsa: Yes your Majesty. Queenie: More! And you two (to Juniper and Elaine) mess up her hair! Juniper: It looks kind of messy already.

Script and Lyrics by: Janinne Chadwick c. 2015 For Little People’s Repertory Theatre

17

Snowy: Here, let me help you. Elaine: Thank you Princess, you're so kind. Queenie: (mocking) Thank you Princess, you're so kind. [Mirror tries to slowly slip out.] Not so fast Mirror! [She looks in the mirror, pressing her eyes, pinching her cheeks, etc.] I think I’ll take a nap. I need my beauty sleep. Mirror: Good idea Queenie, goodnight. [Tries to hurry out again, maybe humming a lullaby.] Queenie: Come back, you know the rules. The spell clearly states that you are bound to your honesty. You must tell me the truth. Mirror: Oh, well, you know, the truth is really overrated, your highness! Queenie: Mirror! Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who’s the fanciest of them all? Mirror: [Fakes snoring] Queenie: Wake up slave! Answer the question! Mirror: Sorry Queenie, if truth be told, Snow White’s heart is pure as gold. Don’t smash me, please, but without a doubt, Snow is fancy inside and out. All About That Face Mirror and Ladies in Waiting: Because you know It’s more than just the face Not just the face That’s special It’s more than just the face Not just the face That’s special It’s more than just the face Not just the face That’s special It’s more than just the face Not just the face Mirror:

Yeah it’s pretty clear When I compare you two You got the fancy look like queens supposed to do Your powder room room takes up some space For all of that gunk all over your face I know your magic spell is how you stay on top Your beauty isn’t real, your reign’s about to stop Because real beauty beauty don’t need those props When every inch of you is perfect From the bottom to the top Yeah, the Princess is pretty as well as she is kind She don’t need fancy clothes Cuz she’s nice and she’s refined Although I used to be King now I’m a mirror on the wall Soon the spell will broken time for you to move along Because you know It’s more than just the face Not just the face That’s special It’s more than just the face Not just the face That’s special It’s more than just the face Not just the face That’s special It’s more than just the face Not just the face Queenie: This is an outrage! Out, all of you! You will pay for your insubordinance! Ladies in Waiting adlib “sorry Queen”... apologetic behavior as they exit. Queenie slowly approaches Snow White threateningly. Snowy: I’m sorry Stepmother, your Majesty. I’m sure the mirror is just tired. Look at me, just a scruffy ragamuffin, like you’re always saying. Queenie: Do you actually think I’m worried about what an old mirror’s opinion? Of course you are a scruffy ragamuffin. Go! Talk to a bird, or play with a squirrel. Get out of my sight. Snowy exits.

Mirror: Well, I’ll be leaving now. Enjoy your beauty rest. Queenie: Not so fast you. Pulls the mirror close and sings. Dream On Queen: Every time I look in the mirror My reflection is clearly superior Mirror you're wrong You think just because Snow is young She should stay out of my way If she won’t I promise she will pay! Look at my perfect nose Cheekbones are high and pink as a rose Might need some-more collagen My roots look grey Is that a mole on my chin? Snow White’s young, her beauty amazes In due time I’ll be wiped from the pages Can it be true? All the things you do come back to you Work with me, please magic mirror Give me a chance you're not seeing clear That little brat’s in my way You’ll see tomorrow the Huntsmen will take her away Mirror: Dream on, dream on dream on Dreaming’s all that you can do Dream on, dream on dream on Dream that never will come true Dream on, dream on, dream on... Queenie: Huntsmen! The Huntsmen enter. Sid: Your Majesty?

Script and Lyrics by: Janinne Chadwick c. 2015 For Little People’s Repertory Theatre

Queenie: Huntsmen, I order you to go into the woods and find Snow White! And when you find her you must eliminate her! Dee Dee: Eliminate her? Souxie: Do you mean (axe to the throat pantomime)? Johnny: Little Princess Snowy? Patti: But she’s really nice. Joey: And pretty. Queenie: You heard me! You're the huntsmen, remember? Markie: That’s just the name of our band. Johnny: (puts hand over Markie’s mouth) Yes, your Majesty! We live to serve! They exit. Act 1: Scene 7 Frogtown Frogtown Snowy sits down on the well. Frogs enter a few at a time hopping in. Fergie: Ribit! Excuse me, but you’re blocking my light. Fifi: Can’t you see we’re trying to sun ourselves? Ribit. Flo: Ribit and get some exercise. Snowy: Oh, pardon me. Fergie: Yep, ribit. [Zaps a fly.] The flies like it, too. Frannie: Why don’t you join us? Snowy: Actually, I have to be getting along. Fiona: Hopping is good for you!

Frankie: It increases endorphins. Molly: Puts you in a good mood. Snowy: Sorry if I seem grumpy. Polly: You do seem kind of grumpy. Phyllis: Now, now children, don’t be rude. Please excuse my pollywogs. You’re not from around here, are you? Snowy: Allow me to introduce myself. I’m Snow White, Princess Snow White. Charming: (pushes other frogs aside) Did you say “Princess”? [He tries to kiss her hand, and continues up her arm. She shakes him off.] Allow me to introduce myself. Prince Charming. I’m sure you’ve heard of me. Snowy: Well, sure, I’ve heard of Prince Charming, but you aren’t exactly what I pictured. Phyllis: You don’t exactly look like a princess either. Just sayin’. Fergie: Oh great, another wanna-be royal. Charming: How many times do I have to tell you? I am not a wanna-be, I am a prince! Frankie: Well in case you haven’t noticed, it wouldn’t matter if you were Kermit the Frog himself. No one gets any special treatment down here in Frogtown. Snowy: Oh, don’t worry about me. I’m not used to special treatment. My stepmother, the evil queen, is really a witch. My father has been enslaved in her mirror since I was a baby, and she has forced me to live like a servant. Charming: Those wicked witches in Hill Lorenzo Valley are mean! One of them did this to me a long time ago! She put me under this wretched spell and turned me into a disgusting frog! Fiona: Hey buddy, watch it.

Charming: I was the most desired prince in all the land, everyone wanted to marry me! I had my pick of princesses and damsels and maidens. I was about to rescue a beautiful maiden from a tower. She had long, flowing hair. I was about to climb her hair. Fifi: (sarcastically) That sounds romantic. Frogs laugh. Charming: How was I supposed to know her godmother, an evil witch, was watching.

