Characters角色: Aladdin(阿拉丁), Genie(神灯守护神), Jasmine(阿拉丁妻子), Sultan(Jasmin的父亲)

SCENE 1

Genie: Ah, good evening to you my friends. Yes, Welcome to my Land of mystery! Yes, I come from a land. From a faraway place. A place where there are camels, intense heat and more sand than water. But it is home. Well actually this is home. (Shows lamp) Yes, I am a magical Genie, and most of my life is spent in this tiny little lamp.

But… this is no ordinary lamp! It once changed a young man's life. His name was Aladdin, and I helped him find true love. He found my magical lamp and it changed his life. (He sets the lamp down and exits. Aladdin enters. He is whistling a tune.)

SCENE 2

Aladdin: (Notices the lamp) Hey what’s this? (He picks it up) Whew… it’s so dirty… probably just garbage. (He rubs the lamp clean)

Genie: (Genie appears. Aladdin is astonished.) Who are you that calls me from my lamp?

Aladdin: What?

Genie: Who are you? And why have you called me?

Aladdin: I didn’t call. I mean I don’t think I did. Ah… I am sorry to disturb, (Genie interrupts)

Genie: What’s your name?

Aladdin: A…A… Aladdin. Please don’t hurt me.

Genie: (Bows to Aladdin) I am the genie of the lamp I will obey you.

I will do anything you ask. What is your command?

Aladdin: You mean that you live in this lamp and when I rub it you will come out and do any thing I say?

Genie: (Nods) That is correct!

Aladdin: As-sah

Genie: As- sah…? I’m sorry. I don’t understand.

Aladdin: Never mind. OK. First I want to wish for some different clothes, some new shoes… no wait… first I wish that I could leave this place to see the rest of the world… no I wish… Wow, who is that? She is beautiful! (Just then Jasmine enters. She is crying. She sits down. Aladdin makes a sign to the genie to keep quiet and crosses to her) Why are you crying?

SCENE 3

Jasmine: Well wouldn’t you cry if you were me?

Aladdin: Oh I don’t know. I don’t think so.

Jasmine: But he is so ugly and has such small mean eyes…

Aladdin: He does? (He looks around)

Jasmine: …and he’s bald. And just because he is a general in the army my father says that I have to marry him.

Aladdin: Well you don’t always have to do what your father says.

Jasmine: I do. My father is the Sultan… you know he is the king, and if I don’t obey…(She makes a cutting sign across her throat.)

Aladdin: Wow… I guess being a princess isn’t so great after all. There must be something that I can do to help. (Aladdin suddenly has an idea. He looks over at the Genie and at his magic lantern.) Hey, I’ve got an idea! (Suddenly there is the sound of footsteps) What’s that?

Jasmine: Oh no… it’s my father. I shouldn’t be talking with you. If he finds you… (She makes a cutting sign across her throat) Hurry… Hide… Over there… (Aladdin runs and hides. The Sultan enters. Aladdin watches.)

Sultan: Where have you been. I have been searching for you. Well my foolish daughter. Have you thought about my decision? You will marry the general right?

Jasmine: I suppose so father. What else can I do?

Sultan: Wonderful! A wise decision. There is nothing to cry about. You will have a magnificent ceremony, and we shall have a parade in the streets… a band… music… delicious foods…and… (Aladdin interrupts him)

Aladdin: Excuse me Mr. Sultan, sir…

Sultan: Who is this intruder?

Aladdin: (Very nervous) Ah… Aladdin sir. (He bows)

Sultan: What are you doing here? Guards! Guards!

Aladdin: Wait please. I came here to give you a very high honor.

Sultan: A high honor. What kind of high honor?

Aladdin: I came here to offer a more worthy husband for your daughter sir.

Sultan: Better than a general? Impossible!
