GROUP: DRAMA KING DRAMA SCRIPT Narrator: A long time ago there was a woodcutter who had only

one son. One day he said. Father: I have decided to use all my savings to give you a good education, so that you can have a decent and honest job which will help us survive when I can no longer work. Boy: Thank you father. I will study hard and you will be proud of me. Father: You will leave next week. Narrator: The young boy went to the university where he spent there three years. One day the boy received a letter from his father. Boy: (thinking) My father doesn`t have any money and I can`t stay here anymore. I have to go back. Narrator: When he arrived home his father said. Father: I don`t know what are we going to do. With the money I earned cutting wood, we can hardly survive. Boy: Don`t worry father, I will go with you to the forest and I will help you. Father: It`s hard work, and you`re not used to it. Besides, we only have one ax and we don`t have money to buy another one.

Boy: Why don`t you ask our neighbor to lend you his ax? Father: That`s a good idea and we will buy another one when we have enough money. Narrator: Next day, their neighbor lent them an ax, and so they went to the forest to work. After lunch, the boy said. Boy: I will take a short walk father. I`ll be back soon. Father: Don`t take too long, we still have a lot of work to do. Boy: I won`t. Narrator: When he was in the deep woods, he saw an enormous oak tree. Then he heard a voice calling him. Spirit: Help! Help! Let me out of here! I want to go out! Narrator: As the boy was walking, he saw a bottle in the ground with a little creature inside. Carefully, he picked up the bottle. Boy: What a strange little bottle and the voice is coming from inside. Spirit: Let me out! Let me out! Boy: I will open it! Narrator: As soon as the boy opened the bottle, the little creature started to grow, and grow, and grow, until it became a huge giant. Spirit: Prepare yourself! I`m going to eat you! I have been here

for a long time, and I am very hungry! Boy: Wait, wait before you do, I have to be sure that it was you who was inside the bottlethen you can eat me. Spirit: But it was me! You saw me! Boy: Prove it! Spirit: How? Boy: Get smaller again! Spirit: Very well then I will eat you! Narrator: Then the giant got smaller, and smaller, and smaller, and the boy closed the bottle again. Spirit: Let me out! If you do, I will do whatever you want me to do! Let me out! I will make you rich! I`m telling you the truth! Let me out of here! Boy: You have to promise that you will not eat me! Spirit: I promise. Narrator: The boy opened the bottle, and the little creature started to grow, until it became a huge giant once again. Spirit: Thank you! Boy: How can you help me? Spirit: Take this handkerchief. When you suffer an injury, cover it with the handkerchief, and it will heal instantly. And when

you cover a metal object with it, the metal will turn into silver. Boy: Go now you are free! Narrator: As soon as the giant left, the boy returned to where his father was. Father: Where have you been? It`s getting dark and we haven`t finished. Boy: Don`t worry father. I`ll do all the work. Narrator: The boy took the ax and cleaned it with the handkerchief, and suddenly the ax turned into silver, and broke. Father: You broke the ax! Now we have to pay for it, and we dont have any money! Narrator: The boy took the broken ax and saw that it had turned into silver. Boy: Don`t worry father I have something to tell you. Father: What is it? Boy: Look at it, father this is not an ordinary ax. Father: What do you mean? What`s this? Boy: It`s silver. Narrator: Then the boy told his father about the giant. Boy: We have to sell it, father.

Father: Let`s go to town right away! Narrator: They sold the ax almost immediately, and bought a new one for their neighbor. Father: Let`s go give him this new ax. Boy: And with all this money I can go back to the university, where I will become a doctor. Father: What about the handkerchief? Boy: With this handkerchief I will heal all my patients. Father: I am proud of you!