Charming: One kiss from a princess and I’ll be free from this curse!

Snowy: You know, I’d really love to help you and all, but I know a little about curses, my stepmother’s a witch. That curse won’t be lifted if I kiss you. It has to be “true loves kiss.”

Charming: What are you saying? All the ladies love me.

Snowy: I have to go. Good luck with finding true love. Nice to meet you frogs. And please, if anyone asks, you haven’t seen me.

Dee Dee: (from offstage) Princess, where are you? The Huntsmen enter. Johnny: Look, there’s the Princess! Markie: Has anyone thought about what we’re gonna do now? Patti: We aren’t real hunters. Johnny: Leave it to me! (to Snowy) We found you, Princess! Now we’re gonna capture you! Sid: And eliminate you. [Grabs Snowy.] Queen’s orders! Snowy: (composing herself) I guess you have your orders. I suppose I’m ready now. [Snow White begins to cry.] Joey: (softening) Don’t cry Princess. Dee Dee: (puts an arm around her too) It’s okay, Princess, it won’t hurt, that bad... Johnny: The Queen’s gone too far this time! Fairies enter dressed as punk fairies. Sid: Who are you? Merryweather: We’re The Fairies. Flora: (nudging her) That’s the name of our band.

Sprinkles fairy dust. Some kind of magical effect happens. Act 1: Scene 8 The Seven Scientist’s Lab Weird Science Wacky topsy-turvy setting. Six scientists are working on various projects. Sneezy: Aaachoo! I detect an innocuous antigen provoking an allergic response. I wonder what it is. Jack knocks at the door. Grumpy: (to Sleepy) Are you sleeping again? Wake up and answer the door. This lithium sample is highly reactive, I don’t want it to oxidize. Sleepy: (yawning) It’s the law of inertia, a body at rest remains at rest. Dopey: (a book in front of his face, is trying to open the wall) “The sum of the square root of any two sides of an isosceles triangle is equal to the square root of the remaining side.” Jack knocks at the door again. Bashful: I’ll get it, even though I have terrible social anxiety. Bashful opens the door shyly. Jack: Hi everyone, I heard that Doc wanted to see me? Sneezy: Aaachoo! I knew it! Einstein, my bovine allergy! Jack: Gesundheit! Is the Doc around? Happy: Greetings! So happy to see you. We get so few visitors around here and today we have three! Look everyone! Isn’t this great? Snowy comes out of hiding. Jack: Snowy!

Doc bursts into the lab. Maybe tumbles in from an explosion. He has a giant bean in a tweezer. Doc: Here you are, [checks his watch] right on time! The Princess is in grave danger. The whole town is! It’s taken me a long time to come up with the right chemical combination. According to my calculations, the lactose in Einstein’s milk is the missing ingredient. Jack: Well, that’s a real problem Doc. (whispers) I was on my way to sell her. Einstein: (insulted) Moo! Jack: I think she’s empty. She hasn’t given any milk for days. Bashful: (pats Einstein on the head) Maybe she’s shy. Doc: Here you go, Einy, try the last of the magic beans. Doc feeds it to Einstein. Einstein kicks up her heels and runs around the room! Doc: Her milk is going to be critical to taking power back from the evil Queen. I’ll tell you all about it while we’re on our way, but right now, we haven’t got time! Dopey: Well that’s not exactly accurate. Time is actually infinite. Doc: (pats Dopey’s shoulder) That’s right Dopey. Jack: I never understood why they call him Dopey. Dopey: It’s an acronym for Doctor of Physics, Engineering and Yttriumology. Sneezy: (adds dry ice to a test tube and sneezes) That’s the last of the yttrium. Grumpy: (sarcastically) Oh that’s just great. Come on scientists, back to mining for heavy metals. Scientists whistle while they grab their pick axes. Breakin’ Laws Of Physics Doc, Jack, Snowy, Einstein and Scientists: We get up every morning Despite the radioactive warnings

At the mines where the metals are heavy Put on our kevlar gloves And don’t forget our picks and shovels A crust of bread for when we get hungry And if we’re out on time We can get to work by nine We have to work this hard every day We never get distracted Scientific advancement Is all we really want to be paid {Refrain} So we’re breakin laws of physics Every way We’ve been breakin laws of physics In the mines Breakin laws of physics and working overtime Work out! Act 1: Scene 9 Outskirts/base of beanstalk Time Trippers

DeLorean is parked at base covered in vines. Doc removes vines and uncovers.

Jack: Doc! What is this?

Doc: Welcome to my latest experiment.

Snowy: Is it some kind of carriage?

Doc: Bare with me, kids, all of your questions are about to be answered. Jack, I need you to carefully fill this [gives Jack a beaker] with Einstein’s milk.

Jack: (milks Einstein) You're gonna feed it milk?

Einstein: Moo!

Doc: It’s not alive, it’s a time machine. If I’m right, Einstein’s magic bean-laced milk will fuel this baby and make time travel possible. (as he takes the beaker of milk from Jack) If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits eighty-eight miles per hour, you're gonna see some serious magic!

Snowy: Doc, are you saying that we can go into the future?

Doc: Yes Snowy, but first we have to go back in time! Back to that fateful night. The night the witches discovered that the beans could give them power. The night they realized that using the magic beans would enable them to eventually overthrow King Cole. It all happened the night of a rhythmic ceremonial ritual.

Jack: Huh?

Doc: There was a rhythmic ceremonial ritual that night.

Snowy: (dawning on her) The first Under-The-Clock Tower Dance!

Doc: Correct!

Snowy: My father. He was enslaved that night and forced to live in the witch’s mirror. Doc, would I be able to see my father before the spell took effect? Can I go back in time and talk to him?

Doc: No! Absolutely not! Both of you must stay hidden. If you were to interfere in any way, it could unravel the very fabric of the space-time continuum! Besides, I have an important job for the both of you when we get there.

Jack: What’s the job, Doc?

Doc: (hands them a hatchet) The beans are the source of the witch’s power, but the potency only lasts as long as a cycle of the moon. If you can chop down the beanstalk their power will wane with the moon. Once you chop it down, whatever damage has been done won’t last.

Snowy: This is a chance to make things right for everyone in Hill Lorenzo Valley!

