SIDE 1

BLUE FAIRY
See how crazy things get when there are no fairies around?
(to the FAIRIES IN TRAINING)
Speaking of  crazy , who can explain this whole Pleasure Island donkey thing?

(ROSA raises her hand.)

Rosa.

ROSA
Well, first they lure in bad kids...

BLUE FAIRY
And then...?

(ARANCIA raises her hand.)

Arancia.

ARANCIA
Then they turn them into donkeys...

BLUE FAIRY
And then...?

(VIOLA raises her hand.)

Viola.

VIOLA
Then ship them off to hard labor.

BLUE FAIRY
Exactly.

SUE
Seems like a complicated way to breed livestock.

BLUE FAIRY
(a beat)
True.

SIDE 2

BLUE FAIRY
And then what happened? I miraculously appeared and said:
(full of dramatic flair)
Good Geppetto, you have given so much happiness to others. You deserve to have your wish come true.
(waving her magic wand)
Little Pinocchio, prove yourself brave, truthful, and unselfish, and someday you will be a real boy.

PINOCCHIO
(coming to life and seeing GEPPETTO)
Daddy!

GEPPETTO
Pinocchio?

(PINOCCHIO runs across the stage to GEPPETTO and gives him a big hug. GEPPETTO melts into the embrace.)

BLUE FAIRY
(to the FAIRIES IN TRAINING)
Listen to what he said next.

GEPPETTO
(still in the moment)
Finally, a boy of my own.

BLUE FAIRY
(self-satisfied)
Wish granted!

GEPPETTO
(breaking out of the moment)
Hold it, hold it, hold it! That was before I knew what he was like. Things started to go wrong the very next day.

BLUE FAIRY
Like what?

GEPPETTO
Well, like... for instance... You know, this would be a lot easier if you could just use your magic to take us to that day, and I could show you.

(The BLUE FAIRY sighs.)

BLUE FAIRY
 Use your magic. Use your magic. That s all I hear from you people. Okay, fine  we ll go see his first day.
