SCRIPT:
Narrator: In the bottom of the blue ocean there was a palace where the Sea King, an old man with a white beard, lived. The palace was a splendid mansion whose walls were built of coral and the roof was formed of shells.
Sea King: Red Shrimp! Have you seen my daughters lately?
Red Shrimp: Yes, they were going out of the sea to watch the ships passing by.
Sea King: What about the youngest?
Red Shrimp: She is in her room.
Sea King: Very good, she is not allowed to go with her sisters out of the sea. She is still too young.
Narrator: The Little Mermaid was very beautiful. She loved to sing, and when she sang all the fish from the sea came to listen to her beautiful songs. Sea shells would open showing their pretty pearls, and the jellyfish would stop floating. One day she was talking to her grandmother.
Little Mermaid: Oh, grandmother, I wish I could go out of the sea to watch the sky. Everybody says that it is so beautiful. And how much I would like to hear the voices of men and smell the perfume of flowers!
Grandmother: You are still too young. In a couple of years, when you are fifteen years old, the king will let you go out of the sea, just like your sisters do.
Little Mermaid: I want to know the people that live in the world up there. My sisters have told me a lot of stories.
Grandmother: Stop dreaming. It’s time for you to go and take care of the garden. And remember to feed the dolphins and the sea horses.
Little Mermaid: Dolphins are great company and they like to play with me, but the sea horses don´t like me that much!
Grandmother: Anyway, go now, it’s getting late.
Little Mermaid: Good-bye, grandmother.
Grandmother: Good-bye, my child.
Narrator: When it was her fifteenth birthday, she couldn’t sleep all night. Next morning her father told her.
Sea King: Very well, my precious daughter, you can now go out of the sea and breath the fresh air and see the sky! Just remember this… that world is not our world. We can only admire it. We don´t have a soul, like humans do. We belong to the sea. Be careful and don’t get near people. You can get in trouble!
Little Mermaid: Yes father!
Narrator: So the Little Mermaid kissed her father good-bye and started swimming away.
Little Mermaid: I feel so happy! I have to swim as fast as I can!
Fish: Wait! We are going with you!
Little Mermaid: Ha, ha, ha, ha, try to catch me if you can!
Narrator: Then she finally got out of the water.
Little Mermaid: This is so fascinating! The blue sky is so beautiful.
Fish: Yes it is.
Little Mermaid: What is that big yellow circle over there?
Fish: That is the sun! …. And those are sea gulls!
Little Mermaid: This is wonderful! Everything is so beautiful.
Narrator: Then they saw a ship. The sailors threw the the anchor to the water.
Little Mermaid: I can hear their voices. I wish I could talk to them! But….I don’t have legs. I will never be like them!
Narrator: Aboard the ship the sailors were dancing and celebrating.
Sailor: Hooray for our captain! Happy twentieth birthday!
Narrator: At that moment the Little Mermaid saw the young man.
Little Mermaid: Oh, he is so handsome, and he looks very happy! I can´t stop looking at him!
Fish: A storm is coming, look at the black sky.
Little Mermaid: Oh, I can feel the strong waves…. And the thunder…… Oh, the ship… Be careful! The sea!
Narrator: But nobody heard her screaming. The wind was strong, and the waves were so high that they rocked the ship. A dreadful storm was approaching.
Little Mermaid: Be careful! The sea!
Narrator: In vain she kept shouting. The sailors were screaming, the ship lights were extinguished,and the ship kept rocking up and down. Then the ship layed over on her side, the water rushed in, and the ship finally sank. Then he saw the captain sinking.
Little Mermaid: I have to help him!
Narrator: And she started swimming toward the young man. He took him by the hand and pulled him out of the water. He was unconscious. He held his head above the water and let the waves drift them where they would. In the morning the sun rose up red and glowing from the water.
Little Mermaid: I have to take him to the beach.
Narrator: So she swam with the handsome prince to the beach, which was covered with fine, white sand, and there she laid him in the warm sunshine. She stayed there for awhile holding his hands. Then she heard people talking, she kissed him in a hurry and swam out farther from the shore and placed herself between some high rocks that rose out of the water; then she covered her head and neck with the foam of the sea so that her little face might not be seen, and watched to see what would become of the poor prince.
Girl 1: Run! Run! There’s a man in the beach!
Girl 2: He’s alive! Oh, poor man, it was the storm! Let’s take him to the castle!
Girl 3: No! No! Let’s get help!
Narrator: The young man woke up, and he saw one of the girls, the one that was the most beautiful, and told her.
Prince: Thank you for saving me!
Narrator: The little mermaid saw that the young man was going to the castle with the three girls. But he didn’t know that it was her who saved him, and not the other girl.
Little Mermaid: I must go home now…. and leave him there. Oh… that was the most wonderful time I have spent … holding him in my arms!