Time Tripper (Doc, Snowy, Jack and Einstein) Got a good reason For taking the time machine out Got a good reason For taking the time machine out I am a time tripper Round trip ticket, yeah And now it’s your turn to find out What I found out Queen’s a big loser Doesn’t know how to play fair She’s a big loser

He hides, spying on Jack, Snowy and Doc.

Jack: Did you hear something?

Frogs ribit.

Snowy: It was only the frogs.

Doc: (helps them put helmets and goggles on) Let's get you into these radiation suits, you’ll need these. Come on, get in! [Doc helps Jack and Snowy into the car.]

Jack: What do these switches do? Doc: Say you wanna go back in time to see the knights of the round table? You could even go further back to paleolithic period to July 24th, 10,000 BP. [They look at him quizzically.] Before Physics! To the day the magic beanstalk was planted. You could set it 15 years into the future and check in on your grandchildren. [Smacks his hand over his mouth.] Jack: Our grandchildren? Doc: Nevermind. We’re setting it for August 1st, fifteen years ago.

Jack: What, I don't get it, what happened? Doc: The day of the dance I conceived of time travel. I remember it vividly. I

was with the little scientists doing fieldwork at the edge of the woods; they were just grad students at the time. It was really Sneezy’s lactose intolerance that gave me the idea. As we were taking a little snack break, Sneezy took a sip of milk and it made him sneeze. His sneeze landed him and his milk and cookies right smack in a witch’s cauldron. I realized then that lactose would be critical to my work. Snowy: So that’s where Einstein’s milk comes in? Doc: That’s right! The flux capacitor! [He pours the milk into the DeLorean]. I'm setting the date for exactly 15 years ago. The temporal displacement will occur at exactly 1:20 p.m. and zero seconds. Now kids, try not to talk to anyone or touch anything but the beanstalk. Don't do anything! Don't interact with anyone and try not to even look at anything.

As Doc is about to get into the car, the Sheriff jumps out and puts Doc in a wrestling hold.

Doc: Great Scott!

Sheriff: Biff? Oh where is that dolt when you need him?

Jack: Doc! Hurry!

Snowy: We can’t go without you Doc!

Sheriff: You’re under citizen's arrest for practicing medicine without a license!

Doc: It’s too late kids! The time machine has already been programed! Don’t forget what I said!

As Doc is being dragged off, the DeLorean spins, special effects.

Act 1: Scene 10 Entire cast with Doc singing lead (opera style)

Act 2: Scene 1 Woods - Past Hey Red Ridinghood

Sign that reads ”Hill Lorenzo Valley Population 73”. Jack and Snowy climb out of DeLorean. Tiny Gingerbread Person (possibly a Junior Player) cartwheels in and almost crashes into Jack and Snowy. Sees them and screams!

Jack: Was that the Gingerbread Man?

Snowy: We must be in the past?

Young Red is skipping down the path with a basket of goodies.

Snowy: Look Jack! Is that Mother Red Riding Hood?

Jack: I don’t know anyone else who wears red cloaks.

Snowy: She’s so young!

Red: (a few spins) Over the mountains and through the woods to grandmother’s house I go.

As she does a cartwheel, Wolfie saunters in, whistles and howls.

Red: Oh no you don’t! I may be wearing a red cloak, but I have a black belt in karate!

Red does a cheesy martial arts pose and reveals her black belt.

Wolfie: Wow! That’s really boss.

Red: Get out of my way, can’t you see I’m in a hurry?

Wolfie: Cool your jets, little sister, what’s your hurry?

Red: My grandma is waiting and she’ll come out looking for me if I’m late. [She skips a few paces and he catches up with her.] (Menacingly) And she has a black belt too! In fact, she taught me everything I know.

Wolfie: Your grandmother?

Red: My grandmother!

Wolfie: Wait! I’ve never met anyone like you. Who are you?

Red: Well my friends call me Red Riding Hood.

Little Red Ridinghood Wolfie: Owoooooo! Who’s this walking in these here woods, Why a girl named Red Riding Hood. Hey there Little Red Riding Hood, You sure are looking good. You're everything a big, bad wolf could want. Red: I don’t really think that I should Go walking in these spooky old woods alone. Wolfie: Owoooooooo! About that black belt you have, I promise not to make you mad. Please tell grandma that I don’t bite. I’m sorry if I gave you a fright. What big eyes you have, Especially when you are mad. When you look so strong and brave I almost want to run home to my cave Little Red Riding Hood, you sure are looking good You're everything that a big, bad wolf could want. Owoooooooo! Red and Wolfie: It’s true that we just met, You’re someone I won’t forget, You never can tell in these woods if someone you meet is bad or good, Wonder if we could be friends I guess it all depends I’ve never met someone so brave I guess we could talk on the way to while we’re on our way.

Act 2: Scene 2 Hill Lorenzo Valley - 1950s Announcement From The Palace HillVillies are gathered.

Page: (from castle balcony) Attention citizens of Hill Lorenzo Valley. At King Cole’s request, you are invited to close your shops and finish your work early this evening to prepare for the Under-The Clock-Tower Dance.

Mother Goose: Good Old King Cole he’s such a merry old...fellow?

Old Mother Hubbard: I heard that the real reason he’s throwing this dance is because he’s looking for a Queen.

Willow: How Romantic!

Maria: He wants a mother for the baby Princess.

Shoe Mother: Well I hope he doesn’t look at me. I already have my hands full.

Elsa: I wouldn’t worry, I think he’s looking for someone a little more...

Elaine: A little more royal.

Bo Peep: I heard that a Duchess from The Valley of Scott’s would be attending.

Miss Muffet: Oh! A duchess! I’d better get off my tuffet and find something elegant to wear. You know those Valley women.

Rose: They are very stylish and fashionable!

Act 2: Scene 3 Hill Lorenzo Valley - 1950s downtown Rapunzel, Rapunzel Goldilocks and Thumbelina are dancing around the tower. Rapunzel is eating an apple or reading a book.

Goldilocks (different costume): Red and Wolfie sitting in a tree.

Thumbelina: (different costume) K-i-s-s-i-n-g! [They run off giggling.]

