Sleeping Idol

MAY 24

The Producer has decided and chosen a stage play for the 765 Production Idols for only one night for the start of summer, called Sleeping Beauty. Another reason why he chose it was because he heard that the Idols had a movie night and watched the eternal memorable Disney classic lately, and had been thinking about it. After all, even though it's not much of an concert event, it still has a few musical numbers and would be a small break from all the Idol business.

They've done the auditions, they got the screenplay written, they did their daily Idol routines as usual while practicing in spare time, and they're excited for the cast list to come up while they wait.

But on that day, it finally arrives.

"Okay, girls. The cast list for the Sleeping Beauty stage play s finally here. We'll be practicing soon after performances, and we'll be ready for the show in two weeks.", the Producer said, reporting the news to the 765 Idols.

Miki Hoshii said, "My! Can't wait to see what role I'm in, because I've worked hard on my auditioning."

"So am I.", Makoto Kikuchi said, hugging her.

The Producer added, "I'm also gonna be playing as the King."

"You are? We better find out!", the 765 Production Idol gang said, rushing past the Producer.

Running over to the newly added Sleeping Beauty stage play cast, the 765 Production Idols look over and see the list, read;

SLEEPING BEAUTY PLAY CAST

MIKI HOSHII - AURORA
MAKOTO KIKUCHI - PHILLIP
HIBIKI GANAHA - MALEFICENT
HARUKA AMAMI, CHIHAYA KISARAGI AND IORI MINASE - FLORA, FAUNA AND MERRYWEATHER
THE PRODUCER - KING STEFAN
TAKANE SHIJOU - QUEEN LEAH
AZUSA MIURA - QUEEN MARGARET
AMI FUTAMI AND MAMI FUTAMI - CELESTE AND COLETTE
YAYOI TAKATSUKI - MINSTREL
RITSUKO AKIZUKI - DUKE

When reading the cast for the stage play, they were utterly surprised by this.

"Oh my gosh! I'm gonna be the princess!", Miki swooned, fainting dreamily.

Makoto groans, "Oh, why do I always have to play as the prince? Despite my looks, I still think I should be cast as a girl role, yet, it wouldn't hurt to appreciate the role. It may or may not best suit me, but I guess it'll be okay."

"Oh, come on, Makoto! This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you to play the princely role.", confided Haruka and Chihaya.

Hibiki facepalmed, "And unfortunately, I'm playing as the antagonist. How come- I don't think I portrayed as a villain before. Oh...what am I to do?", embarrassed, "I don't want to be mean towards all of you..."

"Wait, Hibiki.", Iori thought quick and comforted Hibiki, "It doesn't mean you'll play as the antagonist in all plays or in real-life, it's only for one time. However, to act like one, think of doing a menacing, malicious, threatening impression when doing your lines, improvise and such."

"Think like...Maleficent from the movie we watched, maybe mixed with the Evil Queen, and...maybe even the villain from Balto.", the Futami twins stated.

Hibiki hesitates, "Okay. Thanks for the tip, girls. I hope I don't go too far on my role during the roadshow."

Miki rose from her faint, "Besides that, being the princess of the story is everything I ever dreamed of."

"Well then...rest assured, I'll be glad to be your prince charming in this one.", Makoto reluctantly handled, blushing.

Miki blushes a bit, "Oh. Thanks...Makoto...", signifying love.

"Who are Celeste and Colette?", the Futami twins asked, "We never seen them in the film."

The Producer came over and said, "Oh, they're both new characters originally for the play. They're two peasants that assist and are friends of the three fairies since the Christening. They do not age due to a gift of gratitude from the fairies after the Christening during the 18-year time skip in the beginning. Let's just say they are longtime friends."

"Count us in.", said the Futami twins in a second.

Makoto said to The Producer, "We'll be ready for the play. We're fine with our roles."

"Great news. Go over your lines, practice and be ready for the performance in two weeks. You may resume your idol routines.", announced the Producer calmly to the 765 Production Idol group.

All the Idols responded, "Ok.", going back to their duties.

JUNE 7
The National Japanese Theater

It had been two weeks later. The tickets were sold out a week to five days prior to the stage play roadshow. Everyone was taking their seats, waiting for the show to start.

Backstage, Makoto, Miki, Hibiki, The Producer, and the other Idols were getting their costumes ready and made sure their lines were memorized.

"Okay, everyone. The show is going to start in five minutes. Glad you all got to memorize and be prepared for the show, and I'm happy you girls got your Idol performances taken care of.", the Producer said, getting his king costume ready.

Miki said as she was getting her costume ready, "This is going to be very exciting, Makoto. Perfectly princess in a happily ever after."

"Of course, Miki. My princely outfit kind of makes me want to go with it only for one time. By the way, Haruka, Chihaya, Iori, when do we both go in?", Makoto replied with a smirk, putting a red cape and hat like the character she's portraying in the Disney version.

"Actually, you won't be in until after the prologue, unfortunately.", Haruka, Chihaya and Iori sorries, "Us three, Ami and Mami, The Producer, Takane, Azusa, Yayoi, Ritsuko and Hibiki will be in the prologue. But the production is working on effects for the young prince in the prologue, the magic, the dragon, the visual and sound effects..."

Hibiki was busy getting her Maleficent costume ready, "...and the antagonist's minions later in the story. This costume actually fits me for some reason. Even the horns..."

"The play will be split into two acts. When Act 1 is finished, might as well you're allowed to take a break, but be back in 10 minutes by then for Act 2.", arranged The Producer, "The Playwright Productions company demands it politely. Get your roles ready, Makoto and Miki for maybe 20 minutes into the show? We're going in three minutes."

Makoto and Miki hold hands, saying, "Got it."

On the stage, the Playwright Productions logo is shown, as the director, an OC character named Sam Lee, comes on stage.

"I would like to start off by saying, thank you everyone for all coming.", Sam Lee said to the audience, introducing when the overture Sleeping Beauty opening music playing, "Tonight we'll be doing a one-night-only engagement, showing the stage play of the Disney classic, Sleeping Beauty, starring the 765 Production Idols group themselves!", recieving a loud cheer from the crowd, as Sam continues, "I'll be narrating the opening and a few parts of this stageplay if you like, so shall we get this story started.", earning agreement from the audience.

I sat down and started reading to the audience in the start of the prologue;

In a far away land long ago, lived a King and his fair Queen. Many years had they longed for a child and finally their wish was granted. A daughter was born. They called her, Aurora. Yes, they named her after the dawn, for she filled their lives with sunshine. Then a great holiday was proclaimed throughout the kingdom so that all of high or low estate might pay homage to the infant princess. And our story begins on that most joyful day...

Then, as the narrator finished, the story truly begins, the stageplay transporting our imaginations from the stageplay reality to a fairytale fantasy...
