Script. Christmas 2017
-2018
Act I
Characters: Girl, Boy and
Elf
Появляется эльф.
Комната, ель, подарки, ночь, горит огонь в камине.
Elf: Oh, the night is so
dark and how many present! And everyone is sleeping. Of course it’s awful to
steal presents from poor children but…they will have enough. And poor hungry
elf is so cold and alone in this terrible and ugly night.
Эльф занят подарками, не
замечает появление детей, которые проснулись ночью для того, чтобы заглянуть
под елку.
Boy: Do you think we will
be heard?
Girl: No. But don’t be
afraid and go ahead.
Boy: Can you hear that?
There is a rustling noise. May be we should come back?
Girl: No. If we come back,
we will fall asleep. And what do we want to do?
Boy: Not to sleep all
night.
Girl: I don’t think
something can happen with us during the Christmas night. Run!
Девочка и мальчик
замечают эльфа.
Boy: Who is it?
Girl: I don’t know. He says
he is elf.
Boy: It’s not true. Elves
don’t steal presents.
Girl: You know, I’d like to
get to know why he is here?
Boy: Yes, let’s go.
Девочка и мальчик
разговаривают с эльфом.
Boy: Don’t move! We’ve
caught you!
Girl: Evil thief of
presents
Boy: You’d better pray
for mercy
Elf: Oh, no. I have no
forgiveness. I am a little and stupid elf.
Girl: And what will we do
with you?
Elf: Forgive me
Boy: Oh, no.
Elf: Oh, my God. Pardon me,
please, but don’t touch my book.
Girl: What is this book?
Elf: Please, pardon poor
elf.
Girl: Answer, otherwise
we’ll throw it in a fireplace.
Elf: I’ll answer, but let
me go and don’t touch my book. If you want to know, I’m not a simple elf. I’m
the boss of elves and the keeper of The Book of fairy tales and magic.
Girl: What is this book?
What it can do? I don’t believe you, you are not an elf.
Elf: I am a winter elf from
the north pole, I am the commander of snow storm, I am the boss of the skies
and the only keeper of The Book of fairy tales and magic. And if you don’t
know, this book has all stories. It is our treasure. It is our heritage. We
are proud of it! But we… we are poor, hungry, lonely and deeply sad elves….. I
am so sorry and I invite you in a world full of fairy tales and miracles. Do
you agree?
Girl: Of course!
Boy: But there is so dark
and cold in the street and there is so warm and cosy at home.
Girl: Are you kidding? It’s
so adventurous !
Elf: You won’t be cold with
my magic. Are you ready?
Girl: Yes!
Эльф открывает Книгу
Сказок.
Act II
Characters: Monsters,
High Witch, Jack
Хэллоуин-Сити. Собрание
монстров, на котором они обсуждают, как отметить Рождество, а заодно испортить
его людям.
Monster 1: There is so much snow
today.
Monster 2: Yes, there is nobody
outside.
Monster 3: Oh yes, we’ll catch
Santa immediately! No way to escape!
Monster 4: We must spoil Christmas!
Monster 5: Ha-ha, right. But how
can we do it?
Monster 6: I think our High
Witch helps us. She is the most evil creature in the world.
Monster 3: No Christmas, no
miracles, no lives!
Появляется Верховная
Ведьма.
High Witch: The world will be in the
dark! We need Santa Clause's magic staff. All forces are in it!
Monster 2: Let’s steal the
staff!
Monster 4: Let’s steal the
holiday!
Monster 1: Immerse the world
into the darkness.
Monster 6: But who can do it?
Monster 3: Who can fight with
the great Santa Clause?
Monster 4: Maybe Jack?
Monster 5: Jack who?
Monster 2: Our Jack Skeleton
Monster 3: Great. He is the
person we need.
Monster 6: He is the most
flexible.
Monster 1: He’s the bravest.
Monster 2: He’s the best.
Monster 5: He’ll do it
Monster 3: (обращается к
Джеку)
Well,
Jack, are you ready for this business?
