Q

Persephone: (interrupting Donna) Donna! Take a breath! Remember your training! Breathe through the emotion. Save your drama for the stage.

A

Well just help me keep an eye on Snipe, will you? And as for my spot, I’m sure it’s just carpal tunnel. Hopefully it’;; be better before next month.

27
Q

Bumblefloor: Thank you, Fayco. Molly, please share your concept with us.

A

Well, I approached this challenge from the standpoint of taking a play which is problematic in our current society. I have always enjoyed the fun banter of Kate and Petruchio in Shakespeare’s “The Taming of the Shrew,” but it does pose a challenge as it can be interpreted as highly misogynistic. And we don’t need to be presenting plays which degrade women. So, I would take this play and set it in… (unfurls poster) ah… the Wild West! Yes! Where Kate is a strong woman with the same, ah, caliber as the famous… gun-slingers, like Billy the Kid. And when Petruchio is trying to control her, she is playing the same game against him, so they are on equal footing. Instead of a submissive wife, she will be his… partner in crime.

28
Q

Donna: Way to go!

A

Thanks, but I didn’t draw that hat! I had to make up all that Western stuff on the fly!

29
Q

Mooney: No, protecting!

A

Huh?

30
Q

Frederick: Wow! What an honor to be your partner, Molly. I feel like I’m in great hands!

A

It’s an honor to work with you too, Frederick.

31
Q

Frederick: What happened, Molly?

A

Oh sorry, it’s nothing.

32
Q

Frederick: OK. Why don’t we start rehearsing? We only have a month!

A

Where’s the cutaway?

33
Q

Frederick: I don’t know. Maybe we should just continue?

A

Good idea.

34
Q

Frederick: That was a short month, but I feel really good about how well we rehearsed that scene, as long as those Critiquers don’t show up!

A

It’s not the Critiquers I’m worried about, it’s my hand. It’s still really painful.

35
Q

Fred Tolom: Don’t touch other people’s props! This one is for Molly Sculptor.

A

That’s weird…

36
Q

Frederick: What’s weird?

A

It’s just… um, nothing. (pause) Frederick, I don’t think I’m going to be able to pull off King 2’s fight choreography.

37
Q

Frederick: Then let’s switch. I’ll play King 2.

A

Are you sure?

38
Q

Frederick: Yeah! If there’s anything you can say about Gafferpuffs, it’s that we know how to be flexible!

A

Thank you!

39
Q

Frederick: Of course, Molly. Here… I feel really good about this.

A

Well, my formidable foe, here we are.

40
Q

King 2: Yes. After ten years of fighting, we have finally reached an end to these shenanigans.

A

Let us no longer let our people suffer the pangs of war! A truce!

41
Q

King 2: A truce!

A

Gesundheit.

42
Q

King 2: Thank you.

A

Here, my new-found friend, I drink to your health and the prosperity of our union.

43
Q

King 2: Here here!

A

Tell me. Now that we have supped the communal wine of peace, (pause) how would you feel if I murdered your people and took over your land?

44
Q

KIng 2: What the what?

A

Did you honestly think I would step aside and let these years of bloodshed mean nothing! That wine was poisoned you fool! I expect you to die a cruel, horrible death in 3… 2… 1…

45
Q

King 2: Well, that poison didn’t work!

A

Huzzah! Now I am the one king to rule them all! Nothing can stop me now!
I said…. NOTHING CAN STOP ME NOW!
Nothing… can stop…. me… now? Frederick?! Frederick! He’s been poisoned!

46
Q

Nearly Partless Ned: Hey! No ad-libbing in my play! Stick to the script!

A

No, I mean Frederick has literally been poisoned!

47
Q

Everyone screams!

A

Where’s Snipe? I bet he’s behind this!

48
Q

Snipe: Why would I do such a thing?

A

I should’ve drank from that glass, not Frederick! You’ve been out to get me since day one, you life-cheater!

49
Q

Moldefort: I had to stop them. But this cursed child had to live! Her parents’ love for theatre protected her when she was a mere infant.

A

I thought it was their love for ME that protected me.

50
Q

Moldefort: And I can’t have that happen! I’ll never be able to change this school to a film studio with that kind of theatrical success from an alumnus! That’s why I tried to poison you!

A

It was you! You poisoned the prop drink! You killed poor Frederick!

51
Q

Moldefort: That drink was meant for you!!! Curse you and your versatility to change roles at the last second!

A

You will never change this school to a film studio! I stopped you once as a baby, and I’ll stop you again!

52
Q

Moldefort: Please, child! You cannot defeat me!

A

I challenge you to a duel, Moldefort. If I win, Piglumps stays a theatrical school forever. If you win, you get your film studio.

53
Q

Moldefort: Silence! I accept your duel! There is only one type of duel that will suffice at Piglumps. Let the improv battle commence! Choose your improve game.

A

I challenge you to… Questions!

54
Q

Persephone: Don’t do it, Molly! Everyone knows Moldefort is the reigning champion of Questions at Piglumps!

A

Trust me, Persephone. I got this.

55
Q

Bumblefloor: Molly, are you ready?

A

I was born ready!

56
Q

Bumblefloor: Let the questions begin in 3… 2… 1.

A

Is the director on set yet?

57
Q

Moldefort: Have you seen him?

A

How are we going to start filming without the director?

58
Q

Moldefort: Are the actors here?

A

Are you one of the actors?

59
Q

Molefort: Don’t you know who I am?

A

Are you that egotistical Moldefort I’ve heard about?

60
Q

All: Oohhhhhhhhh!

A

Why are you trying to destroy our school?

61
Q

Moldefort: Why won’t you die?

A

You want me dead?

62
Q

Frederick: Psst. Molly! That’s your cue!

A

Frederick! You’re alive!

63
Q

Mooney: I told you so.

A

Professor Snipe, I’m sorry I thought it was you. But it was Moldefort and a well-meaning stage elf. I guess I’m always wrong.

64
Q

Mooney: Here, Molly, give this to Dabby. I found it backstage.

A

Here Dabby, you left this backstage.
