A Junior duologue for girl performers, 8 years and up. A story for little girls who dream of becoming princesses.
Lady-in-waiting:
(Thinking) Mmmm, let me see If I can make you smile.
(Takes up a position to recite)
There once was Princess named ….
Who at smiling found she was a failure
When the clowns all had tried
To make her split her side
She just sat there and turned a bit paler.
Princess:
I’m sure that is quite funny, but it didn’t do anything but make me feel sleepy.
