Town Play
Chapter 1
It was just another day in Happy Tree Town. A light-blue anteater and a yellow rabbit were walking down the street, chatting about who is better at video games, when they ran into a tall blue moose posting a sign on a telephone pole. Once the moose left, they walked over to the bulliten.
"What's it say Sniffles?" The yellow rabbit asked.
The anteater adjusted his glasses and responded with, "Auditions for the town play will be this Saturday. Romeo and Juliet is the name of the play. A sign up sheet can be found at Town Hall. Whoever wants to audition, sign up and see you Saturday.'."
"Wow, looks like the play has come early this year."
"Looks like it. So, you going to audition Cuddles?"
"Heck yeah I am! Romeo, here I come!"
And with that, Cuddles ran towards Town Hall, leaving Sniffles behind. He sighed and ran after the headstrong rabbit. At Town Hall, The two entered the building and walked over to the blue moose they saw earlier.
"Hello there fellas! Can I help you?"
"We're here to sign up for the town play, Lumpy."
The moose smiled widely. "Great! You've come to the right place! What would you two like to audition as?"
"I'd like to be Romeo!"
"And I'll audition as Friar Laurence."
"Cuddles for Romeo and Sniffles for Friar Laurence. Got it! Here's the lines you guys will say at audition. Good luck!"
The two walked out as two beavers and a female deer went in.
"I-I don't know about this Honeycomb...a guy playing Juliet? It doesn't seem right..."
"C'mon Toothy! It's perfect for you!"
"Honeycomb has a point there dude. You do act like a girl sometimes. Besides that you'd make history if you got this part."
Toothy just pouted and blushed. "Talk about embarressing..."
"Hello Honeycomb and Rhonda! And Toothy! Here to sign up as well?"
"Hello Lumpy! Yes we are."
"Great! The more the merrier! So, what would you guys like to play as?"
"I'd like to be Lady Montague, Rhonda would like to be Lady Capulet, and Toothy here would like to be Juliet."
"A guy acting for a girls part, huh? I like it!"
They each got a part to audition for.
"See you three Saturday!"
"Thanks Lumpy! See you there!"
The three walked outside, Toothy still beet red.
"Can't believe I let you two talk me into this..."
The two females just giggled.
