Cinderella
The Bard: As you know, in very old times people had no books. They could not read or write. In their free time they gathered together to tell stories and sing songs. At that time there were men who walked about the country, and stopped now at one place, now at another. They sang long songs about great heroes and great events. These men were called “bards”. People loved to listen to their songs and stories.
Later, when some of the people learned to read and write, they wrote down many of these songs. One of them was Cinderella, which tells about great love.
Today you have a nice chance to listen to and to watch one of the greatest love stories “Cinderella”. So, once upon a time…
The 1st Herald: Ladies and gentleman! Citizens of our kingdom! Today the King invites you to the Ball at his Palace. There the Prince will choose a girl to become his wife and queen. All young ladies are invited!
Cinderella’s house.
Cinderella: Oh!! It’s 5 o’clock. My sisters are going to the king’s ball tonight. How happy they are.
There will be music at the ball. I love music so much. The weather is miserable. I’m so tired.
I want to go on holiday once in my life. Unfortunately, it’s only a dream.
I love to sing and dance.
But I can’t go to the king’s ball.
Stepmother: Quick, Cinderella! It’s 5 o’clock. You lazy girl. It’s time to dress for the ball.
Are you sleeping, are you sleeping,
Cinderella, awful girl.
We are getting ready,
We are getting ready,
Where are you, Where are you?
Drizella: Cinderella. Bring me my red dress.
Priscilla: Cinderella. Bring me my blue dress.
Cinderella: Here are your dresses.
Drizella: Where are my shoes?
Priscilla: Bring me my stockings.
Stepmother: Where my gloves? You bad girl!
Cinderella: Here are your shoes and stockings and your gloves, Mother.
Will you have some coffee, please,
With the butter and the cheese,
With the sausage and the bun,
Have your dinner, dear mom.
And you, sisters, of course.
Stepmother: What!! We should keep fit. Practice a healthy lifestyle. Do you know anything about it?
Drizella: How pretty I am in my new dress. (Takes a chocolate bar when her mom can’t see it.)
Priscilla: The prince will dance with me, I’m sure. (Takes a bun behind her mom’s back.)
We sewed on Monday,
We knitted on Tuesday,
We ran on Wednesday,
We jumped on Thursday,
We swam on Friday,
We didn’t eat on Saturday,
And we’ll dance today, on Sunday.
Stepmother: What! Priscilla! I see you are eating chocolate! Don’t say you try to keep fit.
Cinderella: Dear mother, dear sisters, please take me with you. I won’t go inside. I’ll just look in through the window.
Priscilla: What! You – near the king’s palace! It’s horrible! Cinderella is like a pig.
Not very little, not very big
Not very pink, not very green,
Not very dirty, not very clean.
Stepmother: (takes out a long list of chores) Here is the list of household chores for you.
Cinderella: Oh, that much work! I can’t possibly do it in one night!
Stepmother: And don’t you dare not to do it before we get back!
Drizella: Work, my dear.
1, 2, 3, 4,
Cinderella, wash the floor.
5, 6, 7, 8,
Cinderella, wash the plates.
9, 10, 11, 12,
Keep in order all the shelves!
Stepmother: Come, girls. We are late.
Stepmother and her daughters leave. Cinderella is crying.
Mice are tip-toeing behind Cinderella’s back to steal some food. From the other side enters the cat and tip-toes to catch the mice. Then he sees Cinderella crying, stops and pats her on the arm.
Horace: Why are you crying, dear?
Cinderella: My stepmother makes me do a lot of work and I want to go to the ball. But it’s only a dream. There is no chance!
Horace: I’ll give you hand. And here are two more volunteers. (He catches the mice.) Together we’ll do the household chores in no time!
All sing “Old Horace” and do the household chores.
Old Horace
Old Horace lives with me,
When he comes home at three,
He knocks at the door,
He rolls on the floor
And comes to sit with me.