Monster 4: Are you willing to
sacrifice for our goals?
Jack: I’m ready. I’ll go
through fire and water. I’ll destroy this old man Santa whoever he’ll be. I’ll
steal his staff. I am Jack Skeleton and I swear I’ll steal Christmas.
Act III
Characters:
High Witch, Izi.
Верховная Ведьма ведёт
двойную жизнь: она не только портит праздники хорошим, безобидным людям, но и
преподает магию дочери Снежного Короля и Снежной Королевы. Её имя Изи.
Естественно, девочка, как и её родители, не знает о тёмной стороне жизни своей
«учительницы».
High Witch: Frog’s legs, elephant
toes, children eyes and dead water. Recorded?
Izi: Yes, but these are
forbidden spells and I mustn’t….
High Witch: Silent!
Izi: But I….
High Witch: How dare you argue with
me! I’m a teacher here and I’m here to teach you magic and I don’t want to
hear anything! And mind Isabella..
Izi: My name is Izi..
High Witch: Silent! How dare you
open your mouth! We need to know many things. Now I’ll bring Spellbook and
we begin the chapter about deadly diseases and how to spell them.
«Учительница»
отворачивается от Изи и записывает на доске заклинания. В это время на Apple Watch Изи приходит
сообщение.
Izi: It’s strange.. My
watch shows that Santa is in danger. He needs help. But what is about the
lesson? Should I stay and leave Santa in trouble or should I help him and
escape from this ugly woman? The choice is clear. I have no time to think.
Santa, I‘m coming!
Изи незаметно покидает
своё место и сбегает. «Учительница» заканчивает записывать заклинания на доске
и поворачивается к Изи. Но та уже скрылась.
High Witch: (в ярости) She’s escaped, nasty
girl! How dare she go away from me! You’ll regret it!
Act IV
Characters:
Santa Claus, Izi, Indifferent People.
Несколькими часами
ранее Джек напал на Санту, когда тот ехал на санях на свою фабрику подарков, и
отобрал у него посох. Побитый Санта с трудом добирается до города. Он ничего не
помнит, поэтому просит людей о помощи. Однако люди, которые не признают в
навязчивом старике всемирно известного волшебника, равнодушно отмахиваются он
него.
Santa Claus: Help me people,
please!
Появляется Изи. Только
ей известно о том, что случилось с Сантой.
Izi: Santa, Santa! Dear,
Santa!
Santa Claus: People, help me, help..
Izi: What’s the matter with
you? Who did it with you? I want to help you! Come with me, my parents
probably know what to do.
Изи и Санта
отправляются в замок Снежного Короля и Снежной Королевы.
Act V
Characters:
Jack, Monsters.
Крики, смех и музыка
слышатся за сценой. На сцену выходит Джек. Садится в углу и грустит. Достаёт из
кармана сердце и смотрит на него. На сцену выходят монстры. Они кричат, дико
танцуют. В это время Джек убирает сердце обратно. Они замечают Джека, поднимают
его и облепляют со всех сторон.
Monster 1: Here is our hero!
Monster 2: Our dark knight!
Jack: Yes, it's me.
Monster 3: Why are you so sad?
Monster 4: You look like an old
man.
Monster 5: Relax and enjoy
yourself! We have a party!
Jack: You shouldn't worship
me.
Monster 6: Why not?
Monster 1: Do you want to say we
shouldn't worship our hero?
Monster 3: Our leader?
Monster 2: The man who committed
the most terrible crime?
Monster 4: We will worship you
forever!
Монстры
устраивают хоровод вокруг Джека. Кричат. Джек пытается заткнуть уши, чтобы не
слышать их.
Monster 3: Glory Jack Skeleton!
The greatest monster ever! The most terrible! The most evil! The most
heartless!
Jack: Stop, stop! Do you
realise what we have done? Do you realise our crime? We stole Christmas from
people and organised
something
strange. And what did we get? I am ashamed for each of us.