Leader Of The Pack Rapunzel: Hush girls, is she really going out with him? Rose: Well, there she is. Let's ask her. Willow: Red, is that Wolfie’s ring you're wearing? Red: Mm-hmm Rapunzel: Gee, it must be weird hanging with him Juniper: Is he picking you up at your grandma’s today? Red: Uh-uh Elsa: By the way, where'd you meet him? Red: I met him in the redwood forest He turned around and smiled at me You get the picture? (yes, we see) That's when I fell for (the leader of the pack) He sort of smiled and kissed me goodbye My tears were beginning to show

I couldn’t let him slink away into the night I loved him so I looked through the woods where did he go I didn’t know, so now you know I kept a Look out! kept a Look out! Look out! [During the lookouts, Wolfie enters, everyone is frightened.] Wolfie: She tried to help me that’s when I knew Red: Although he’s a wolf he’s still true blue Wolfie: She knows I’ll be right here, she has nothing to fear Red: That’s why I fell for (the leader of the pack) Juniper: Well, I guess any friend of your’s is a friend of ours.

They approach cautiously and some of them shake his paw.

Maria: Will you be able to get away, Rapunzel?

Rapunzel: I hope so. I haven’t seen the witch today.

Elaine: The witches wouldn’t have the nerve to show up at King Cole’s ball.

Catherine: You never know with witches! They have no manners.

Diana: Come on ladies, let’s go get ready for the dance!

Rose: I’m so excited, (band name) is going to be playing tonight!

Willow: Bye Rapunzel, I hope you can make it.

Ladies in Waiting, Red and Wolfie exit. Prince Charming gallops on a stick horse through the house unnoticed.

Rapunzel: I better start brushing my hair!

Charming stops and hides behind an audience member. Jack and Snowy enter also unnoticed by Rapunzel.

Snowy: Look Jack!

Jack: It’s my mother!

McFry enters with his produce wagon.

McFry: (awkwardly) Spinach delivery from McFry’s farm.

Rapunzel: Oh, my godmother will be home soon, if you want to wait.

McFry: Oh well (shyly) I can just leave it.

Rapunzel: You going to the dance tonight?

McFry: Yes, I suppose, well, I’m not much of a dancer. But McFry’s farm will be providing apples to the guests.

Gingerwitch, Granny, Biff and Queenie approach.

Granny: (to McFry) Get along boy!

Biff: Yeah McFry, you heard my Granny. Why don’t you make like a tree and scram?

McFry: Do you want this? [He holds up the spinach.]

Gingerwitch: Give me that! [Snatches it from his hands.]

McFry hurries off.

Gingerwitch: Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair so I can make sure it’s still all there.

Rapunzel: Yes Godmother. [She lets down her hair.]

Gingerwitch: Oh, it’s so smooth. Have you been brushing it?

Rapunzel: No. It’s probably just that new conditioner.

Gingerwitch: You weren’t planning on going anywhere, were you?

Rapunzel: No, no. Just planning on staying here, locked up in this tower.

Gingerwitch: Well, see that you do.

Queenie: Hold still, girlie. [She plucks a hair from Rapunzel’s head.]

Rapunzel: Ouch!

Queenie: We need this for a spell [catches herself] project we’re working on.

Gingerwitch: I’ll be home late. Don’t try anything sneaky.

Granny: Biff, stay here and guard Rapunzel. We can’t risk her falling in love with anyone until our spell [catches herself] project is complete.

Biff: Awww Granny, I was gonna go to the dance.

Granny: Be patient, Sugar Plum. If everything works as it should, you will be the one throwing those dances in no time! [Granny, Gingerwitch and Queenie exit.]

Biff: (sleazy) Hey Rapunzel. [He tugs on her hair.]

Rapunzel: Get your meathooks off of me. [Pulls her hair back up.]

Biff: You know, when we’re married, you won’t talk to me like that.

Rapunzel: We will never be married Biff.

Biff: That’s not what my Granny says.

Rapunzel: (idea dawns on her) Hey Biff, I have an idea. I won’t tell your Granny if you want to go to the dance tonight. It can be our little secret.

Biff: See, I knew you liked me!

Rapunzel: Yuk!

Biff: But you are kind of drippy. Promise you won’t tell my Granny.

Rapunzel crosses her heart. Biff exits. Lights on Jack and Snowy.

Jack: Wow! She told me she had a rough childhood, but I had no idea.

Prince Charming approaches the tower. Rapunzel has her back to Charming.

Charming: Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair, that I may climb your silken stair. I am Prince Charming. [Bows dramatically.]

Rapunzel: How do you know that incantation? The witch is the only one who climbs my hair.

Charming: I spied on her, fair maiden, and I must say, I am intrigued. May I climb your hair?

Rapunzel: Why on earth would you want to climb my hair?

Long and Winding Hair Prince: Your long and winding hair, that falls to the floor, Like landing gear my dear

I’ve seen it done before The witch is pretty near, and you have no door. Rapunzel: My long and winding hair, that falls to the floor, The hair that you should fear You’ve not seen this before The witch is pretty near, and I have no door. Prince: I’ve seen a lot of maidens fair, and damsels who need saving I am a prince, I’m very brave, and pretty good at braiding Rapunzel: I guess at least you asked ‘bout my long, winding hair I am a spectacle; my hair is like a show If I don’t cut my hair It grows to the floor Prince: I keep coming back to your long, winding hair Won’t leave you stranded here Let’s go to the dance Rapunzel & Prince Like landing gear it’s clear Time to take the chance Rapunzel: Well, I gotta admit, it would be pretty cool to go to the dance with a prince.

As she’s about to drop her hair, Gingerwitch re-enters.

Gingerwitch: Ah ha! I knew it! Hands off my Rapunzel! You will rue the day you spied on me and my charge! For your mistake you’ll spend your days as a frog!

Magic effects; Charming hops off.

Gingerwitch: As for you, this is how you repay me? After all I’ve done for you. I’ve told you time and time again: your hair is part of my plan!

Rapunzel: I’m sorry Godmother.

Gingerwitch: Now you stay where you belong. I don’t have time to worry about you. There’s work to be done. [She exits.]

Rapunzel: I have had enough of this! If everyone wants my hair so badly [takes out a scissors] they can have it! I’m going to the dance!