Narrator: When she got to her palace she went straight to her room, and started to cry. She stayed there for many days without wanting to see anybody, and without eating.
Little Mermaid: Oh, I am in love, and I know that I will never marry him! I have to do something… but who could help me?
Narrator: Desperately she started thinking what to do. Then she remembered the Sea Witch.
Little Mermaid: She is the only one who can help me! But… at what price? Anyway… I will go see her.
Narrator: When she arrived to the castle of the Sea Witch, she said.
Sea Witch: I know what you want! It is very foolish of you, and your decision will bring you sorrow. . . my pretty princess.
Little Mermaid: I just want to get rid of my fish’s tail…
Sea Witch: I suppose you want legs . . like human beings on earth. Right?
Little Mermaid: Yes, I want the young prince to fall in love with me.
Sea Witch: Very well! But you will suffer. Everytime you walk, you will feel a terrible pain, as if a sword were passing through you.
Little Mermaid: I don’t care! I just want to be with him again!
Sea Witch: I haven´t finish yet! I must be paid! You must give me your beautiful and sweet voice, you will not charm the prince with it, your will not speak or sing, you will remain speechless forever! … But remember, if the man you love fells in love with another woman, your body will disappear in the water just like the foam of the waves.
Little Mermaid: But if you take away my voice… what is left for me?
Sea Witch: Your beautiful body, your graceful walk, and your pretty eyes. Do you want more?
Little Mermaid: I accept! Give me the magic potion.
Narrator: Then she went to the beach and drank the potion. Suddenly a strong pain made her unconscious. When she woke up she saw the prince beside her.
Prince: Don’t be afraid. You are safe. Where do you come from?
Narrator: But she could not speak.
Prince: I will take you to the palace and take care of you until you get well.
Narrator: For a few days her life changed. The prince gave her wonderful dresses, and she was his companion.
Prince: Tonight you will go with me to a party. I know that you can´t talk, but I can see in your eyes that you are happy here.
Narrator: And she was very happy, but every movement from her legs caused her great pain, just as the sea witch told her. But that was the price she was paying for being with her loved prince. That night the prince said.
Prince: I have to tell you something. One day I was rescued by a beautiful girl, and since that day she has been in my heart and in my mind. But I never saw her again, she returned to her country.
Little Mermaid: (thinking) Oh…it was me who rescued you! But I can’t tell you!
Prince: I feel very good with you, but I can´t forget her.
Narrator: When she heard those words she went running toward the beach and started crying.
Prince: Wait! .. please, I didn’t mean to…
Narrator: But it was late, she was not there, with him. One day they were in one of the towers of the palace, when the prince saw that a big ship was approaching.
Prince: Look! There’s a ship approaching. Let’s see who is coming.
Narrator: And when the people was coming down from the ship he was surprised.
Prince: Oh, it’s her! She came back to me!
Little Mermaid: (thinking) Oh, I feel a terrible pain in my heart. I am sure I will lose him forever.
Narrator: And she did, because the prince and the girl got married. A few days after the wedding they were invited for a trip on a ship and she also went with them.
Little Mermaid: (thinking) I lost him forever! And now just as the sea witch said, I will disappear in the ocean.
Narrator: Then she heard someone calling her from the sea water.
Four Sisters: Little Mermaid! Little Mermaid! It´s us, your sisters! Look…. We have a potion, the sea witch gave it to us… in exchange for our hairs. Give the potion to the prince, he will then vanish, and you will be a mermaid again!
Narrator: The Little Mermaid took the potion and went to the Prince´s room where he was sleeping, while her sisters returned to the deep sea.
Little Mermaid: (thinking) I can’t do this… I love you so much… I will just kiss you and leave forever.
Narrator: After kissing the prince she threw herself into the sea.
Little Mermaid: (thinking) I want to disappear and turn into foam… good-bye my love.
Narrator: When she turned to see the ship for the last time, suddenly a mysterious force got her out of the water and took her to the sky, and she felt the warmth of the sun. Then she heard some voices that sounded like tiny bells.
Wind Fairies: Little Mermaid! Little Mermaid! Come with us!
Little Mermaid: Who are you? Where are you?…. oh, I can speak again!
Wind Fairies: You are with us in the sky. We are the Wind Fairies. We don´t have a soul like humans do, but it’s our responsibility to help those who have been kind to them.
Narrator: The Little Mermaid looked down at the sea where the ship was, and started to cry.
Wind Fairies: Look! The flowers of the earth receive our tears and turned them into morning dew. Come with us! We will help mankind wherever we are, and we will be part of their happiness. With your heart, you have done the same efforts that we have done, you have suffered and you have passed the test, now you are a wind spirit, here you actions can get you an immortal soul.
Narrator: The Little Mermaid raised her arms to the sky and cried. Then she saw the ship, the prince and his beautiful bride, and said.
