BROOKE On a fall day this year, Ms. Walker, Our esteemed drama teacher, Announced there would be auditions for the Woods Mill Middle School fall show. And that it would be quite different than Last year's production of Guys and Dolls... Though equally excellent. MS. WALKER This year's show will be... scary. BROOKE And though no one had actually seen The ghost that was rumored to roam the halls, Still, it made some students a little freaked out To be doing a scary play... in a haunted school. ALL Scary? BROOKE Super scary? ALL Is it monsters, ghosts, or creatures? Scary? TINA Like, how scary? ALL Will we scare our friends and teachers? BROOKE The mood was getting tense, The bus was buzzing with the news. TINA Would we get parts? STUDENT How would she cast? TINA Who would be leads? BROOKE How would she choose? MS. WALKER Yes, this year's show will be scary. The soft, the weak, and the overly sensitive, And of course the superstitious among you Need not apply. There will be chills, and thrills, and suspense! And... a Phantom. BROOKE Zeke! Let's audition! What do you say? It's our chance to do... ALL A super scary play! BROOKE It's perfect! No one knows more about scary shows than us. It's our big shot. ZEKE Hold up, Brookie. We like scary books. And scary movies. I don't even know what a scary middle school play would be. Will it have vampires? Or possessed dolls? Oh! Are we doing Mac— BROOKE It's called The Phantom... So I'm guessing it's a... ghost story. ZEKE Totally. I'm auditioning for the ghost. That part will be mine! MS. WALKER Audition time! (The other students audition for MS. WALKER In the background during the following.) BROOKE I used to get the frights When I turned out the lights. So many sleepless nights, I tried to brave it. But creepy stuff these days Is, like, my biggest craze. No matter movies, plays, Or books, I crave it! ZEKE Scary is our favorite! BROOKE Scary is the best! ZEKE And now we're doing a scary play... BROOKE ...and I've never been more stressed! MS. WALKER Thank you very much, all who auditioned. I will be posting the cast list at 2:20 this afternoon. STUDENTS Is it there yet? Is it there yet? Is it there yet? Is it there yet? Is it there yet? Is it there yet? Is it there yet? Is it— ZEKE Not yet! STUDENTS Is it there yet? Is it there yet? ZEKE No! (STUDENTS) Is it there yet? Is it there yet? (ZEKE) No! (STUDENTS) Is it there yet? (ZEKE) No! (STUDENTS) Is it there yet? (ZEKE) No! (STUDENTS) Is it there yet? Is it— (ZEKE) No, not yet! BROOKE I can't take it! I'm so nervous! When is she gonna put up the cast list? ZEKE Brooke! Look! There's a note for you posted on the callboard! BROOKE Let me see! (Reading) "Brooke Rodgers. Please report to Principal Stine's office. You have been suspended from school." Oh my— But I— What is happening? Aaaah! Zeke! What do I do???? (ZEKE cannot control his laughter.) BROOKE. Wait a second! Did you write this and post it here? ZEKE Of course! Don't be such a donut. Just a harmless prank to cut the tension. BROOKE Very funny, Zeke. (Beat) Why is this taking so long? BROOKE Last year, we did Guys and Dolls, And Zeke and I basically held up the walls. ZEKE Now, don't get us wrong, The ensemble's nice. BOTH But this year, we're gonna win our slice Of the juiciest roles, Of the starriest parts! We've hoped and we've prayed With all of our hearts That this is our time, This is our day, 'Cause we're finally doing A super scary play! BROOKE Ms. Walker said she would have the cast list up by 2:20. ZEKE Well, what time is it now? BROOKE 2:21! ZEKE Oh, come on! This is unacceptable! BROOKE Oh man, what if we get good parts? ZEKE Who cares? (BROOKE stares at him, eyebrow raised) I mean, of course I care. But the main thing is it's scary! We could scare the whole school! With a play! And don't get your hopes up. Remember Guys and Dolls? I was Man 4. It's not even in the script. BROOKE I remember. I was Woman 6. But this is different. This is The Phantom! It's supposed to be terrifying. And we have seen every scary movie there is. If Woods Mill Middle School is doing a scary show, We are needed. We are required. (Dramatically) We are the ones who are understanding of the scary! ZEKE And you were great as Woman 6. It was a definitive performance. But try to relax. A lot of people want to be the lead. I hear Tina may go nuts if she doesn't get it. Like crazy, insane nuts. BROOKE I can't take the anticipation! She could cast me so many ways. And I'd be happy to do anything, of course. But it would be fun if you and I Were the leads in something truly terrifying and— ZEKE Brooke! You're my best friend since kindergarten. You're like my sister. But you're making me crazy. BROOKE I feel nervous, I feel scared, And completely unprepared. And while this feeling's rather thrilling, This not knowing is just killing me! Well, not literally killing me. But this anxious anticipation Creates the most uncomfortable sensation! (In the background, MS. WALKER appears and puts up the cast list. ZEKE, BROOKE, and the other STUDENTS fail to notice.) ALL And this is our time! This is our day! 'Cause we're finally doing a super scary— MS. WALKER Players, does anyone want to know who's playing what in the show? The list is up. (Beat) (All slowly look at each other and then rush the call board.) STUDENTS Ahhh!!! ZEKE C'mon! BROOKE I can't do it, Zeke! Will you go for both of us? You're my best friend! You can do this. ZEKE (Laughing) Ok. Wait here. (ZEKE goes to the board and edges his way in. He yells excitedly.) Woo-hoo! I'm the Phantom! Brooke, is that a good part? BROOKE Zeke! The play is called The Phantom! So the Phantom is probably a good part. Oh, you're kidding. ZEKE And you're Esmerelda! BROOKE (Gasps) This is our time! ZEKE This is our day! BOTH Because we're the leads ALL In a super scary play!