Act 2: Scene 4 Woods - 1950s Girls Night Out Younger scientists and younger Doc are picking at rocks. They are dressed like young 1950s grad students with pocket protectors, lab coats, thick nerd glasses, and dwarf hats. They are looking at rock samples. Happy: Good work Bashful. Don’t be such a pessimist. Let’s see what you found. Bashful: (handing over his sample) Aww, shucks. Dopey: I detect some heavy metals in this sample. Grumpy: I’m more for easy listening. Sleepy: Professor, I’m sleepy, can we break for a little rest? Doc: The cook packed us a snack, some milk and cookies. Doc takes some milk from a glass bottle and takes a swig and offers it to Sneezy. Sneezy, holding the milk bottle, sneezes a big sneeze, which propels him into the cauldron that’s hiding in the bushes. He spills some milk in the cauldron (dry ice effect). Sneezy: Achoo! I’m allergic to milk! Doc: (grabbing Sneezy and hugging him) That’s it Sneezy! Lactose, a simple milk sugar, may be one of the necessary ingredients for the time machine I’ve been working on. All we need now are a few heavy metals. Let’s keep mining scientists! Grumpy: Drat! (points to witches making an entrance) Look, over there! Doc: (to the Scientists) Physicists! Spooky actions at a distance! Everyone hide! Doc hides while the Scientists take off. Witches arrive and pull out their cauldron from the bushes. Granny: Let’s prepare the power potion. [They drag the cauldron out from hiding and perform some kind of ritual cleaning]. This silken hair will give me what I want! [Throws a thread in the pot.] Wealth!

Gingerwitch: These magic beans will give me what I need! [Throws a bean in the pot.] Power!

Queenie: These fresh green leaves will give me what I need! [Throws a handful of potpourri into the pot.] Youth and beauty! [Stirs potion around, ladles potion into a cup.] Every month at the new moon, we will perform this ritual!

Granny: We’ll show the town who’s in charge! Me and my grandson Biff will finally get the respect we deserve!

Gingerwitch: No more cowering to the King and all of his rules! [Drinks from the cup.]

Queenie: I will be the fairest in the land! [Drinks from the cup.]

Granny: We are gonna run this Valley! [Drinks from the cup. They all cackle.]

Girls Just Want To Have Fun (Queenie, Gingerwitch and Granny) I was told that ladies don’t fight Everyone said when will you learn to be nice That day it won’t ever come And girls, they want to have fun Oh girls just want to have fun Like to hang out in the middle of the night We cast our spells underneath the moon’s light You see me comin’ you better run Cuz girls, they want to have fun Oh girls just want to have That's all they really want Some fun We won’t stop until we know that we won Can’t push around because we’re number one Oh girls, they want to have fun Oh girls just want to have fun When I was a only a girl I knew I wasn’t like the rest of the world I wanted to be the powerful one Oh girls they want to have fun Oh girls just want to have Just wanna They just wanna...

Act 2: Scene 5 Outskirts - 1950s Should I Stay Or Should I Go Biff comes across Jack and Snowy, hides, overhears the talking. Jack: Well, I guess now that the beanstalk is chopped down the witch’s spell will be over by the time the moon is full.

Snowy: I hope the witches don’t cause too much damage till then. Say Jack. Do you think it would matter if we stayed here a little longer? Maybe long enough for one dance? By the time we get back to the future, our Under-the-Clocktower Dance will have ended.

Jack: I don’t know, Snowy

Snowy: What should we do?

Should I Stay Or Should I Go (Jack and Snowy) Maybe the Doc will never know Should we stay or should we go? One little dance should be just fine What if it messes space and time? So how are we supposed to know? Should we stay or should we go? Should we stay or should we go? Should we stay or should we go now? Should we stay or should we go now? If we go, there will be trouble And if we stay it will be double So come on and let me know Should we stay or should we go now? Jack: Let’s go, Snowy! Since we already cut down the beanstalk like the Doc asked, I don’t think we’ll have anything to worry about.

Snowy: As long as we don’t talk to our parents, we can go dance one dance, hop back in the the time machine, and get back to the future and stop Queenie!

Jack and Snowy exit. Biff waits until they leave and then searches the beanstalk for a bean, finds one, holds it up and studies it. Foreboding music and lighting effect. Puts it in his pocket and follows Jack and Snowy.

Act 2: Scene 6 Hill Lorenzo Valley - 1950s King Cole’s Castle The Dance A few HillVillies are present, pantomime talking, making gradual entrances, maybe some from the house. General fanfair. Jack and Snowy sneak in. The Page enters balcony. Page: Announcing his royal majesty King Cole! On the balcony, King Cole enters holding baby Snow White, waving at the crowd. The fairies are there too. Everyone applaudes and cheer. Snowy: Jack! Look, it’s my father! That’s me he’s holding!

King Cole: (calming them down) Citizens of Hill Lorenzo Valley, welcome to the first annual Under-The-Clocktower Dance! [He hands the baby over to the fairies.] The lovely little Princess Snow White will be playing with her guardians, the fairies, while the dance is under way. Please enjoy apples from McFry’s farm, and music from The Three Little Pigs, and The Fairies, accompanied by our court musicians the (name of band TBD). The festivities will begin shortly.

Everyone cheers!

Rapunzel enters from the house, almost a Cinderella-type entrance. Her hair is shorter and she wears a ball gown. Some of the girls whisper and point as she walks onstage. McFry is about to hand her an apple when a disheveled Biff runs in.

Rapunzel: Thank you! Would you like to dance with me?

Biff looks around for Jack and Snowy as Elaine grabs him and pulls him to the dance floor.

Elaine: Will you have the first dance with me, Biff?

Biff: (still looking for Snowy and Jack, sees Rapunzel) I already promised to dance with… [grabs Rapunzel] this lovely maiden. [Pulls her to the dance floor.]

Jack: Oh no! Mom, don’t dance with Biff! What’s wrong with you, Dad? Be assertive. (to Snowy) Snowy, we have to do something.

Snowy: Remember what the Doc said, don’t talk to anybody.

Quiet, slow 1950s music, and a few couples dance including Biff and Rapunzel.

Jack: (to McFry) Hi there, are you George McFry?

McFry: Um yes, I guess so, yes.

Music ends and Rose grabs Biff to dance at the other end of the stage. Rapunzel comes over to Jack, Snowy and McFry.

Jack: I’m Jack and this is my sister, Snow (catches himself) Jill. We’re from The Valley of the Scotts and we’ve heard about your produce.

