Q

DONNA: I know and I’ve been chained to this place. The constant battles with the
bank-manager.

A

I pity the poor bank-manager.

A

Sophie Sheridan! You get more gorgeous every time I see you. Don’t I get a big, fat

Q

DONNA: Are you kidding? I’ll be more than ready to put my feet up when my boat comes in.

A

Speaking of boats, I’d sink that old wreck you’ve got moored by the jetty.

ROSIE holds up a pair of battered, baggy shorts.
You’re joking!

TANYA: Well. You could have been making some sort of statement on the tyranny of
wedlock.

You’d know more about that than me.

Q

A

I have. I did … and all they wanted was to settle down and have babies. No thanks.

Q

TANYA: No … children can become such subversive little buggers! I mean, who’d have
thought that Donna, the icon of female independence, would have a daughter
Committing matrimony at twenty.

A

White weddings are trendy.

Q

TANYA: What’s wrong with these kids? Do you remember those t-shirts we used to wear?
‘Marriage is an institution -

-for people who belong in an institution.’

Q

TANYA: Girls today seem to think that a woman’s greatest achievement is getting a man.

A

You’ve had three husbands.

23
Q

TANYA: I rest my case.

A

Ooh, look.

24
Q

TANYA: Oh my Lord!
ROSIE finds a poster showing DONNA AND THE DYNAMOS 1976
(Taking the poster)
Oh.
(Suddenly wistful)
We were so young.

A

I don’t know what the gals at the ‘Whole Woman’ Press would say about my outfit.

25
Q

TANYA: Hey-we should do a number tonight for Sophie’s party.

A

I’ll have to let out a few seams.

26
Q

DONNA: Where’s Sophie?

A

Haven’t seen her. Why?

27
Q

DONNA: What the hell is that about?

A

It was in the trunk. You should hang this in the bar. Show Sophie what a funky
mom she’s got…

28
Q

DONNA: … NO- get rid of it-burn it-I never want to see it again …

A

What’s wrong? … what’s happened … ?

29
Q

DONNA: .. .I thought it was over … past… I’d almost forgotten … but it isn’t!

A

What isn’t?

30
Q

TANYA: …bastard…

A

… typical man …

31
Q

TANYA: Donna Sheridan! You dark horse!

A

Why didn’t you tell us?

32
Q

TANYA: What?

A

In the bar?

33
Q

DONNA: Don’t let them see you!

A

I can’t see anyone. Who are they?

34
Q

DONNA: Of course I’m sure. You think I’d forget my daughter’s Dads? It’s Sam, Bill Austin
and Harry ‘Head-Banger’.

A

Not…?

35
Q

DONNA: Why have they all turned up like this? It’s like some horrible twist of Fate.

A

It is very Greek.

36
Q

DONNA: … I don’t want them spoiling it. They’ve got no right to turn up like this-what the
hell have they ever done for their daughter?

A

Donna, be fair - they didn’t know she existed …

37
Q

DONNA: … and they don’t need to know - I’ve done a damn good job with Soph, all by myself,
and now I’m going to be muscled out by an ejaculation!

A

No, you’re not, keep calm. You’re safe this evening-it’s a male-free zone at Sophie’s
party. And tomorrow - Tanya and I will take them fishing.

38
Q

TANYA: Fishing? Oh-please!

A

What do you suggest we do with three men?

39
Q

TANYA: Oh, now that takes me back.

A

Donna-you should have told us. I remember Bill Austin -he was a hot slice of beef
cake.

40
Q

DONNA: I do not!

A

Yes–you do!

41
Q

TANYA: Ooh, well grow back down again. You haven’t done anything to be ashamed of …

A

… yeah, screw ‘em if they can’t take a joke-

42
Q

TANYA: For one night and one night only-The Summer Night Taverna is proud to present the world’s first Girl Power Band, live before you, in all its grown-up wrinkly glory-

A

Speak for yourself.

43
Q

What the hell are they doing here?

A

Hey! Hen night. Women only.

44
Q

Is that all you caught?

A

You should have seen the one that got away.

45
Q

This big.

A

Bill-don’t exaggerate.
(Opening her arms as wide as she possibly can)
It was this big.

46
Q

Thanks, but no thanks. Rosie’s promised me the works.

A

I have?

47
Q

You know I always keep your ‘Whole Woman’ cook-book in my back-pack.

A

You do? Well then you’ll know how to pepper my snapper.

48
Q

Rosie-

A

Go and wait with the others, till I’ve finished.

49
Q

I got this note from Sophie. She wanted me to give her away, but now she’s changed
her mind. I’m confused. I don’t know where I am-I don’t know who I am. I just
came here for a wedding. I’m Sophie’s Dad.

A

Whoa! You need a conversation with Donna.

50
Q

Yes, I’ll go tell her now-

A

You’ll do no such thing! Sophie’s getting married in five minutes! Take a pew- and
button it.

51
Q

Will it be all right for me to be here?

A

Oh, for God’s sake!

52
Q

Well to tell you the truth-I was dreading that walk down the aisle. I may come
across as the intrepid traveler, but I come over all faint at the thought of a wedding.

A

Tell me about it.

53
Q

Me, too.

A

Typical, isn’t it? You wait 20 years for a Father, and then three come along at the
same time.