Little Mermaid: You can’t hear me or see me, I will always love you, and I wish you happiness.
Narrator: Then she kissed the prince, and left with the other wind fairies in a pink cloud floating through the air.

Aladdin: But… there´s a ring inside… I will put it on… anyway… he didn´t say anything about a ring.
Narrator: Then he went back to the door. When he was about to go out the wizard said.
Alin: Give me the lamp!
Narrator: Aladdin was surprised by the tone of his voice, and was suspicious.
Aladdin: I will give it to you as soon as I am out.
Alin: No! I just want the lamp!
Aladdin: Let me out, then I will give you the lamp!
Narrator: The wizard was angry at Aladdin and said.
Alin: I prefer to loose the lamp and its powers! You will stay there forever!
Narrator: Then he shut the door. Aladdin had no other choice but to go down the stairs where he sat on the floor and remained there for two days.
Aladdin: It´s so dark in here… and I am so cold.
Narrator: Then he rubbed his hands together, and suddenly he saw a bright light coming out from the ring. It was a genie.
Genie from the Ring: Master, I will do as you order!
Aladdin: Who are you?
Genie from the Ring: I am the slave from the ring. I will grant you all your wishes.
Aladdin: If that is true, then take me home.
Narrator: And in just a few second he was back home again.
At Aladdin´s House
Mother: Aladdin! I was worried about you! Where have you been?
Aladdin: Oh, mother… something terrible happened.
Narrator: And he told his mother about the wizard , the ring, and the lamp.
Mother: Aladdin, I am so sad. We don´t have money… not even to buy some food.
Aladdin: Don´t worry mother, the genie will help us.
Narrator: And he rubbed the ring again, and when the genie appeared he said.
Genie from the Ring: I am sorry… I can´t…
Aladdin: What do you mean… you can´t?
Genie from the Ring: I can only take you from one place to another.
Aladdin: If that is the case, then, I will sell the lamp!
Mother: Are you sure you want to do that?
Aladdin: Yes, we don´t have other choice.
Mother: Let me clean it then. It´s so dirty… maybe we can get more money if it looks like new.

Alin: I am so furious! Aladdin didn´t die inside the cave. I have to go back and get the lamp! I am sure he has it!
Narrator: As soon as he returned he disguised himself as a merchant and went to the palace where Aladdin and his wife were living.
At the Palace
Servant: What can I do for you?
Alin: I would like to talk to the princess.
Servant: Let me call her.
Narrator: As soon as the princess was before him, he said.
Alin: Would you like to exchange old lamps for new ones?
Princess: Well… indeed I have an old lamp. Let me bring it.
Narrator: As soon as the princess gave the lamp to Alin, he rubbed the lamp. And the Genie appeared.
Alin: Take me, the princess, and the palace to my homeland.
Genie: Your wish is an order to me!
Narrator: And he took them away. When the sultan knew about what had happened he was furious at Aladdin, and he had to tell him the truth,
Sultan: Very well… I will forgive you if in forty days you bring me my daughter back.
Aladdin: You know I will. I love her more than anything in the world.
Narrator: Aladdin was desperate, and didn´t know what to do. Then he remembered the Genie of the Ring. He rubbed the ring and the genie appeared.
Aladdin: Take me to where my wife is.
Narrator: In an instant they were in Africa, and Aladdin started looking for the princess, until he found her.
In Africa
Aladdin: My dear wife… what have they done to you?
Princess: Oh… Aladdin… this is like a nightmare!
Aladdin: I have to tell you he truth… come… sit over here… we have to talk.
Narrator: Aladdin told her what had happened, then he asked.
Aladdin: And… do you know where the lamp is?
Princess: That wicked wizard has it.
Aladdin: We have to think of something to get it back… I think I have a plan.
Princess: I am listening.
Narrator: That night the princess invited Alin to have dinner. But as always, he carried the lamp with him.
In a Restaurant
Alin: You look beautiful tonight princess!
Princess: Thank you… I think I need some fresh air… Let´s go to the balcony.
Alin: Take my hand…
Princess: But… do you have to take that lamp with you?
Alin: Well, no… not really.
Princess: Then leave it on the table. It looks so old and rusty that nobody will take it.
Alin: You´re right.
Narrator: Alin placed the lamp over the table and they went outside. As soon as they left, Aladdin took the lamp, then he went behind them, and when they were in the balcony, he pushed Alin, falling down from the balcony.

SCRIPT:
Narrator: A long time ago, King Arthur of England was captured while he was hunting in a forbidden land.
Soldier: Stop! You are not allowed to hunt in our land. Who gave you permission to do so?
King Arthur: Nobody.
Soldier: Then you must come with us. We will take you to our king.
Narrator: When king Marcus saw him he said.
King Marcus: You are an intrepid young man, but you must die because you violated our laws.
