For the next month all of the children worked long and hard on learning their lines. Every time Dib and Amethyst had to practice the kissing scene they did every thing they could to avoid it. They figured if they had to kiss each other then they would do it only once. Now it is finally time for the play.
Setting 3 The play.
Every one is there even Zim's robot parents are there. You see Mr. Elliot had told everyone to bring their parents Zim made some modifications to the robot parents and brought them along.
-Professor Membrane- (He sits next to the robot parents) It is so great to have our kids in a play together. I'm Professor Membrane, Dib and Gaz's father who are your kids? (he holds out his hand)
-Robot Dad- (grabs his hand) Hi we're Zim and Amethyst's parents it is very nice to meet you.
-Professor membrane- Nice to meet you too. (the robot dad won't let go so he has to slip the robot dads hand off of his.)
-Robot Mom- I'm just so glad to see our little angels in a play together they grow up so fast. Where do the years go. (she starts crying)
-Robot Dad- Aww honey don't cry.
-Mr. Elliot- (Comes on stage) Hello everyone and welcome to our Skool's production of Romeo and Juliet. Now lets get started.(he goes back stage and the curtains pull back to reveal Gaz in a purple narrator out fit. Each one of the characters costume look like the costumes from the Romeo and Juliet episode of Hey Arnold. I will still be describing them as best I can but that might help you a bit more. If you want a better look go to youtube and type in I POOP ON THE SCHOOL PLAY and look at the end that should help you out)
-Gaz- Two households, both alike in dignity,
In fair Verona, where we lay our scene,
From ancient grudge break to new mutiny,
Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean.
From forth the fatal loins of these two foes
A pair of star-cross'd lovers take their life;
Whole misadventured piteous overthrows
Do with their death bury their parents' strife.
The fearful passage of their death-mark'd love,
And the continuance of their parents' rage,
Which, but their children's end, nought could remove,
Is now the two hours' traffic of our stage;
The which if you with patient ears attend,
What here shall miss, our toil shall strive to mend. (the curtains close and pull open again to reveal Zim in a red and purple Tybalt out fit with a hat on and a sword. His pak is showing he is wearing his wig under the hat and his black gloves are still on. Some kids from the Skool stand behind him and he is about to attack Keef with the sword. Keef is in a yellow and brown Mercutio out fit and he has a sword too and a yellow hat. Dib stands behind Keef in a blue Romeo out fit. Rob is there too he is wearing a orange Benvolio out fit)
-Zim- I am for you.
-Dib- (he gets in between them) Gentle Mercutio and Tybalt, put thy rapier up.
-Keef- Come, sir, your passado. (Keef pushes Dib out of the way and Zim and Keef fight)
-Dib- (he gets back in their way)
Tybalt, Mercutio, the prince expressly hath
Forbidden bandying in Verona streets:
Hold, Tybalt! good Mercutio! (Zim under Dib arm stabs Keef, and flies with his followers the other children.)
-Keef- Owie!(he starts to fall all dramatic like.) Oh I die why. (he falls and stickes out his tough)
-Rob- (he runs to Keefs side and holds him up to examine him) O Romeo, Romeo, brave Mercutio's dead!
-Keef- I see a bright like oh it is beconing me to go to it I die.
-Rob- That gallant spirit hath aspired the clouds,
Which too untimely here did scorn the earth.
-Keef- Oh what a gallant spirit I once was but now I die.
-Rob- (he wispers) Die already you idiot.
-Keef- Oh right I die. (he dies for real this time and Rob cares him off)
-Dib- This day's black fate on more days doth depend;
This but begins the woe, others must end.
-Rob- (he re-enters) Here comes the furious Tybalt back again.
-Dib- Alive, in triumph! and Mercutio slain!
Away to heaven, respective lenity,
And fire-eyed fury be my conduct now! (Zim enters with the same followers from before.) Now, Tybalt, take the villain back again,
That late thou gavest me; for Mercutio's soul
Is but a little way above our heads,
Staying for thine to keep him company:
Either thou, or I, or both, must go with him.
-Zim- Thou, wretched boy, that didst consort him here,
Shalt with him hence. For I am Zim! Uh I mean, uh, TYBALT!"
-Dib- This shall determine that. (they fight and Zim falls)
-Rob- Romeo, away, be gone! The citizens are up, and Tybalt slain. Stand
not amazed...
(Looks over at Dib, who is doing a little victory dance over Zim's "dead
body." Zim sitting partways up, glaring.)
-Rob- (annoyed) Be gone away!
-Dib- What? Oh, sorry. (Dib leaves) That was FUN...(the curtains close then they reopen to reveal a balcony seen. I am probably not doing this in order of the play but I don't care it works better this way. Dib stands in the gradan.)