McFry: You have?

Rapunzel: (to Jack) Did you say you were from the Valley Of The Scotts? How exotic. I’ve never been anywhere. Can you show us how the kids in The Valley Of The Scotts cut a rug?

Snowy: Before you dance, can you show me where I can powder my nose?

Snowy pulls Rapunzel away.

Jack: (to McFry) George! It’s not really about produce. I have a message from that girl Rapunzel. She’s crazy about you.

McFry: She’s crazy?

Jack: She thinks you're the cat’s pajamas!

McFry: She does?

Jack: You have to ask her to dance, when the music starts.

McFry: Oh, I don’t think I can do that.

Jack: Dad, uh, daddy-o. That young woman is your destiny.

McFry: My density?

Light on Rapunzel and Snowy who have moved across stage.

Snowy: I don’t really need to powder my nose. I have an important message from Farmer McFry.

Rapunzel: (confused) You do?

Snowy: He really likes you. He wants to dance with you but he’s kind of shy. He said you’re his destiny.

Rapunzel: He said that?

Music begins. McFry crosses to Rapunzel.

McFry: (to Rapunzel) May I have this dance?

McFry sings as couples take the floor. Rapunzel (Earth Angel) McFry: (oh, oh, oh, oh, wah-ah-ah, oh, oh, oh, oh) Rapunzel, Rapunzel Will you be mine?

Witches: You're gonna do everything we say So better move out of our way We’re in charge and that’s a fact Yeah Old King Cole it’s time to pack That’s the deal He’s gonna fade away That’s the deal He’s gonna fade away After song, Granny and Gingerwitch drag King and baby Princess out to balcony. Back is to audience. Everyone gasps and it quickly becomes quiet. Jack pulls Snowy away, and they exit in a follow spot through the house, followed by Biff. Queenie: King Cole will be enslaved in my mirror, forced to tell me the truth, that I am the fanciest in the land! [Witches cackle.] As for the Princess, she will grow up as my servant. She will sleep in the barn with the animals, and dress in rags! Not very fancy now! Queenie, Gingerwitch and Granny make their way to the floor. They are joined by the Ladies in Waiting. Fancy Queenie: First things first we’re the meanst Housewives on the block Can you feel it? I’m in the wicked stepmother business I can wear a crown like I’m givin’ lessons in meanness You should fear a bad witch like this (ha) All of you will obey my wish Checkout my place and get a load of this That girl, won’t ever be as fair as this (fair as this!)

Witches cackle again. Fairies appear on balcony. Flora: (shaking fist at witches) You will never get away with this! Queenie: Foolish fairies, you have no power over us. Fly on home before we clip your wings. Fauna: Nonsense, you have no power over us either and everyone knows it. Merryweather: The power of love always prevails. Be strong, HillVillies, keep the memory of King Cole and Snow White alive. Love for real won’t fade away. Music refrain. Act 2: Scene 7 Outside the Castle Biff’s Beans Jack and Snowy are in front of the curtain. Biff is following them. Jack: We better get back to the future and see about Doc. Snow: You're right Jack. Imagine, even one little bean could hold so much power! Thank goodness the beanstalk is has been chopped down. Jack: I think Doc will be proud. [They exit.] Biff takes the bean out of his pocket and examines it. Biff: Power? From a little bean? [Pops it in his mouth. Music and effects to indicate he’s transforming into a giant.] Act 2: Scene 8 Outskirts of Biff Valley - Alternate Present Land Of The Giants Sign that says “Biff Valley - Trespassers will be smushed.” Smashed houses. The three mice run in being chased by the three kittens. The mice have no tails. Brie: Look out! They’re closing in on us. Iris: It's so much harder to keep my balance without a tail.

Script and Lyrics by: Janinne Chadwick c. 2015 For Little People’s Repertory Theatre

48

Minnie: That old farmer’s wife doesn’t need a tail. Muffy: Come out, come out, wherever you are! Hear mousie, mousie, mousie. Scruffy: Come on, you dirty rats! It’s only a matter of time. Fluffy: We are mean when we’re hungry! And we’re hungry! The Bears enter carrying knapsacks and are heading out of town. Goldilocks and Baby Bear are walking together. Father Bear: Come on Baby Bear, we have a long way to go before we reach the Valley Of The Scotts. Baby Bear: Why do we have to go so far? Mother Bear: Now Baby bear, we’ve told you. There’s just not enough porridge here in Hill Lorenzo Valley. If we stay here we’ll starve. Baby Bear: Can Goldilocks come with us? Goldilocks: (taking his hands) Bye Baby Bear. I’m sorry I teased you, it was only because it was fun to play with you. Maybe I can come visit you some day. Baby Bear: I’ll share my porridge with you if you do. Goldilocks: That sounds just right. They wave as bears exit. Frogs hop into scene ribiting. Polly: Mama, I’m hot and thirsty!

Molly: I want to go swimming!

Phyllis: Now kids you know there’s a drought. We have to conserve water.

Flo: What’s a drought?

Fifi: A drought is a water shortage.

Phyllis: Caused by a thirsty Giant and his Granny.

Script and Lyrics by: Janinne Chadwick c. 2015 For Little People’s Repertory Theatre

49

Fergie: I hate to leave our home, but what can we do?

Fiona: Frogs gotta swim.

Phyllis: I hope you have better luck finding a pond or an old well in The Valley of the Scotts.

Frankie: We’ll be back to let you know if we find water.

Franny: Bye bye, safe travels! [The frogs exit.] Pigs busking for change. Hipster Pig is picking a guitar and Realtor Pig is shaking a cup. They sing. Heart Of Gold Pigs: We used to live Like little pigs But now the giant’s taken all the gold He and his Granny are really big They keep on hoarding everybody’s gold And it’s gettin old. They keep on hoarding everybody’s gold And it’s getting old. Bo Peep walks by. Humpty Dumpty: Can you spare some change? Bo Peep: Sorry, since my sheep left the valley for greener pastures, I’m barely scraping by myself. Realtor Pig: I wish we could afford to move to a more desirable neighborhood. Hipster Pig: Ahh, this isn’t so bad. Livin’ under the stars, no attachments. I’m actually thinking of knitting a house. Realtor Pig: There's absolutely no resale value in a knit house. (shivering) Brrrrr. I could use a knit house about now. It’s getting chilly out here.