He watches my TV,
He sits right on my knee,
He takes a nap
Upon my lap.
That’s where he likes to be.
Old Horace drinks a lot;
He drinks right from the pot;
His favourite drink
Is milk, I think;
He likes it when it’s hot
He eats food from a can,
He likes it just one way;
It doesn’t last,
He finishes fast,
He eats it every day
He always catches birds,
He doesn’t say a word.
He looks at one
And starts to run.
He catches it for fun
Old Horace isn’t short,
Old Horace isn’t fat.
He’s very sweet,
He has four feet.
Old Horace is my cat!
Cinderella: You are always there for me. Thank you for your help.
Horace: Unfortunately, it’s not in my power to send you to the ball. And you are the kindest, the most beautiful and the most charming girl in the kingdom.
Cinderella is crying again. Fairy enters.
Cinderella: Oh, Fairy Godmother
Fairy: Why are you crying, my dear?
Cinderella: My stepmother and her daughters are at the king’s ball tonight. They are going to dance with the prince tonight.
Fairy: And why are you not there?
Cinderella: Oh, I’m not a lady. I’m only a poor girl. I’m dirty. How can I go to the king’s ball tonight? In this old dirty dress? I have to sit here all alone and work.
Fairy: Now, look here, Cinderella. I can help you. Do you want to go to the king’s ball?
Cinderella: Oh yes, my dear fairy. It’s wonderful! It’s brilliant!
Fairy: Here is a beautiful white dress and here are glass slippers for you. Go and dress, Cinderella. And I’ll take this pumpkin and make a carriage. These mice will become beautiful white horses. But mind, when the clock strikes 12 you must leave the king’s ball. Be careful! The weather is terrible. It’s pouring. Be careful, my darling.
Horace: I gave Cinderella a hand, too. So I deserve to go to the ball. Take me, take me!
Fairy: Yes, you deserve to go to the ball, too. Take this hat and reigns, you’ll be the coachman.
Cinderella leaves accompanied by the song “Singing in the Rain”.
The Palace.

The King asked the Queen, And the Queen asked the Dairymaid: “Could we have some butter for The Royal slice of bread?” The Queen asked the Dairymaid, The Dairymaid said, “Certainly, I’ll go and tell the cow now Before she goes to bed.” The Dairymaid she curtsied, And went and told the Alderney: “Don’t forget the butter for The Royal slice of bread.” The Alderney said sleepily: “You’d better tell His Majesty That many people nowadays Like marmalade instead.” The Dairymaid said, “Fancy!” And went to Her Majesty. She curtsied to the Queen, and She turned a little red: “Excuse me, Your Majesty, For taking the liberty, But marmalade is tasty, if It’s very thickly spread.” The Queen said, “Oh!” And went to His Majesty: “Talking of the butter for The Royal slice of bread, |
Many people think that marmalade is nicer. Would you like to try a little marmalade instead?” The King said, “Bother!” And then he said, “Oh, deary me!” And went back to bed. “Nobody,” he whimpered, “Could call me a fussy man: I only want a little bit of butter for my bread!” The Queen said, “There, there!” And went to the Dairymaid, The Dairymaid said, “There, there!” And went to the shed. The cow said, “There, there! I didn’t really mean it; Here is milk for his porringer And butter for his bread.” The Queen took the butter And brought it to His Majesty; The King said, “Butter, eh?” And bounced out of bed. “Nobody,” he said, As he kissed her tenderly “Nobody,” he said, As he slid down his banisters, “Nobody, my darling, Could call me a fussy man – BUT I do like a little bit of butter to my bread!” |
The Herald: Your majesty, the ball begins in 15 minutes!
Prince comes in.
King: My son!! Why aren’t you ready? The ball has begun. A lot of pretty girls are waiting for you.
Prince: I don’t want to go there as I’m writing a poem.
King: What! One more? It’s really interesting. Read it to me, please.
