Snippets of What We've Created

The Following are scenes from the After School Plays we're performing this June, written and performed by the kids

"THE SQUARE HEAD AND I", SCENE 2:
On Tishonka and WitCo Airlines
Buddy:  I sure hope nobody sits between us.

In walks Norman, a large individual with a strangely square head.  He pushes his way into his seat between Buddy and the other passenger.

Over the Loud Speaker:  Welcome to today's flight.  It is a full flight, so please stop asking for open seats.  For our meal service, in First Class, anything you want.  In coach, moldy bread.

Cue fashion model, walking in, talking loudly on her cell phone, looking at Norman in disgust.

Fashion Model:  To Norman. That outfit is hideous.  To the person on the cell phone.  Oh, no, not you darling, though that outfit was hideous.  Oh, I don't know, some enormously fat bloke with a huge square head.

Norman:  Hey, it's just a haircut.  Everything on stage freezes and Norman stands up.  It's not a hair cut.

SONG: MY HEAD IS SQUARE (by the Dirty Sock Funtime Band)
My head is square (His head is square)
It ain't no fair (It ain't no fair)
It's really rare (It's really rare)
Unless you count mon petit freire


"DONUT-A-LICIOUS", SCENE 4: 
Donut Princess Josephine: Boy, where are we?

Donut Princess Josephina: A mess or a giant garbage can.

Donut Princess Josephine: Look at how dirty the ceiling is, it’s all covered in dust, I don’t even think this place has a real roof!

Donut Princess Josephina: Why did the popcorn man send us here?

Donut Princess Josephine: I am really smart but that is a question I have no idea what the answer is.

Suddenly, the place becomes alive. It turns out it's a Secret Laboratory.

SONG: Secret Laboratory (by the Dirty Sock Funtime Band)
THERE IS A PLACE WHERE MONKEY’S LIKE TO TALK
AND MAGIC POTIONS GROW ON TREES NOT A BEAN STALK
HYPNOTIZING MACHINES ON THE SIDEWALK
IT’S A SECRET LABORATORY


"LEGENDS OF THE FAT CASTLE", SCENE 1:

Wizard: Ahh! I got you! (Wizard captures the Princess Frog) I’m going to smash you and grind up your bones and turn you into soup! Ha ha ha!

Princess Frog: No! Let me go! Please!

Wizard: Oh, okay.

(Wizard lets Princess Frog go for a count of 3 and captures her again)

SONG: I'M SO SUPER BORED (By Jon Roberts and the kids of PS 191)

I'm so super bored (Super bored! Super bored! Super Bored!!!)

I wanna play a chord and then I wanna roar
I wanna find my friends at the super store

I'm so super bored (Super bored! Super bored!)
I'm so super bored (Super bored! Super bored! Super Bored!!!)