Script and Lyrics by: Janinne Chadwick c. 2015 For Little People’s Repertory Theatre

Barbie Pig: (opens her Barbie travel case) I have 7 knit houses, one for each day of the week! I just call them sweaters. Clomping is heard from offstage.

Barbie Pig: Oh no! The Giant!

Pigs take cover, Humpty Dumpty falls off the wall.

Biff: (entering) Fe fi fo fum, McFry, when will my dinner come?!?

Act 2: Scene 9 Giant’s Castle - Alternate Present In The Giant's Castle Giant and Granny are sitting on thrones, eating beans out of a large chip-type bag. McFry is below, cooking. Jack and Snowy are behind McFry. Action is in three places. Biff: McFry! We need more beans, we’re hungry!

Snowy: Where are we, Jack? Everything is different. Are you sure you set the time machine for the right date?

Jack: I’m positive.

Snowy: But Jack, we cut down the beanstalk!

Jack: Biff must have found some beans. Maybe he overheard us talking.

McFry: Coming Biff! I’m bringing your dinner now.

Granny: Did you use a lot of beans? You know we need our beans!

Biff: Yeah bean head! You heard Granny, we need our beans! [He dumps the crumbs of the chip bag onto the floor.]

Granny: Rapunzel, Rapunzel, come clean up this mess.

Jack’s Mom enters with a broom; she has long grey hair. She runs in right past Snowy and grabs Jack.

Rapunzel: Yes ma’m, coming. [Snowy ducks.] Jack, there you are! Lazy boy. Biff has been waiting to hear his story again. The history of Biff Valley is on the coffee table. Go read it to him. When you’re done, start dragging up his bags of gold, you know how he likes to count them every night after supper. [She starts up the beanstalk.]

Script and Lyrics by: Janinne Chadwick c. 2015 For Little People’s Repertory Theatre

Jack: Okay, I’ll be right there.

Snowy: What are we going to do?

Jack: Snowy, you gotta find Doc and the scientists! I’ll come as soon as I can. Be careful!

Act 2: Scene 10 Biff Valley - Alternate Present Snow White Has Been Sedated Gingerbread Jail is a supermax prison, the produce stand is Biffmart. Snowy enters and looks around. Father Bear is standing in front of Biffmart.

Red: (to Snowy) Welcome to Biffmart.

Mother Bear: (with Baby Bear) Come baby, there’s a sale on porridge.

Shoe Mother: (with Thumbelina and Goldilocks) I have a two for one coupon.

Snowy: I’m looking for Doc, the scientist, do you know where I might find him?

Red: He’s in jail. [Points to Gingerbread Jail.] Along with half the town, including my husband. [Snowy looks at her confused.] You know that Snowy.

Snowy: Oh, right, what was I thinking.

Wolfie: (from jail howls) Awooooo! (Might blues riff a jail tune)

Snowy approaches the jail where the Sheriff and Huntsmen are standing guard. Various characters are standing in line.

Sheriff: Visiting hours are between 3 and 5.

Snowy: I guess I’ll just wait.

Joey: Join the club.

Old Mother Hubbard: Hey, no cuts. Get to the end of the line!

Markie: Yeah, we’ve been waiting for hours.

Miss Muffett: Watch out, you’re stepping on my tuffet.

An old woman (Queenie in disguise) approaches Snowy.

52

Queenie: You look hungry, girlie would you my last apple? It’s a beauty, just like you.

Snowy: Why thank you kindly, I am hungry.

Huntsmen are shaking their heads in warning. Snowy takes a bite and falls down. Queenie throws off her disguise.

Queenie: At last, competition eliminated! I am the fairest and fanciest in the land! Mind your own business peasants! Nothing more to see here. [Makes a dramatic exit.]

Sid: It was the Queen!

Johnny: Someone, get help quick!

Dee Dee: The apple was poison! Markie: How could anyone do this? Patti: She’s fading fast!

Souxie: Somebody save the Princess!

Joan: Help!

Goldilocks: Oh no, poor Snow White! Shoe Mother: Stand back children, give the Princess some room! Snow White Has Been Sedated (Huntsmen, Sheriff, HillVillies, Doc, Scientists, Red, Wolfie, Kittens and Mice) We don’t have many more minutes to go Snow White has been sedated Her heart’s still beating but her breathing is slow Snow White has been sedated Just get someone to help her She doesn’t look the same Why’d she have to do this The queen must be deranged Oh oh oh oh oh Fe fe fe fe fafa fa fa fa Snow White has been sedated Fe fe fe fe fafa fa fa fa Snow White has been sedated

Bo Peep: Hurry, we’re about to lose her! Fairies appear. Flora: Oh dear! Back off everyone, Princess down! Fauna: Better check her vitals! Merryweather: There’s only one thing that can help Snowy. True loves kiss. Giant stomping from off stage. Everyone: Look out, the Giant! Red: Oh no! Here we go again! Take cover! Gingerbread Man: Run, run, as fast as you can! He can’t catch me! I’m the Gingerbread Man! Jack enters as if being chased by the giant. Biff: (off stage) Fe fum fo fi, come back here little Jack McFry. Wrecking Ball Granny: We stomped, we smashed, We squished, we crashed We laughed while everybody cried Our beanstalk climbs up to the sky Our power no one could deny Because we are large We are in charge We do what we want to do We live in the sky so run for your life We do what I want to Biff: (swinging in on a wrecking ball) I came in like a wrecking ball I’m swinging from the clouds above

Script and Lyrics by: Janinne Chadwick c. 2015 For Little People’s Repertory Theatre

54

All I wanted to do is break your stuff All I ever do is wreck things Yeah, we, wreck things I came in like a wrecking ball I’m swinging from the clouds above All I wanted to do is break your stuff All I ever do is wreck things Yeah, we, wreck things. (Repeat) Biff: Where did he go, that little McFry? Granny: Come out little man! Fauna: He went that way! Giants stomp off and slowly HillVillies run off. Besides prisoners, scientists and Doc, who can be seen from windows, fairies and Jack and Snowy are left. Doc: (from the jail window) Jack, come out, the coast is clear! Jack: (runs to the jail window, Doc and scientists are holding bars) Doc! Professors! What happened ? Where are we? Doc: It was Biff! Jack notices Snowy and reacts quickly by getting onto his knees and taking her hand in his. Jack: Snowy! What happened to you? [He looks up to Doc.] Bashful: (yelling) A poison apple! Jack kisses her hand and she wakes up. Snowy: Jack! Doc! What’s happening? Doc: When you were in the past, Biff stole a magic bean and must have found out about it’s power and about the time machine. Biff must have altered the present when you were in the past. Snowy: When we were at the dance!

