Audition Central: Disney's The Aristocats KIDS
Script: Berlioz
SIDE 1
All right now, darlings. Time for your lessons. Line up.
(MARIE moves to the front of the ARISTOKITTEN line.)
Me first, me first!
Why should you be first?
Because I'm a lady.
You're not a lady, you're a sister.
Mama!
No shouting, Kittens. Use your inside voices.
But Marie cut in line!
Ladies do not "cut" - they deserve to be in front.
That's cheating!
Ladies do not cheat. They get their way.
Mama!
Now Kittens, you must not fight.
But someday we might have to fight some tough Alley Cats, ike the ones we saw today...
(shadow-clawing)
Meow-fft! Meow-fft!
Toulouse! Aristocats do not fight. Aristocats behave like ladies and gentlemen.
Yes, Mama.
Now, it's time for music practice.
But Mama!
It's important to have a well rounded education. You never know when a knowledge of music might come in handy.
(MARIE sticks out her tongue at TOULOUSE and BERLIOZ. DUCHESS lifts her paws, as a conductor.)
SIDE 2
Roquefort!
(pulling back the crate cover)
Hello Duchess. Hello Kittens. Duchess!Kittens! When did you get back? Why are you in that crate?
Edgar put us here!
Yeah, Edgar was the bad guy all along. Who would have guessed that the butler did it?
Go get Thomas O'Malley and his gang of Alley Cats to come back here and help us.
Alley Cats?!? I'm a mouse!
Please, Roquefort. If you don't help us, Edgar will ship us off to Timbuktu!
Timbuktu! Oh, no! Okay, what was that name?
Abraham deLacy...
Giuseppe Casey...
Thomas O'Malley!
Oh, why couldn't he just be named Bob?