Монстры медленно
отходят от него. Некоторые даже в недоумении покидают сцену.
Monster 1: Well, I didn't expect
it from you.
Monster 2: Have you lost your
mind?
Monster 4: Let's get out of
here, he is crazy.
Monster 3: That's terrible.
Монстры уходят. Джек
опять достаёт из кармана сердце и смотрит на него.
Jack: A monster... I'm a
monster. Terrible, evil and heartless monster. But why? Am I really able to do
only bad things? I am a villain, Jack Skeleton. Hate it. Hate everything. I
even hate my name. Snow is the only thing I like. It is beautiful and it calms
me down. If only I could turn back the clock and change something.
Джек уходит.
Act VI
Characters:
The Snow Queen, The Snow King, Witch.
На троне
восседают Снежный Король и Снежная Королева. Заходит учительница. Она крайне
раздражена.
The Snow King: Hello. We are glad
to see you and we would to ask you about our daughter's success.
The Snow Queen: Is she diligent in
her studies?
Has she
learned a lot?
High Witch: Your daughter is the
most terrible creature that God has ever created. She is vile, stupid, and
selfish.
The Snow King: What? Why do you
think so? She is a pretty girl.
The Snow Queen: She never misbehaves.
She always studies well and helps us.
High Witch: Well, she is
unbearable at the lessons. She always disturbs me, does nothing and doesn't
listen to me. Today she has escaped from the lesson.
The Snow King: It's not like her.
Maybe you mistake our daughter for another girl?
High Witch: No, I don't. I am
sure it is your girl. I don't know how to work with her. I suggest that you
should lock her up in prison for several days. She...
The Snow Queen: Stop. Don't be so
angry. We are having a conversation with her and finding out what's the matter.
I am sure there is an explanation for this situation.
High Witch: There in no sense to
talk to her. I am telling you she is always lying. You should lock her up in
prison and...
The Snow King: (перебивает её) Enough! I'm tired to
listening to this nonsense. It is our business and it is up to us to decide
what to do with our daughter.
High Witch: Well, I only tried
to help you. However, my point is the same. She is the devil in the flesh. I
wouldn't be surprised if she brought a strange man to the castle. And then you
will remember my words.
Появляются Изи и Санта.
Учительница видит Санту и быстро уходит.
Act VII
Characters:
The Snow King, The Snow Queen, Izi, Santa.
Изи появляется на
пороге родного замка вместе с Сантой.
The Snow Queen: Oh my God, Izi! Who
is it?
Izi: Mum, Dad, don't be
afraid. This is Santa Claus and he is in trouble.
The Snow King: Stop lying, Izi!
What's the matter with you? Your teacher complains about you and it seems her
words are not far from the truth. You know the rules. No strangers here.
Izi: But, Dad, he is...
The Snow King: I don't care.
The Snow Queen: (перебивает
его)
Enough,
stop crying. (подходит к Санте, рассматривает его) I think... No, it can
not be the truth. Come here and have a look.
Снежный Король подходит
и рассматривает Санту.
The Snow King: No, I can't believe
it...
The Snow Queen: Izi, bring warm
clothes and he looks ill.
Изи убегает за пледом,
укрывает им Санту.
The
Snow Queen:
What happened with him?
Izi: I don't know. I had a
message he was in trouble.
The Snow King: The guilty will be
punished. And I apologize, Izi.
Снежная Королева
приносит Санте кружку, он пьет и «оживает».
The Snow Queen: Here is my magic
potion. It breaks a fever.
Santa: Where am I?
The Snow King: We are your friends.
The Snow Queen: What happened to you?
Santa: (оглядывается в
поисках посоха) Oh,
no. Christmas Day is in danger. I was … (пытается встать) I was attacked. Someone
stole my magic staff.
Izi: Oh, that's terrible.
Is there any way to celebrate Christmas without magic? Mum, dad, we must help
Santa.
The Snow Queen: Isi, we need a little
time to think it over.
