THE WIZARD OF OZ
PLAYSCRIPT 2005-2006
ACT 2
.
When Dorothy and Toto went out of the house they saw tall trees, beautiful flowers and little houses with blue doors.
.
DOROTHY: (Giving a cry) This isn´t Kansas, Toto!
.
Three very short men dressed in blue hats, coats and trousers, and a little old woman in a beautiful white dress appear.
.
DOROTHY: (Very surprised) And who are these people?
.
WOMAN: (Walking up to Dorothy) Thank you, thank you! Now the people are free!
.
3 MUNCHKINS: Yes, we are freee! Thank you!
.
DOROTHY: Why are you thanking me?
.
WOMAN: You killed the Witch of the East. She was a bad witch.
.
3 MUNCHKINS: Yes, a baaaad witch...
.
WOMAN: ...and her people, the Munchkins, were very afraid of her.
.
3 MUNCHKINS: Yes, veeeeery afraid...
.
WOMAN: (Looking angrily at the Munchkins because there were all the time repeating what she said) Now she´s dead,
.
3 MUNCHKINS; Yes, deeead...
.
WOMAN: (Looking very angrily at the Munchkins) and me and the Munchkins want to thank you...
.
3 MUNCHKINS: Yes, (suddenly interrupted by the witch).
.
WOMAN: (Looking very angrily at the Munchkins, interrupting and shouting at them) Shut up you three!
.
The little old woman and the three little men all smiled happily at Dorothy, but Dorothy still didn´t understand.
.
DOROTHY: But I didn´t kill anybody! (confused)
.
WOMAN: Your house fell on the witch (The little woman laughed) Look! You can see her feet!
.
Dorothy looked down. She could see two feet with red shoes under the house.
.
MUNCHKIN 1: Look! Her feet are disappearing in the hot sun! (pointing at the feet)
.
WOMAN: Good! (She picked up the shoes and gave them to Dorothy) They are your shoes now. You must wear them, because these shoes can sometimes do wonderful things. (Dorothy is holding the shoes all the time)
.
DOROTHY: Thank you, but who are you? Are you a Munchkin too?
.
WOMAN: No, but I´m their friend (the Munchkins smile at the witch, the witch smiles at them a bit forced) I´m the Witch of the North, and I came to see the dead Witch of the East. But don´t be afraid, I´m a good witch.
.
DOROTHY: But Aunt Em says witches don´t exist.
.
While the Witch is speaking the three Munchkins are all the time nodding, looking at each other and smiling at the witch.
.
WOMAN: Oh yes there are! Here in the country of Oz we have four witches. The witches of the North and the South are good witches, but those of the East and the West are bad witches. Now the witch of the East is dead so there is only one bad Witch left. We have a famous wizard too. We call him the Wizard of Oz, and he lives in Emerald City. How many witches and wizards do you have in your country?
.
DOROTHY: We don´t have any. (Thinking...) How can I get back to Kansas?
.
3 MUNCHKINS: Kansas?
.
WOMAN: Where is Kansas? I don´t know a country called Kansas, so I can´t tell you the way.
.
DOROTHY: (starting to cry) Oh dear, what can I do?
.
WOMAN: Please, don´t cry! Go and see the Wizard of Oz. He´s a good wizard, and perhaps he can help you. It´s a long way, and you must walk there. I can´t go with you, but I can give you a kiss. (The Witch kisses Dorothy) Now nothing can hurt you.
.
MUNCHKIN 2: (Pointing to the path) Look, there is the road to the Emerald City. It is made of yellow bricks.
.
MUNCHKIN 3: You can´t lose your way, just follow the yellow road!
.
3 MUNCHKINS: Goodbye!
.
WOMAN: Here you have a bag with some bread and some apples. Goodbye my dear child and remember to follow the yellow road.
.
Dorothy takes the bag the witch has just given her, she puts it around her shoulder. Then she puts on the red shoes.
.
DOROTHY: Come on, Toto! We´re going to find the Wizard of Oz.