Script and Lyrics by: Janinne Chadwick c. 2015 For Little People’s Repertory Theatre

55

Doc: You were at the dance? Jack: Sorry Doc, we thought we could just have one dance unnoticed. Snowy: We were wrong. Doc: Listen carefully! This is very important. Jack, you and Snowy have to go to the past and prevent the beanstalk from taking root. (to Snowy) That was a close call, it’s a good thing Jack saved you. Merryweather: True loves kiss. Fauna: Works every time. Flora: He saved you for now, Snow White, but I’m afraid it’s only a matter of time before the witch discovers you’re still alive. Shhh, look! Queenie and Mirror from up in the balcony. Queenie: Mirror, mirror on a stand, who’s the fairest in the land? Mirror: Though you gave us quite a fright, once again it is Snow White. Doc: Hurry kids! Queenie reacts! Jack and Snowy run. Act 2: Scene 11 Woods/DeLorean - 10,000 BP Stranded A few rocks, no clocktower; maybe a canvas screen with primeval forest projected. Jack and Snowy exit DeLorean. Jack: Where are we? Snowy: Jack, look! [Points to four cave people who are approaching. Two have clubs, one has a stick and one has a basket of seeds.] Quick, hide! They hide behind a rock. The cave people start to dig when one wanders over to the DeLorean.

Cave Person 1: Uga buga! Others drop their tools and go to the DeLorean. They explore and one by one pull off the wheels. They roll them and one holds a wheel up to the sky in a 2001 Space Odyssey kind of moment as the band plays the theme song. Cave people exit excitedly. Jack and Snowy come out from behind the rock and run to the car. Snowy: Oh no, Jack, we’re stranded! Jack: (notices the basket of beans and points) Look! The magic beans! Tardis flies in. Doc and Einstein exit Tardis. Snowy: It’s Doc! Jack: And Einstein! You found us! Einstein: MOO! Jack and Einstein hug! Doc: (calls into the Tardis) Come on Professors! A quick rest stop to stretch your legs. Happy exits first, followed by Grumpy, Dopey, Sneezy and Bashful. Happy: I’m so happy my molecular structure is back in place! Grumpy: Molecular displacement gives me a headache! Dopey: (picking at rock samples) Judging from this sedimentary rock sample, we are in the late Pleistocene era. Sneezy: (takes a big breath) Achoo! Doc: (calls into Tardis) Wake up, Professor Sleepy! Sleepy exits yawning. Sleepy: Are we there yet? Jack: (pointing at Tardis) What’s this?

Script and Lyrics by: Janinne Chadwick c. 2015 For Little People’s Repertory Theatre

Bashful: That’s a Tardis. Snow: A What? Doc: The Tardis? This is another time travelling device I’ve been working on. It travels between parallel realities and inter-dimensional travel.

Hit The Road, Jack

Doc: Let’s hit the road, Jack We can’t come back here No more, no more, no more, no more Scientists: Let’s hit the road, Jack We can’t come back here no more Jack, Snowy, Einstein: What'd you say Let’s hit the road, Jack Can’t come back here no more Old witches, old witches, why’d they treat us so mean They’re the meanest old witches there have ever been Jack, Snowy: Well I guess if you say so I'll have to pack my things and go Scientists: (that's right) Hit the road, Jack, and don't cha come back No more no more no more no more Hit the road, Jack, and don't cha come back No more Jack, Snow, Einstein: What'd you say Doc: Let’s hit the road, Jack, and don't cha come back No more Doc holds the door as everyone gets in the Tardis. Doc: Prepare for temporal displacement! [The Tardis exits.] All kids in the aisle, fairies in balcony during set change. All Good People Fairies: Let’s see all good people in this fairy tale Go back in time to save the day Let’s see all good people in this fairy tale Go back in time to save the day

Willow: Are you a real prince? Charming: Of course! Elsa: Do you have a crown? Rose: Is it made of gold? Other Ladies in Waiting are in line buying produce from Farmer McFry and Jack’s Mom. Humpty Dumpty is back in one piece. Pig houses are in place. Mother Goose: Hey diddle diddle, the cat and the fiddle, the cow jumped over the moon. [Audience of kittens and mice applaud.] Muffy: I just love your work. Will you autograph my copy? [Hands her book to sign.] Scruffy: You really know how to identify with your reader. Fluffy: I hope there will be a sequel.

Hansel and Gretel at Gingerbread house selling treats to Red and Wolfie. Sign reads “Hansel and Gretel's Bakery”. Gretel: Two gingerbread cookies and a loaf of fresh bread. Hansel: That will be two gold pieces. Wolfie: (with Red, strolling by the Gingerbread house) Here’s three, keep the change. [Gives a cookie to Red.] Red: Thank you Wolfie. You know I’ve always had a sweet tooth. Queenie: Mirror, mirror on the wall, who’s the Fanciest of them all. Mirror bursting out.

The witch and her evil reign has at last come to an end! Crowd cheers. Page: Long live King Cole and Princess Snow White! Queenie is an old hag. Snow White as a princess sings with her dad.

While witches filled with greed My daughter brave and strong, Helped to right these wrongs So old King Cole Could lead the people where they need to go And our Kingdom will grow At last we’ve reached the end of our show That's why we want you to know I'm starting with the man in the mirror So happy I can change my ways And no message could have been any clearer If you want to make the world a better place Take a look at yourself, and then make a change Snowy: I've been a victim of an evil witch Now she’s reached her demise They have taken our homes, not a farthing to loan It was awful to see father slave to a crone Fairies and Pigs: The children worked so hard, they tried with all their hearts And they found their dream They traveled across the light ya see 'Cause we wanted everyone to be free All: That's I’m starting with me We’re starting with the face in the mirror (oh yeah) We’re asking it to change its ways (now change) And no message could have been any clearer If you want to make the world a better place Take a look at yourself, and then make a change Change! The end. Curtain call.