The Snow King: Izi, you did a good
job today but now you need to rest. I and your mum solve this problem. And you
should do your homework because your teacher has complained about you.
I: Why?
The Snow Queen: Do what your dad says
to you, Izi.
Изи делает вид, что
уходит. На самом деле прячется за шторой.
The Snow King: Using the Crystal
Ball we will find out where the staff is.
Снежный Король достаёт
шар, смотрит в него.
The Snow King: Oh, no. The staff is
in Halloween City! Monsters stole it.
The Snow Queen: What should we do?
The Snow King: It is in vain to go
there.
Santa: But if we can't bring
the staff back, there will be no Christmas and the world will be plunged in
darkness.
The Snow Queen: We must do something
about it. (обращается к Королю) Do you remember the
Magic Wardrobe? Can we use it?
The Snow King: By no means! It must
be broken. We have to find another solution.
Они уходят. Изи выходит
из своего укрытия.
Izi: Christmas is in
danger. Do they really understand there is no time for delay? If I could get to
Halloween City I would surely bring the staff back and save Christmas. I would
pretend to be a little witch, put a black raincoat on, take my spell book, make friends with these
monsters, and finally lay a spell on them. It would be great. (ходит по сцене
и думает). The
Magic Wardbrobe is broken but it is our only chance (подходит к ширме,
отодвигает её, смотрит на дверь). Our only chance... I have to take the risk to
save Christmas and the whole world.
Изи убегает за сцену;
возвращается в плаще и с книгой. Заходит в дверь. В зале гаснет свет.
Act VIII
Characters:
Isabella, Jack, Witch, Monsters.
Звучит музыка, монстры
веселятся. Джек одиноко стоит в стороне. Изи выходит через дверь
портала.
Монстры
озадаченно смотрят на неё.
Monster 1: Hey, where do you
come from?
Monster 2: Who are you and what
are you doing here?
Izi: And I… I’d like to
ask you where I am?
Monster 3: It depends on where
you’ve directed.
Izi: I’m going to
Halloween City to meet
the
monsters.
Monster 4: Yes, exactly it’s all
at!
Monster 5: The most terrible
monsters are here!
Monster 6: But why should we
believe you?
Monster 4: How do we know you
aren’t a spy?
Izi: I have got a spell
book, but I’m not sure…. Are you monsters? You don't look like dreadful
monsters. You are a little bit cute.
Monster 3: We are cute? You, but
do you know what we can do?!
Monster 1: Yesterday I stole 3
bags of apples from the shop!
Monster 6: And I took away a
huge balloon from a little girl!
Monster 2: Even more, I ruined a
snowcastle in the playground!
Izi: Are you serious? What
monsters you are! You are just hooligans!
Monster 3: But we if you want to
know we played tricks with Christmas!
Izi: Why did you do it?
Monster 4: We are monsters and
it’s our job!
Monster 5: Dreadful things and
dirty tricks are ours!
Monster 1: We stole the
Christmas and now we’re celebrating it!
Izi: But how did you
steal it?
Monster 2: Look, the hero of the
day is…. Jack Skeleton!
Monster 3: He’s a bit moody
today, but he crushed down greybeard Santa Claus!
Monster 4: He picked up the
magic staff and whole Christmas with that!
Джек закрывает
голову, Изи садится рядом с опаской.
Izi: Did you steal
Christmas?
Jack: And you are about the
same. For crying out loud? And if you want to know I’d return the staff with a
great pleasure and finish this penny gaff!
Изи и Джек сидят молча,
монстры продолжают свой праздник.
Izi: And what is it? (указывает на
сердце)
Jack: It is my heart but
you wouldn't understand.
Izi: Why?
Jack: You’re
a monster too, monsters are heartless.
Izi:
Untruth! Everybody has a heart, it’s impossible to live without it!
Jack: How can
you tell?
Izi: Mmm..,
I go to school and I know a lot of things. And you , is it true that you’d
like to give back the staff to Santa?