King Arthur: Do what you have to do.
King Marcus: I can also see that you are strong of character, and I like that. I will forgive you on one condition.
King Arthur: What is the prince I have to pay for my life?
King Marcus : I will give one year to find out the answer to a very difficult question.
King Arthur: What question?
King Marcus: I need to know what does a lady want?
King Arthur: That is an impossible question to answer. Not even the wisest man in my kingdom would have an answer to your question. But my life is worth it, I will give you the answer.
King Marcus: You are free to go now. And don´t forget… I´ll be waiting for you.
King Arthur: I will come back.
Narrator: King Arthur returned to kis kingdom and started questioning everybody. The princess, the queen, the priests, the wisemen, but no one had an answer. Then he asked one of the maids.
Maid: Well, people say there´s a witch living in the deep forest. They say that she is very smart, but evil. Why don´t you go and ask her?
King Arthur: So… you are also telling me to go and see the witch, and I supposed you know her…maybe she has already given you one of her spells.
Maid: I don´t know what you mean… but, did somebody else tell you about her?
King Arthur: The princess, and the queen also suggested that I should see her.
Maid: Then you must do it, maybe she´s the only one that can help you. But I must tell you, that the price you will pay, will be high.
King Arthur: If she has the answer, then I don´t care about the price.
Maid: Just don´t go alone, take your soldiers with you. She´s not a very pleasant person.
King Arthur: I will. Thank you for your advice.
Narrator: That same night King Arthur went to the old witch´s house. When he was about to knock, the witch opened the door.
Witch: I have been expecting you… I know that your time is running out.
King Arthur: If you already know why I´m here, then tell me the answer.
Witch: Are you willing to pay the price?
King Arthur: I will pay whatever I have to pay.
Witch: Then I assume that you accept the deal.
King Arthur: That´s right.
Witch: Now…there´s no turning back… I want to marry Gwain, your best friend.
King Arthur: Are you out of your mind! It makes me sick just to think of the idea of you marrying him!
Witch: You accepted the price… remember?
King Arthur: Have you seen yourself in a mirror? You´re ugly! You have only one tooth and you´re hunchbacked! You´re the most repulsive person I have ever seen! How can I ask my best friend to sacrifice because of me?
Witch: Talk to him… I know that you will come back.
Narrator: King Arthur had no choice but to talk to his friend.
Gwain: It´s not a sacrifice, you´re life is worth it.
King Arthur: You are truly my best friend. I could never in my whole life pay you for what you are doing for me.
Gwain: Tell her I accept and prepare everything. The wedding will be tomorrow.
Narrator: King Arthur returned to the witch´s house.
Witch: I will be ready, tomorrow after the wedding you will have your answer.
Narrator: When the wedding papers were signed, the witch said.
Witch: What a lady wants, is to be in charge of her own destiny.
Narrator: Everybody at the wedding was astonished, because they knew that it was true, and that King Arthur would now be safe. When King Marcus heard the news, he freed King Arthur. Meanwhile at the wedding Gwain was respectful and kind to the witch. But the guests, who were noblemen and maidens, had their own opinion.
Maiden 1: Look at the way she eats!
Maiden 2: I feel ashamed just to look ate her.
Maiden 3: Why does she have to eat with her bare hands.
Maiden 4: If we have spoons!
Maiden 1: Are you listening to the noise she does when she eats, or is it just my imagination?
Maiden 2: Poor Gwain! He´s so handsome!
Maiden 3: He is truly a good friend.
Maiden 4: Indeed he is.
Narrator: At that moment King Arthur decided that it was time for everybody to leave the couple alone, so everybody left. When Gwain was in his room, suddenly the door opened.
Gwain: Who are you?
Witch: I am your wife.
Gwain: My wife? What kind of joke is this?
Witch: It´s not a joke. It´s me, the old witch.
Gwain: But… you are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen! What happened to you?
Witch: You were kind to me. So, half of the time I will horrible, and the other half, I will be beautiful as you see me right now.
Gwain: I am speechless…
Witch: You must decide which one do you prefer during the day, and which one at night.
Gwain: Let me think… I will let you know my decision in a few hours.
Witch: Call me when you are ready.
Gwain: I will.
Narrator: When the witch left the room, Gwain went out to the forest near the castle just to think about what to do.
Gwain: What should I do? I would surely want an adorable young lady during the day for everybody to see, especially my friends… and at night obviously I would like a beautiful girl and not a horrible witch… or should I prefer the opposite?
Narrator: After a few minutes, Gwain took a decision, went back to the castle and straight to his room where his wife was already waiting.
Witch: What is your answer?
Gwain: I will let you choose.
Witch: Very well then… I will be a beautiful lady during the day and also at night, because you have shown me respect and you are allowing me to be in charge of my own life.
Narrator: And they lived happily forever.
