Audition Central: Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer JR.

Script: Santa Claus

SIDE 1

(SAM)

We call it Christmastown - better known as the North Pole - here's our Christmas Tree Forest - the place where I grew up. It's a nice place to live, you know. Of course, the number one citizens up here are the Clauses, Santa and Mrs. - first castle on the left. Matter of fact, only castle on the left. Why, here they come now.

(SANTA and MRS. CLAUS cross the stage. MRS. CLAUS carries a bowl and a large wooden spoon.)

MRS. CLAUS

Papa! You haven't touched a morsel. I'll have to take this suit in. Eat.

SANTA

(exiting)

I'm busy Mama. It's almost Christmas!

MRS. CLAUS

(exiting after SANTA)

Whoever heard of a skinny Santa? Eat! Eat!

SAM

Now don't any of you worry about Santa. Mrs. Claus will have him plenty fattened up by Christmas Eve. It's always the same story.

SIDE 2

SANTA

Ho ho ho! Ho ho ho!

MRS. CLAUS

Eat now - ho ho ho later-

(MRS. CLAUS feeds more food to SANTA as the ELVES continue to prep the sleigh.)

(SANTA continues to eat then "balloons up" in front of our eyes.)

(MRS. CLAUS)

Let me check! Turn!

SANTA

Aw - Mama-

MRS. CLAUS

Now, shake when you laugh.

SANTA

Ho ho ho! Ho ho ho!

MRS. CLAUS

Now that's my Santa.
