The Script

Here I have the script of the play that Daniel looked for and is from the play 'A Death of a Salesman'. The start of the script had to be cut out which Me, Liam and Kendall acted out but as it made the play to long it HAD to be cut out.

The FEAR-tre.

Int. Location 1- day.


Mike: Okay we’ve still got some scenes left to run through.

Barbara: Okay which scene first?

Mike: How about the scene starting with Charley, "Everything all right?"

James: Okay ill take charley. Barbara you take Happy and mike you can have Willy.

( Barbara and Mike nod)

(pause)

Everything all right?

Barbara: Yeah, Charley, everything’s…

Mike: What’s the matter?

James: I heard some noise. I thought something happened. Can’t we do something about these walls? You sneeze in here, in my house hats blow off!

Mike: That’s seems to be coming along nicely, how about a scene with Linda and Willy. Barbara you play Linda.

(James leaves the stage)

Barbara: Willy, dear? Willy?

Mike: I was right!

Barbara: Did you have some cheese? It's very late, darling. Come to bed, heh?

Mike: (Looking up)Gotta break your neck to see a star in this yard.

Barbara: Do you mind if I try my scene now? You know my little solo bit?

Mike: Go ahead, we’ll watch from the auditorium.

Barbara: (clears throat) Good evening ladies and gentlemen. Tonight we are going to present to you our rendition of "a death of a salesmen."

(A creak is heard)

(Barbara pauses)

Our cast may be small but we hope you enjoy tonight.

(Another creak)

(Barbara looks up)

Now I hope your sitting comfortably, in our newly built theatre. And so without…(creak)

(looks up)

(screams loudly)

End of scene.


Int. Location 2- day

(Funky music is playing, and the two girls are dancing. The teacher walks in and sits down but says nothing. The third girl joins the routine.)

Mr. Gibb: (Clapping) Well done girls that was brilliant. A couple more hours practice and you’ll be… Nah I’m kidding, it’s looking great.

Ashley: Cheers sir

Jessica: Yeah, cheers sir.

Sarah: (Smiles)

Ashley: Hey jess, that’s the new girl isn’t it?

Jessica: I dunno; don’t think I’ve seen her before.

Ashley: Im sure she is, she looks so pathetic and helpless.

Jessica: (laughs)

Ashley: Hmm maybe we can have some fun jess. Hey you, new girl!

Sarah: Who me?

Ashley: Yeah, come here we wanna chat. (Sarah walks over) So we’re Ashley and Jessica (points at Jessica) So you’re new right? You know this theatre is haunted?

Sarah: Err no it isn’t don’t be ridiculous.

Ashley: It is honestly, a girl was killed in here 50 years ago! She fell down a trap door, lost her legs and then her head got cut off!
