Previous class blogs are all dead, so i never meant to set up one this year.
However, the only way i can let you guys see the national day script before monday is this way, since I don't know all your email addresses.
(Why you guys have to see the script before monday will come in later)
And since this blog has already been set up, next time, notices/reminders will be put up here as well. (But if you want, you guys can post other stuff too).
The account username and password, I will give to you guys on monday.
Before I start typing the script, here are some stuff to take note of:
( ) -- indicates what the caterpillar needs to do
[ ] -- indicates what Phua Chu Kang (PCK) needs to do
{ } -- indicates what Billy Bong (BB) needs to do
(( )) -- indicates what both PCK and BB needs to do
* * -- indicates what the missing leg needs to do
*( )* -- indicates what the missing legs and caterpillar needs to do
here goes (this is gonna be long...):
narrator:
-sitting at one corner-
A long long time ago, in the heart of Singapore
There lived a caterpillar (slowly walk out of entrance1 i.e. right side entrance)
And, oh, it was weeping sore
for it had lost a pair of legs, just how it did not know (sigh)
but the caterpillar happened to be a great singer
and sang a song to express its sorrow
caterpillar:
Said a thousand legged worm as it gave a little squirm (squirm)
Hop around (hop two steps forward)
Hop around (hope two steps backward)
narrator:
As the caterpillar sang its last, it regretted it immediately (hang head)
For the song had made it more sad, and emo almost instantly (pull hair over face)
The caterpillar was almost used to looking like Paul Twohill ((walk out of entrance2 i.e. left side entrance, sit down, eat))
But that was until it saw those two (point at 'those two')
Sitting, eating their meal
At first sign the caterpillar know that they were its only hope (look excited)
To help it stop limping like Mas Selamat (slowly walk towards 'those two')
Asking them was the way to go
caterpillar:
Excuse me, dear sirs, but I need your help
I have lost a pair of legs, and now I have to hop about
PCK:
Well, of course you can count on us to find your missing legs![slap chest in a heroic way]
For we are Chu Kang and Billy Bong [points at himself, then BB]
We're here to save the day!
BB:
With his brains and my Bing Bong Balls, we're sure to be successful{points at PCK's head, and holds up Bing Bong Balls}
Just stay around and wait for us
Dont' worry, and stay cool {does some 'cool' action}
caterpillar:
I shall be ver grateful, if my missing legs you find
Indebted to you, I will be, for the rest of my life
PCK:
Well, let's not waste anymore time
Come on, Billy, we've got a leg to find! ((run out through entrance2))
caterpillar:
Look at them run! Look at them go! (tip toe, do the action that seems like you're looking very far away in direction of entrance2)
They'll find my leg for sure, I just know! (exit through entrance1)
narrator:
And so the duo ((come in through entrance1))
Searched high ((tip toe and 'search')) and low ((squat down and 'search'))
They searched and they searched, but to no avail ((sigh and shake head))
Then suddenly, they heard a sound ((cup left ear))
It wasn't a bird, a plane, but a cry for help!
missing leg:
Help! Help!
I'm crying for help!
*as you say this, keep waving legs and arms in air or something*
narrator:
as our duo followed the cry, they hope the voice wasn't from their minds
((as narrator says this, duo run towards missing leg))
Billy Bong:
Look! Look! I'ts the missing leg! {point towards missing leg}
It's crying! It's weeping!
PCK:
It sure is sad, I say
missing leg:
*by this time, should have stopped waving all limbs, hanged head low, and siffing*
I have been separated from the group
And I didn't know *shrug* where to go
I'd be ever grateful *looks up at duo hopefully*
If you could help make me whole
Billy Bong:
Well, guess what, you're in luck! We {use thumb to point at himself} know where your body is!
PCK:
Just follow us [help missing leg up], and we'll bring you, to where your happiness is!
narrator:
-missing legs and PCK and BB start walking towards entrance 1, slowly, but not too slow-
and so they started on the journey back to where they started from
to bring hte missing leg back to its body, and make everyone happy
(caterpillar walks out from entrance1)
missing leg:
My body!
caterpillar:
My legs! *missing leg joins back of caterpillar*
PCK:
Told you you can count on us!
caterpillar and missing legs:
Said a thoudsand legged worm, as it gave a little squirm *(squirm)*
hop around *(hop two steps forward)*
hop around *(hop two steps backward)*
((during song, PCK and BB stand at one side, smile and clap to song or something))
narrator:
-everyone come around and hug missing leg, they laugh, they clap, whatever-
Though the Bing Bong Balls were never used, they lived happily ever after
Body and legs as one, never separated thereafter
But before we end off, here's the moral of the story
No matter how small something is, without it, nothing would be complete
Just like how Singapore wouldn't be Singapore without you and me
caterpillar, missing leg, PCK, BB:
-as one cluster, all facing audience, share mic and sing-
Count on me Singapore, count on me Singapore
Count on me to give my best and all
Together, Singapore, Singapore!
-everyone hold hands and bow or something, exit-
narrator:
-standing on stage now-
And as the curtains close on our play
The story is done, have a good day (:
-give a small bow, and exit-
-----------------------------------------
FINALLY.
I tried my best to make it not too many lines to remember for you guys, since this is so last minute. (Oh, in case you didn't know, the narrator gets to look at the script, it'll be like a book thing)
Okay.
Now, as to why you guys need to know this before Monday.
Our 'auditions' were supposed to be on Friday.
However, cause no one, cept Sau and I, turned up, we could not act it out for them, so we just passed them a copy of our script, and said the script was fine.
BUT
They still have to see us act it out.
SO
They're gonna do it this Monday, at 11:00 after our PE.
AND
Full dress rehearsal is this coming Thursday, not too sure what time.
(Don't say I didn't tell you)
And before I forget, cast.
I volunteer to be the narrator :D
Then there's
PCK: ??
Billy Bong: Xiang, I guess
Head of the caterpillar: Klarissa
Missing leg: ?? (I think someone told me she didn't mind being the missing leg, can't remember who though)
The rest of the caterpillar:??
Please volunteer yourself before monday through commenting on this post.
No time to set up tagboard now or edit the template whatsover.
So, volunteer yourself.
Or I will happily volunteer you.
JIA(:

LOL i wanna be the missing leg! :D
oops that was me. i'm sau.
uh, i'm not sure if everyone has to be in it. i have to check with the 'people'. but if don't need everyone, i guess it's easier to work with a smaller group? easier to set rehearsal dates as well, since we definitely have to practice at least twice before thursday. i guess.
jia here, anyway.
Jolene here again.
we have chemistry spa on thursday right? so if there is a rehersal wont there be a problem?
wait, we have chemistry SPA?!?!?!?!
why didnt anyone tell meee!!!
-sau
mrs chow said it during our practical. didnt she? and relax. its spa as in practical and not o level spa xD
okay i wasnt listening during practical. nvm i'll ask onglai in school. heh.
sau
yeah, there's SPA prac, but i suppose we can just ask them whether we can go later? maybe we're performing last.
i'll check with them.
oh yeah, maybe the whole class should be the caterpillar, then at the end, when singing hte national day song, no need accompaniment, can sing acappella (is that how you spell it?) haha. yeap
and we are so not prepared to show them our skit tomorrow. hopefully everyone has seen this script >.<