Prince: The storm came up so very quick,
It couldn’t have been quicker.
I should have brought my hat along
I should have brought my slicker.
My hair is wet, my feet are wet.
I couldn’t be much wetter.
I fell into a river once
But this is even better.
King: How pessimistic!! You should find the girl for your life. When I was young I…
Queen: You found me. Let’s go. Come on.

Friend: I don’t know her, prince.
Friends: We don’t know her.
Prince: I’d like to dance with her. Beautiful lady, may I ask you to dance with me?
Cinderella: With great pleasure.
They dance together.
Prince: I’ve never seen anyone as beautiful as you.
Cinderella: Oh, thank you.
Prince: You are also very polite and kind.
Cinderella: No-one has ever made me compliments!
I think you’re wonderful!
When somebody says that to me
I feel wonderful as wonderful can be!
It makes me wanna say
The same thing to somebody too
And, by the way, I’m willing to say,
I think you’re wonderful – too!
Prince: Beautiful lady, tell me your name.

Cinderella: Who is she? What’s her name?
Drizella: Nobody knows her.
Priscilla: At 12 o’clock she ran away and lost her slipper.
Knock on the door.
Stepmother: Who can it be? It’s too late.
1st Herald: We are looking for the lady who has lost her little glass slipper.
2nd Herald: All the young ladies in this country must try it on.
1st Herald: Please, try it on, Madam.
Drizella: I can’t put it on. It’s very small.
2nd Herald: Now madam, will you try on?
Priscilla: I can’t put it on. It’s very small.
1st Herald: You must try it on too, girl.
Stepmother: Oh, but she didn’t go to the ball!
2nd Herald: The king said all the girls in the country must try this slipper on.
Cinderella puts it on.
1st Herald: You are the last girl we’ve found in our Kingdom. You must be the Prince’s mysterious lady! There is no other option! The prince begs you to marry him, beautiful lady.
Stepmother: What! To marry the prince?
Cinderella: I can’t go to the king’s palace in this dress. Will you wait a little?
Drizella: Our Cinderella, this dirty girl, she is going to live in the beautiful palace.
Priscilla: You’ve always said, Mother, that Cinderella is ugly and silly and we are pretty and smart.
Stepmother: Hush, dears. I’ve always said that Cinderella is a good, kind girl. She will not forget her loving mother.
Drizella and Priscilla: Don’t forget your sisters, Cinderella. We have always loved you.
Cinderella: Farewell forever, dear mother and sisters. I hope I’ll be happy and won’t see you anymore.
Prince comes in.
Prince: My darling. I have been waiting for you for all my life.
Cinderella: Where are we going?
Prince: We are going to the Palace. Are you happy?
Cinderella: Of course. My dreams have become true.
Togehter: A song “Super Trouper”
Super Trouper beams are gonna blind me
But I won't feel blue
Like I always do
'Cause somewhere in the crowd there's you
1. I was sick and tired of everything
When I called you last night from Glasgow
All I do is eat and sleep and sing
Wishing every show was the last show
So imagine I was glad to hear you're coming
Suddenly I feel all right
And it's gonna be so different when I'm on the stage tonight
R Tonight the Super Trouper lights are gonna find me
Shining like the sun
Smiling, having fun
Feeling like a number one
Tonight the Super Trouper beams are gonna blind me
But I won't feel blue like I always do
'Cause somewhere in the crowd there's you
2. Facing twenty thousand of your friends
How can anyone be so lonely?
Part of a success that never ends
Still I'm thinking about you only
There are moments when I think I'm going crazy
But it's gonna be alright
Everything will be so different
When I'm on the stage tonight
R
3. So I'll be there when you arrive
The sight of you will prove to me I'm still alive
And when you take me in your arms
And hold me tight
I know it's gonna mean so much tonight
R
Tonight the Super Trouper lights are gonna find me
Shining like the sun
Smiling, having fun
Feeling like a number one
