Act I
Opening Scene
[A
dark night in the desert in Egypt just outside Hamunaptra]
[Enter
Ardeth Bey on horseback]
[Song
originally "Arabian Nights" from Disney's Aladdin]
Ardeth
Bey: (singing) Oh I come from a land, from a faraway place, where the med-jai
and horses roam,
Where
it's flat and immense and those priests are a pest, it's insufferable, but hey,
it's home
[Stands
center stage]
When
the thieves from the east and the yanks from the west and that girl from Cairo
come at night,
Grab
your scimitar and ride,
[Mounts
horse]
On
a horsey or you die, on another Egyptian night!!
[Horse
rears]
Egyptian
nights, like Egyptian days, more often than not, are filled with rot and I get
enraged!!
Egyptian
nights, 'neath Egyptian moon, a fool off his guard, could die and die quick,
out here in the dunes
[Slowly
exits stage right]
[Curtain
falls]
Scene
II
[Curtain
rises]
[Night
fall in Thebes]
[Ardeth
Bey enters stage left on foot]
Ardeth
Bey: Welcome to Thebes, City of the Living, crown jewel of Pharaoh Seti the I,
Home
of Imhotep, [Imhotep enters stage left, stands to far right] Pharaoh's high
priest, Keeper of the Dead,
Birthplace

Anck-su-namun:[Walking
towards Imhotep]
I'm
the pharaoh's girl, in the pharaoh's world
I've
been painted, I'm so tainted
I'm
completely bare and undressed everywhere
Prostitution,
I need retribution
Imhotep
& Ardeth Bey: Come on mistress, do your business
Anck-su-namun:

Feel
me up, go all night, I'm your princess

You're my love, from above, but I can't get enough
Kiss
me here, touch me there, let's be naughty
Anck-su-namun:
You can touch, you can play, if you say I'm always yours
I'm
the pharaoh's girl, in the pharaoh's world

Come right in, mistress sin, let us do it again
Hit
the floor, go for more, let's be dirty

You can touch, you can play, if you say I'm always yours

Anck-su-namun:
I love you. [Waves palm slowly in front of Imhotep's face]
[They
kiss]
[Imhotep
inadvertently rubs off paint on her arm]
[Enter
Seti, stage left]
[Priests
try to bock his path, he shouts at them]
[Anck-su-namun
& Imhotep look in his direction]
[Imhotep
goes out of view to the right]
[Anck-su-namun
fixes her hair and assumes a casual stance]
[Seti
enters and looks at Anck-su-namun carefully]
[Suddenly
points to her arm and asks who has touched her]
[Anck-su-namun
does not answer, then focuses on Imhotep, who has come up behind Seti]
[Seti
turns, is stunned]
[Imhotep
grabs Seti's sword]
[Seti
is stunned]: Imhotep?! My priest?!
[Anck-su-namun produces a knife from her
skirts (?!) and stabs Seti in the back.]
[Seti
screams in agony]
[Imhotep
stabs Set in the stomach]
[
They stab and stab…(you get the point)…until Seti is on the floor: dead]
[Enter
Med-jai, stage left]
[Priests
grab Imhotep and attempt to drag him away]
Imhotep:
I won't leave you
Anck-su-namun:
You must! Go!
Imhotep:
Not without you!!
Anck-su-namun:
You have to! You are the only one who can resurrect me!
[She
waves her palm in front of his face as before]
[Priests
drag him away as he yells and struggles]
[Med-jai
come over to face Anck-su-namun]
[They
look down, horrified, to see Seti on the floor…DEAD!!!]
Anck-su-namun:
My body is no longer his temple! [Raises her knife to her stomach and plunges
it into herself]
[Imhotep
screams as his priests drag him off]
[Curtain closes]