Jack: it is my dearest wish!
Звучит
гром, появляется Верховная ведьма, монстры поклоняются ей. Изи в плаще, поэтому
Ведьма не замечает ей.
High
Witch: The time is ripe for it! We stole the Christmas and stole
enchantment and joy! But we have a new danger. Awful snow rulers turn their
arms against us! We must attack them first and ruin their lives. The nasty
wizards found Santa Claus and are going to help him! Never the world! I, High
Witch (снимает капюшон, все видят, что это учительница),
appeal
to you to fight! We we will destroy these stupid snow rulers and conquer the
world!
Монстры
ликуют. Изи в ужасе, пытается накрыться плащом. Все уходят, остаются Джек и
Изи.
Act IX
Characters:
Izi, Jack.
Jack: What’s
up with you?
Izi: She
is.. Who is she this woman?
Jack: She’s
High Witch, our boss and mistress.
Izi: And
she’d like to go to war to the Snow Kingdom?
Jack: That’s
why she needs Santa’s magic staff, without it The Kingdom is getting weak.
Don’t be afraid they‘ ll win and the whole world will plung into darkness.
Izi: Oh no!
I must give warning the Kingdom. (она бросается к двери, та не
работает) The wardrobe is broken! What to do?
Jack: I don’t
understand why you are trying to help the Snow rulers?
Izi: Because
I am their daughter! I’m not a witch! I’m Isabel, princess of the Snow Kingdom!
I’m here cause of the staff, we need it!
Jack: I’m
sorry, I’m really sorry. If I had changed something!
Izi: Do you
know where the staff is now?
Jack: Yes, I
do.
Izi: If you
give it to me, I’ll be back and the santa’s magic will return back!
Jack: We
return magic and Christmas… I’ll help you.
Izi: Thank
you a lot! I think your heart is very kind and you’re not a monster.
Jack: I’m not
a monster but there’s no place for me in this giant world
Izi: You can
go with me! Help us again to fight the witch and stay with us in our Castle!
Jack: but I….
Izi: We have
no time. Go!
Джек и
Изи заходят в портал.

Монстры и Ведьма в
замке. Бесчинствуют. Снежный Король и Королева захвачены в плен.

Изи закрывает собой
родителей, Джек с посохом ищет Санту.
High Witch: How nasty you are!
How dare you come here?
Izi: I know who you are
your plans!
High Witch: I show you... (не успевает
ничего сказать, появляется Санта, он стучит посохом, все монстры по очереди
замирают).
Witch: And you are here,
greybeard! (Машет рукой, выбивает посох. Колдует, все замирают).
Джек берет посох,
стучит им по полу и ведьма застывает.
Jack: I made many mistakes
but I won’t allow you to win!
Ведьма медленно
исчезает.
Izi: You saved us!
Jack: I?
The Snow King: You! You are a real
hero!
Jack: But I don’t...
The Snow Queen: We’ll always be
grateful for this day.
Jack: but I want to say
that was me, I stole the staff and spoiled the holiday! I’m guilty…
Santa Claus: May be, you were
guilty. The staff doesn’t obey unkind person, only kind heart can manage it!
Jack: But I….
The Snow Queen: Nothing else matters,
you saved us, now you are not a monster.
Джек хочет
передать посох Санте.
Santa Claus:
I think I’m too old to be the guard of this staff. I need somebody who will
take on my responsibilities. You’re worthy!
The Snow King: What is your name?
Jack: Jack Sceleton, I hate
my name.
The Snow King: now we call you Jack
Frost! And I announce you the lord-keeper of Christmas magic.
Jack: Thank you very much.
It’s a great honour for me.
The Snow Queen: But what are we going
to do with the monsters from your city?
Izi: Mum, they aren’t
monsters, they are just naughty children. They are lonely!
The Snow King: That means they
aren’t lonely! They can stay and live in our Castle. Now we need to go,
Christmas is coming soon and we aren’t ready yet.

kind kids! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