-Dib- But, soft! what light through yonder window breaks?
It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.
'Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon'...what am I talking about?
She's practically FROM the moon!
-Ms. Bitters (backstage)- DIB! Stop it and do your lines right!
-Dib- Alright, alright...er, who is already sick and pale with grief,
That thou her maid art far more fair than she:
Be not her maid, since she is envious;
Her vestal livery is but sick and green
And none but fools do wear it; cast it off.
It is my lady, O, it is my love!
O, that she knew she were!
She speaks yet she says nothing: what of that?
Her eye discourses; I will answer it.
I am too bold, 'tis not to me she speaks:
Two of the fairest stars in all the heaven,
Having some business, do entreat her eyes
To twinkle in their spheres till they return.
'What if her eyes were there, they in her
head?/The brightness of her cheek would shame those stars'-for goodness' sake,
her cheek is GREEN-
-Ms. Bitters- DIB! Once more and it's the underground classrooms with you!
-Dib- Alright but this is insane O, that I were a glove upon that hand,
That I might touch that cheek!
-Amethyst- (She walks on to the balcony. Her blond hair is in a bone with a brad at the end her hair style looks like Helga's did in the Romeo and Juliet Hey Arnold episode. Zim had fix the disguise machine for this a caution in case you were wondering since we all know that that is not Amethyst's real hair. She wears a golden necklace and a pinkish purple and pink Juliet dress. Her gloves are still on. Her pak is showing and she has black high heeled shoes on.) Ay me!
-Dib- She speaks
O, speak again, bright angel!
-Amethyst- O Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo?
Deny thy father and refuse thy name;
Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my loathe! Oh I mean love,
And I'll no longer be a Capulet. 'Tis but thy name that is my enemy;
Thou art thyself, though not a Montague.
What's Montague? it is nor hand, nor foot,
Nor arm, nor face, nor any other part
Belonging to a man. O, be some other name!
What's in a name? that which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet;
So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call'd,
Retain that dear perfection which he owes. What am I saying he is so ugly and I don't like him at all.
-Sara- (she is playing the nurse and she calls out to Amethyst from where she is in the back part of the balcony where no on can hear her.) Amethyst stop letting your personal feelings get in the way and say the lines right.
-Amethyst- Fine flithy human! Without that title. Romeo, doff thy name,
And for that name which is no part of thee
Take all myself.(the curtains close. Yes I know I'm not doing the whole play but that would bore you all so now it is time for the last scene. The curtains pull back to reveal Amethyst on a coffin thing "dead" Dib is towards the side with a cup in his hands he is really dead lying on the ground.)
-Brain- (he enters) Romeo! O, pale! Who else? what, Paris too?
And steep'd in blood? Ah, what an unkind hour (Amethyst wakes)
The lady stirs. (He wears a brown Friar Laurence out fit)
-Amethyst-O comfortable friar! where is my lord?
I do remember well where I should be,
And there I am. Where is my Romeo?
-Brain- (they hear some noise with in) I hear some noise. Lady, come from that nest
Of death, contagion, and unnatural sleep:
Thy husband in thy bosom there lies dead;
And Paris too. Come, I'll dispose of thee
Among a sisterhood of holy nuns:
Stay not to question, for the watch is coming;
Come, go, good Juliet, (noise again)
-Amethyst- (she holds Dib in her arms) Go, get thee hence, for I will not away. (he leaves) What's here? a cup, closed in my true love's hand? (she grabs the cup from Dib still holding him.)
Poison, I see, hath been his timeless end:
(she see that there is none of the poison left) O churl! drunk all, and left no friendly drop
To help me after? (She throws the cup away) I will kiss thy lips;
Haply some poison yet doth hang on them,
To make die with a restorative. (she kisses him she does not enjoy this at all)
-Kid playing the first watch man- (she hears it with in) Lead, boy: which way?
-Amethyst- (after she kisses Dib both her and him stick their tongues out in disgust. And Amethyst lets go of Dib) Yea, noise? then I'll be brief. O happy dagger! (she grabs Dib's dagger) This is thy sheath; there rust, and let me die. (she stabs herself and screams in pains and falls on top of Dib and dies. The curtains close and everyone stands up and claps a lot of people have tears in their eyes. The curtains re-open to reveal the cast holding hands and bowing. Zim has a disgusted look on his face and Dib and Amethyst have an awkward smiles on their faces they look like they just did something they really did not want to do which is true.)
-Robot parents- (their hugging and crying) That's our little children up there. Oh why do they have to grow up so fast.
-Professor Membrane- Good work kids. (he continues to clap. They all take one final bow and the curtain closes)
The end
Thankyou JoeMerl!
