A melodramatic version of the children s fairytale Jack & Jill.

(Jack & Jill enter. Jill skipping/singing and Jack pretending to be educated)

Jill: Come on Jack! Hurry up, we’ve got to get the water.

Jack: We are never going to get the water, it’s all the way up the hill.  Where Esmeralda lives, it’s useless really.

Jill: It’s alright, just skip and all your fears disappear.

(Jack looks reluctant)

Jack: Ok Jill.

(Jack & Jill start skipping and singing merrily. Exit)

(Esmeralda enters followed by Harry)

Esmeralda: Harry, I’m tired of looking at you open the window.

Harry: Yes master.

(Opens a window)

Esmeralda: Ahhhh what a gruesome day it is! Quite Disgusting actually, don’t you think  Harry?

Harry: Not really. I quite like the sun in the meadows with the all the little butterflies.

Esmeralda: I would hurt you Harry but it’s such a gruesome day. Hurt yourself

Harry: Yes master

(Slaps himself)

Harry: Thank you master.

(Harry leaves)

Esmeralda: Now Harry, hurry up and get me a chair.

(Esmeralda sits in chair and glairs out the window)

(Jack & Jill skip on stage. Esmeralda sees something in the distance. Starts squinting as she notices Jack & Jill)

Esmeralda: What is that Harry?

Harry: Children master

Esmeralda: Well of course it’s children Harry, I knew that, now slap yourself.

(Harry slaps himself)

Harry: Thank you master.

Esmeralda: Harry, Quickly, let’s get them before they steal my water from my well.

(Whilst walking off)

Harry: Don’t you mean our water master?

Esmeralda: No Harry, myyyyy water. Slap yourself Harry, there’s a good boy.

(Harry sighs. Exits. From off stage there is a loud clap)

Harry: Thank you master.

(Esmeralda hobbles off stage with an evil smile)

(Super-ish Enters)

Super-ish: I am Super-ish

(Everyone claps/cheers. Super-ish gestures fans to quiet down)

Super-ish: I am strong…(Goes to pick up box…fails)…ish

(Less claps)

Super-ish: I am Handsome…(Looks into mirror…mirror breaks)…ish

(One clap. Super-ish tries to recover the situation)

Super-ish: I can fly…(Jumps)…kind of.
