Audition Central: Disney's The Aristocats KIDS

Script: Roquefort

SIDE 1

(EDGAR laughs maniacally. ROQUEFORT, a house mouse, runs up, joins the line and sings a glass-shattering, horrible note as a way to end the song. ROQUEFORT bows. DUCHESS applauds.)

 

 

DUCHESS

Well done, Monsieur Roquefort!

 

 

 

 

ROQUEFORT

Thank you!

 

 

 

 

BERLIOZ

Yeah, you sing great... for a mouse.

 

 

 

 

DUCHESS

Berlioz!

 

 

 

 

ROQUEFORT

Thank you, Duchess. Thank you, Kittens. Thank you all so very much.

(EDGAR enters with a tray of warm milk. ROQUEFORT hides behind the ARISTOCATS.)

 

 

 

 

EDGAR

Lunch!

 

 

 

 

DUCHESS

Meow.

 

 

 

 

ARISTOCATS

Meow, meow, meow.

 

 

 

 

EDGAR

(pleasantly)
Here is your lunch, crème de la crème à la a-a-a-choo! - Edgar. Sleep -- I mean, eat well.

(EDGAR exits, giggling. The ARISTOCATS lap up the milk. ROQUEFORT emerges and joins them.)

 

 

 

 

ROQUEFORT

I've never had crème de la crème à la a-a-a-choo! - Edgar. I wonder how it tastes. Oh, this is delicious, it's double delicious, it's triple delicious, it's... triple delicious plus one.

 

 

 

 

MARIE

You mean quadruple delicious.

 

 

 

 

ROQUEFORT

I'm glad you agree.

(The ARISTOKITTENS yawn.)

 

 

 

 

MARIE

Mama, I'm tired.

 

 

 

 

TOULOUSE

Me, too.

 

 

 

 

BERLIOZ

Me, too, too.

 

 

 

 

DUCHESS

Me four. Let's go to bed.

(The ARISTOCATS exit. ROQUEFORT licks up the rest of the milk.)

 

 

 

 

ROQUEFORT

I don't know how anyone could fall asleep during such a delicous meal!

(ROQUEFORT passes out and snores. The ALLEY CATS take down Madame's home. EDGAR enters on a motorbike. A cat crate is secured to the handlebars.)

 

 

 

 

EDGAR

Nighty-night, Kittens.

 

 

 

 

SIDE 2

 

 

MARIE

Roquefort!
 

ROQUEFORT

(pulling back the crate cover)
Hello Duchess. Hello Kittens. Duchess!Kittens! When did you get back? Why are you in that crate?

 

 

BERLIOZ

Edgar put us here!

 

 

 

 

TOULOUSE

Yeah, Edgar was the bad guy all along. Who would have guessed that the butler did it?

 

 

 

 

DUCHESS

Go get Thomas O'Malley and his gang of Alley Cats to come back here and help us.

 

 

 

 

ROQUEFORT

Alley Cats?!? I'm a mouse!

 

 

 

 

DUCHESS

Please, Roquefort. If you don't help us, Edgar will ship us off to Timbuktu!

 

 

 

 

ROQUEFORT

Timbuktu! Oh, no! Okay, what was that name?

 

 

 

 

MARIE

Abraham deLacy...

 

 

 

 

TOULOUSE

Giuseppe Casey...

 

 

 

 

BERLIOZE

Thomas O'Malley!

 

 

 

 

ROQUEFORT

Oh, why couldn't he just be named Bob?
