Goldilocks & the Three Bears Pantomime Script Excerpt
All the CIRCUS-ACTS have gathered in the Big Top & are waiting for our heroes to return.
JAMIE: Has anyone seen Dame Barnum? I’m getting worried about her.
PSYCHIC: (Dramatically) Fear not... I can sense her, she’s coming now!
GOLDILOCKS enters.
GOLDILOCKS: Hey everyone, are the others back yet?
SAMPSON: Not yet. But Psychic Cheryl predicted Dame Barnum’s arriving any second now.
GOLDILOCKS: Well, I am her daughter, so it’s an easy mistake to make.
Everyone laughs.
PSYCHIC: Wait... I can feel her presence approaching…
RINGO enters.
GOLDILOCKS: Ringo, you made it! Are you alright?
RINGO: Just about. Where are the others?
GOLDILOCKS: We’re still waiting for them.
PSYCHIC: (Confidently) Wait no longer, for Dame Barnum is here!
BARON VON TRAKMIND enters.
BARON: Blimey, those bears were terrifying!
GOLDILOCKS: I know, it was awful.
JAMIE: Yeah, but not as bad as Psychic Cheryl’s predictions, that’s three times she’s got it wrong!
SAMPSON: What are we going to do if she never comes back?
PSYCHIC: I fear Dame Barnum will not return and she is lost to the forest forever.
DAME BARNUM enters.
DAME: I’m home!
PSYCHIC: (Exasperated) I don’t know why I bother.
JAMIE: Did you get the Honeypot back?
DAME: No, and I don’t think we ever will. There’s nothing else for it, I’ll have to sell the circus to Madam Meanie.
Everyone gasps. There is an evil chord as MADAM MEANIE enters.
MADAM MEANIE: Dame Barnum, that’s music to my ears.
GOLDILOCKS: Mum you can’t, Madam Meanie is horrible!
