WHY
IS THIS PLAY BEST FOR YOUR SCHOOL?
Written
especially for young people to perform.
While
you may find large cast plays from other publishers, most of those
were originally written for adults or
professional actors to
perform. They often contain difficult dialogue, unfamiliar or
complex language, and speeches too long for young children to
memorize. They may even contain jokes, innuendos and subject matter
that may not be appropriate for children.
Easy
to understand and memorize.
Dialogue
is simple, fresh, quick and humorous, keeping the action flowing
without stops and starts between scenes. This keeps young people and
young audiences engaged throughout the performance - no awkward
pauses, no dead-time, no wiggles!
Everyone
participates!
All
children are involved throughout the performance. This builds
confidence, promotes team spirit and eliminates rehearsal rowdiness.
The audience is often asked to join in the fun, and action often
spills into the aisles! All of our SCHOOL PLAYS give suggestions on
how to divide up large parts (such as Snow White or Cinderella) among
several performers so that no one child is the "star".
Familiar
stories with upbeat endings.
The
story line stays as close as possible to the familiar story the kids
already know. While some authors feel the need to
"improve" the story, our SCHOOL PLAYS stay as close to the
familiar narrative as possible, making it easier for children - and
your audience - to understand.
Feel
free to edit! Go ahead and tape it!
Most
publishers insist that no changes may be made to their scripts.
We know that your
goal is to engage every child in the most meaningful way and that
your needs are unique. Cut, eliminate, re-assign lines, or add
as much as you like! Also, there are no restrictions on video
tapes. Parents want a tape or DVD to remember their child's big
moment. Go ahead and tape away!
Everyone Has a Role in Cinderella!

A
NOTE FROM THE PLAYWRIGHT
In
the past few years we've
seen a tremendous increase of confidence in the teachers we hear
from. Most are finding it easier to let the process flow and
worry less about the final product. I firmly believe that the
experience will be best for all when you keep a few things in mind:
Free
yourself from worry about
whether or not it's "good". No one is paying big
ticket prices; no one expects a Broadway success. The key to
making this project meaningful is to put the emphasis on process;
realize that rehearsal and practice are as much a part of the
experience as the actual performance. Encourage fun and you
will free the children from embarrassment and stress. If the
kids can't learn the lines let them carry a script or use their own
words to convey the character's message. If they seem to wander
the stage, let them explore where they want to go - they might
surprise you with a wonderful idea. In every aspect of the
process give them the wings to create and think. Give them a
comfortable, supportive place to go and their confidence and
self-expression will soar!
Above
all else, make sure you are
having fun. If you've never directed a play before, don't
worry. It's all just pretend -- you can't do it wrong!
The quality of your experience is every bit as important as that of
the children. You need the joy of self-expression too, that
doesn't go away when we grow up. So give yourself a break.
And when all else fails, laugh!
Thank
you so much for choosing Cinderella.
I hope you and your young friends have as much fun performing this
play as I did writing it.

"Thanks
for your encouragement! Our performance went great! The children
painted the sets, helped with the costumes and really did a super
job. Your script was great. I think our "Greta Snagglebones"

Note:
Some teachers choose familiar songs, obtain sheet music and insert
these songs into the play. We recognize that each school has a
wide variety of educational needs to fulfill and we invite you to be
creative in your use of our scripts; including changes or additions
that are appropriate for your students. As author/publisher of our
own creative works, we do ask that you obtain proper copyright
permission for any additions you might make - that responsibility is
up to you.

CINDERELLA
DIALOGUE
SAMPLE
|
The
story is just as you remember it... Here is Cinderella's moment of triumph.
(Script
pages 26-27) |
SNAGGLE-BONES:
There's a caller from the King!
LULU-LOLLY:
I knew the Prince would choose me!
BELLA-BOMB:
You? You're daft! The Prince has chosen me!
SNAGGLE-BONES:
Girls! Be quiet! And don't forget your posture!
Cinderella, answer the door!
(CINDERELLA
goes to "door". CHORUS makes "knocks".
MISTER SEZ-SO & SNITWICK enter. SNITWICK carries a pillow
ceremoniously, the "shoe" sits upon it.)
MISTER SEZ-SO:
The Prince has ordered that every lady that was at the ball last
night try on this shoe. If the shoe fits, the Prince will make
you his bride.
(CINDERELLA gasps!)
SNAGGLE-BONES:
Well what are you waiting for Bella-Bomb? Try on the shoe!
BELLA-BOMB:
(To LULU-LOLLY.) I'm sure it fits me to a tea.
(BELLA-BOMB
throws off her shoe and sits, SNITWICK kneels at her feet. She
struggles to fit her foot inside the shoe. It doesn't fit.)
SNAGGLE-BONES:
Lulu-lolly! I command you to fit your foot in that shoe this
very instant!
(LULU-LOLLY
gives BELLA-BOMB a smug look, sits. She tries to fit her foot
in. It doesn't fit.)
SNAGGLE-BONES:
Let me at that!
(SNAGGLE-BONES
kneels, knocks SNITWICK away and shoves LULU-LOLLY's foot in the shoe.)
Push, girl, push!
LULU-LOLLY:
I am!
SNAGGLE-BONES:
Push harder!!
LULU-LOLLY:
(To SNITWICK.) It fits! See? It's just a
little tight is all.
(The shoe
dangles from her toe. SNAGGLE-BONES groans and falls from
exhaustion. CINDERELLA speaks up quietly.)
CINDERELLA:
May I try it on?
LULU-LOLLY:
You?
BELLA-BOMB:
You think you can fit the slipper?
SNAGGLE-BONES:
(Laughing.) That'll be the day!
(SNITWICK
gestures for CINDERELLA to take a seat. She sits.)
SNITWICK:
Madam?
(CINDERELLA
puts her foot to the shoe.
SOUND CUE
#10: Shoe Magic.
The CHORUS
makes magical sounds with chimes and xylophone. The shoe fits and ALL
gasp! [This can include all PERFORMERS who are not on stage.]
SNAGGLE-BONES and STEPSISTERS are agog, falling all over themselves,
amazed. SNITWICK stands, then falls to a deep bow.)
Princess.
