Q

Gabi:… and then she’d say, “Just you wait Gabi, when you’re a little older, boys will line up to take you dancing every night.”

A

My parents were very strict. I mean they loved us but… they’re just old-fashioned.

Q

Gabi: You could have been nicer to her

A

I don’t like her. She scares Jana

30
Q

Gabi: Does she scare you too?

A

Come on, let’s dance some more

31
Q

Gabi: We should get back to work. Miroslav’s waiting for our articles

A

Just a few more minutes, Pretend I’m Pavel

32
Q

(Gabi finishes reading her article)… The beauty, the magic, the power of spoken word.

A

Did Pavel go with you?

33
Q

Gabi: (shakes her head no) If her words could affect me like that, Miroslave has to be right about the newspaper.

A

(Nod) And it won’t just inspire the other prisoners. Everone says the Red Cross is coming soon

34
Q

Jana: If you want, I’ll sing you a lullaby and you can take a nap. You can even hold my doll

A

(Approach her and Miroslav) What are you doing?

35
Q

Jana: Miroslav’s helping me write a story for the newspaper!

A

No! I told you I don’t want her involved she’s too young

36
Q

Erik: At least I would’ve died doing something. You were too scared to even try

A

(Stand) That’s not fair.

37
Q

(Miroslav and Erik start fighting)

A

Stop it! Stop it!

38
Q

Pavel and Gabi: They are transports!

A

We know

39
Q

Gabi: I’ve never seen so many trains

A

I hear they’re going to Birkenau

40
Q

Alena: Who cares where they’re going?
Jana: Eva, my doll broke!

A

(Stand) I care!

41
Q

Jana: Eva, my doll!

A

Not now.

42
Q

Erik: Yeah, and they don’t want any survivors

A

A man who knows someone who works in the secretariat told me the same thing. He said his friend overheard one of the guards say that things will go badly for them after the war, if there are witnesses.

43
Q

Mir:… and we’ve all got to know each other’s hiding places… so whoever’s left, whoever survives can uncover them.

A

(Walk to Jana) I can’t think that way.

44
Q

Alena: This was Martin’s spot. I’m putting my writing in this

A

This is for ours. Mine and Jana’s

45
Q

Jana: I don’t want to go to Poland

A

We’re not going anywhere yet

46
Q

Jana: Don’t worry, Anna. I won’t let anything happen to you. I promise. I’ll be right with you wherever you go. You’ll see

A

Can you get any closer?

47
Q

Mir: Weiss, Miroslav

A

No! (Cry into Gabi)

48
Q

Pavel: As the first trains pull out, further lists are promised for tomorrow

A

They are going to kill us all.

49
Q

(Start of puppet show)

A

The residents of Barracks L-310 and L-318 present “The Snow Queen!” Written by Eva Hellerova and Miroslave Weiss. From the story by Hans Chrisian Andersen.

50
Q

(step off to side and say)

A

Puppets made by Jana Hellerova, Gabriela Winterova, Alena Lederova, and Pavel Hoffman.

51
Q

(start of narrating the play)

A

Once upon a time there were two little children… Karl and Gerta. (Puppets appear) They lived in a big city in little garrets across the alley from each other, which their parents had connected by means of roof garden.

52
Q

Gabi: Scene Two. Far away at the North Pole, in the Snow Queen’s fortress.

A

It’s so lonely here all by myself

53
Q

Wizard: You have me, your highness

A

You, Wizard?! You’re old and ugly and useless. I think it’s time to send you to Poland

54
Q

Wizard: Oh, no, your highness. I’m still useful. Look, I have a magic mirror. A mirror that will let you see all over the world.

A

So what?

55
Q

Wizard: So we can use it to find you a companion. A beautiful little child that you can put a spell on and bring here to keep with you forever.

A

A beautiful little child. What a wonderful idea!

56
Q

(change places with Gabi)

A

Scene Three. Karl and Gerta’s roof garden

57
Q

Karl: I don’t care, I’m going

A

Scene Four. The park

58
Q

Karl: Wheeeeee! This is fun!

A

Do you like the snow little boy?

59
Q

Karl: Huh? Oh, yes.

A

I know a place where snow is even better.

60
Q

Karl:Where?

A

I can’t tell you, but I can take you there

61
Q

Karl: I don’t know…

A

(casts a spell) Come!

62
Q

(gerta exits after being swept away by wind)

A

Scene Five. The Snow Queen’s Fortress

63
Q

Karl:… Shh! Here she comes!

A

What? Asleep again? This is not why I brought you here! All you do is sleep or complain about the lovely cold, or about how hungry you are. I give you plenty of snow and ice to eat.

64
Q

Karl: Couldn’t you light the oven for just a little while? Please?

A

All right, but not for too long, or I’ll begin to melt.

65
Q

Karl: Hurry Gerta! ( they rush to tie her up)

A

What…?! Stop! What have you done?

66
Q

(they push her into the oven)

A

AAAAAHHHHHH

67
Q

Jana: Where’s Anna? I can’t I find Anna?

A

Here she is

68
Q

Jana: I don’t want to go to Poland

A

I know… but we’ll go together. You and me and Anna. And perhaps, when we get there, Miroslav will be waiting for us. And maybe Mommy and Daddy.

69
Q

Jana: Really?

A

Maybe.

70
Q

(loudspeaker voice announces transports must leave)

A

(to Gabi) We’ve got to go.
