A/N
Hello everyone! I promised I'd write something before the end of January... TADA!

Following a recent trend I saw, here is a collection of drabbles about the Grimm family! I have decided to prompt each one from stage productions (I'm such an actor... did anyone catch the Shakespeare reference? Anyone? Nobody? Right on...). This chapter's prompts are brought to you from a Top Ten Broadway Musicals of All Time list I found :)

Of course, there is another reason I am posting something. I had two of my stories (The Final Battle and Whiskey Lullaby) nominated for the Best Sisters Grimm Story of 2012! AHHH! So exciting...! Although I don't care if I win (and I highly doubt I will), I would LOVELOVELOVE it if you would go vote for one of them (The Final Battle...). It would mean a lot to me, obviously, but I also would just love it if you read this and them.

Can you name all the Broadway shows without looking it up? Prove it in a review :)

And now, please enjoy All The World's a Stage!

MUSIC

It's been a horribly long day, and to make things harder they're now playing host to Jake. Puck doesn't know how to cheer her up, so he sits in silence. He knows better than to try to talk to her. But then they hear the sound of the shower from across their tiny apartment. Jake's shaky tenor starts singing an old German song, and they suddenly realize the lessons Granny gave finally paid off because the song isn't supposed to be about a rooster, and now they're both smiling. Puck finally feels that it is safe to take Sabrina's hand.

RENT

The bills were wracking up. His whole life he had been solving cases for book characters, but what use was that in the real world? None. His head pounded as the numbers seemed to dance around the page. His thoughts started drift. They were going to lose the apartment. The car desperately needed repairs. And just as he is ready to despair, he hears footsteps. Turning around, he sees his beautiful new wife walking towards him. Her presence relaxes him, and he draws her in. They kiss and share a small smile, relaxing in the miracle growing inside of her

PHANTOM

She trips the train over her long dress, and curses. The cool wind of the spirit she is chasing breezes past, and she tries again to use the Apparition Stone around her neck, but to no avail. Suddenly she is pinned to the wall, a high-pitched shrieking echoing around the huge room she is in. She finally hears the laughter she has been waiting for. A swarm of bright lights appears and Sabrina slides down the wall as the force drops her. As the lights solidify the spirit, Puck finally clasps her hand and laughs, "What a wedding day, eh?"

PIRATES

The Pirate Ocimum stalks through the jungle of an island he discovered, a huge beast carrying his empty bags. Their quest has been unsuccessful. They've met up with several villainous creatures, one of which was a Nymph that bested him in an eating contest. He feels sure that his grand ship is near, when suddenly he is confronted with the queen of all monsters: the Mother Pirate. But he loves the Mother Pirate, and resigns himself to be kissed and reminded to brush his teeth so that he won't need wooden teeth to go with his wooden leg and eye-patch.

WICKED

He could never really remember why he brought the mechanical witch back with him. The hour between saying goodbye to the Grimms and leaving Faerie was hazy, and then he was suddenly riding a giant witch upstate. Daphne uncharacteristically avoided it. Granny had exasperatedly asked him where he was planning to keep it. Of course, Sabrina had told him that it was stupid to keep. But now that they were standing on their back porch holding hands and watching their young daughters on the play structure he had made with the parts, he decided that it truly was a treasure.

LION

She learned too quickly about his lifestyle. He was a small town guy who hadn't gone to college. Her engineering degree was clearly intimidating him, but for some reason, he was keeping her as breathless as she was keeping him. And then she met the Lion. They were on their fifth date when a large man at a neighboring table recognized him and started crying. He said something about New York intimidating him, and then he did something shocking: he wiped his eyes with… a tail. At that moment, Henry turned to her and said "Veronica… I've got a secret…"

HAIRSPRAY

It was punishment for the way their date had gone. He knew, deep down, that he deserved it… but that did not make what Daphne, Red, and Basil were doing to him any less humiliating. But he didn't dare complain because Sabrina was standing in the doorway with a raised eyebrow. When she saw him watching, she smirked. "You look good in lipstick." He looked away, but just then Red decided that she was done with his hair and that Basil could have free reign over the hairspray. With chemical mist fileverywhere, Puck decided to let Sabrina plan Valentine's Day.

MISERABLE

The silence of the house was deafening. No more did her boys run up and down the stairs. The sounds of their arguing didn't bounce off the stairwell and into her kitchen. And worst of all was that her loving husband would never again bounce through the front door, sweep her into his arms, and tell her he loved her. He was gone and their sons had abandoned her to the dreary silence, forcing her to look at their three empty chairs. It was all too much for her; she needed some source of refuge. Perhaps she'd get a puppy…

CATS

She could hear them before she even got out of the car. The chorus of meows was faint, but definitely there. The house looked the same as ever, and she was able to let herself in. The state of the house was proof that he was not dealing with the news, she could see that clearer than ever. All the books that she had boxed up had been replaced by cats. She waded through the animals to where he sat on the stairs, obviously waiting for her. "Puck… this isn't working. You know you need to go to her wedding."

FIDDLER

He fiddled with the tablecloth, his eyes staring at a flickering candle without seeing it. He suddenly heard her voice, and turned around. Her face was glowing the same way it had the night he had met her, and doubts he'd had were gone now. He opened the bottle of cheap wine, unable to afford anything else given the velvet box that was residing in his pocket. A fiddler nearby started to play, and he knew that the moment had come. Gently, he took her soft hand into his own shaking one. He took a deep breath. "Relda…" he began.
