- O: Hello everyone we’re here today to tell you the tale from wonderland. V: Hurry up! I don`t have the whole day. L: Down with their heads down with it! D: Look at this we are all mad in here. V: How about you, Alice hurrying up and telling the story for now? O: It was quite a nice day in May… V: I don’t think it was May more like June! O: I’m quite sure it was May! D: If it was May it was a mad Man! L: Down with May’s head! O: No matter what month it was I was getting a little bored… V: A little you seemed more like very bored to me. O:
(raising voice) and when I was at the worst state of boredom this rabbit (points finger at Vio) was hopping past me while saying something like „Oh dear! I shall be too late! “ V: I have to say I wasn’t hopping I was running! Very fast since I was running late! O: This might have been so but please you said yourself we are in a hurry how about not caring about such minor details? V: Minor details? These aren’t minor details! D: If like this or that we all are mad so why should we worry about this? L: I don’t remember being mad! Down with your head now! (D, V; L looking at each other fiercely) O: Back then I decided to follow him. And so my journey to wonderland began. After falling through a rabbit hole that was bigger than anything I’ve seen before wandering through corridors and ending up in a great room where hundreds of doors I checked all of them but they all were locked. As I was looking around I came across a table with a tiny golden key after trying around all the doors two times I found a door where it fitted but this door was way too small for me. After my size was fitting due to the usage of a „drink me“ bottle the key was no longer in reach. So I ate the cake with the „eat me“ sign. As I was growing way bigger than I should I was so frustrated I began crying. Then when I somehow got small again I ended up in a pool of my own tears, where I met a mouse and several other animals we all swam to the shore together and were really wet when we got out. After several tries to get us dry again I spoke of my cat Dinah and they all moved off on various pretexts. Then you (points finger rat V) came across me mistaking me for your housemaid Mary Ann. V: A horrible mistake I never plan on making again. O: So I ended up in your house actually trying to fetch you your gloves. V: But you only made a mess! O: Yes I did. My only mistake was to be too curious about that bottle on your desk. V: You sure caused a huge ruckus! O: In the end I ran off and it was as if nothing happened. V: For you maybe but I had to repair the house and the poor Bill… O: Yes throwing him up the chimney was a little much, but I was scared of him! I didn’t know what was coming to me! D: This sure seems like quite the crazy encounter. O&V: (not necessarily unisono) Oh yes it was horrifying. L: Then down with your heads! O: Oh no I plan on keeping my head exactly where it is now! L: What insolence how can you dare to talk like that to me?! O: Afterwards I met the Caterpillar. We talked quite a while and I even recited a poem for him but it came out all wrong. Then he was telling me about a way to regain my original size. The mushroom on which he was sitting had two sides he said - even though I saw it as perfectly round - where one would make me grow and one shrink. As I nibbled on them I found myself after trying several sizes nine inches high. (22.9 cm) Then I went inside the small house I’ve seen before. In there were in a large kitchen which was full of smoke a Duchess sitting on a stool nursing a baby a cook certainly using way to much pepper for the soup and – as the Duchess told me – a Cheshire Cat. The Duchess nursed the baby in a way that I began to really pity it and as the Duchess told me I should nurse it because she has to go play croquet with the queen I nursed it for quite a while as it began grunting. In the end the little child turned into a pig and I was unable to avoid the thought that some children as well might make better pigs than adults. Then you (points at D) startled me by suddenly sitting on a tree only a few yards of. D: It’s not like it matters where in this mad world I sit around I always startle someone. O: You do like to startle people don’t you? D: I think I told you already: This world is mad anyway. No matter what I do there’s nothing going to happen even if I startle everyone. O: Oh no please don’t I’m quite sure some old ladies might die of the shock. D: But it’s not like in this mad world anyone cares about anything. (Grins) O: I do care! And I think everyone else around here as well! No? (Looks at spectators) (Break) D: The silence speaks for itself doesn’t it? O: It doesn’t! But we strayed of the topic. D: Does it matter? O: It does. I was asking you for direction back then. D: Yes asking for directions not knowing where you want to go to. You sure are a mad one. O: You still call me that! D: Oh yes I do. Since it is true I do have the right to don’t you think? O: You’re confusing me. *sigh* D: Shouldn’t you be mad? Why be confused? O: Can’t I be both? D: How should I know ask that yourself. O: Anyways I chose to go to the March Hare where I got to see a very strange tea party… D: Mad tea party you mean. V: Now Let her finish her story I have to go. O: Mad Tea party then where the March Hare and the Hatter actually in the end tried to put their companion a Dormouse in the tea can. Afterwards I left and got onto the queens croquet-ground where three gardeners painted a white rose tree red. As I looked at them curiously a procession came into our direction. L: Oh yes it was then when we first met I think? O: yes it was. You were asking me who I was and who your gardeners would be and as I said it’d be no business of mine you begun to shout… L: Off with her head! O: I thought of this as nonsense and said so and the King told you to consider that I only am a child. So you then decided to behead the gardeners. I thought it would be quite a mean decision considering trough how much work they were going just because they wanted to do it right so I hid them in an empty flower pot. L: You did WHAT?! Off with her head! Behead her! Now! O: Then you invited me to play croquet with you… L: I wish I never had. O: It was quite a strange kind of croquet. The croquet balls were live hedgehogs, and the mallets live flamingos, and the soldiers had to double themselves up and stand on their hands and feet to make the arches. Of course the flamingos weren’t too comfortable with hitting hedgehogs with their heads, neither were the hedgehogs with being hit nor the soldiers so all did their best to get out of it the least hurt and since everyone played at once this was the most strange croquet game I’ve ever seen. L: I always play croquet like that what’s wrong with it? O: Then you (points finger at D) appeared again and we were talking. You nearly got me beheaded with your stupid questions by the way. D: and you got me beheaded with your “A cat may look at a king.” O: But you were not. L: Yes and that is a pity. This stupid executioner you can always behead someone whether there is a body to cut it from or not. O: This was exactly what the king said if I remember right you were saying something more like: “If something wasn’t done about it in less than no time you’d have everybody executed.” That sure made the whole party quite anxious. L: You had no better Idea than asking the Duchess so don’t put the blame on me! O: Afterwards I got in quite a strange talk with a mock turtle and a Gryphon but I’ll leave this out due to it being so strange and weird that even now I don’ t really understand the sense of it. So to skip to the beginning of the trial: It was that this trial was the first I visited so I was utterly curious what was going on. But as the juryman wrote down their names so that they won’t forget them before the end of the trial I had to think of them as stupid and I said so. That was when you (points finger at V) shouted. V: I told the crowd to be silent in the curt since such a trial is a long procedure I had to hurry it up a little. O: After a lot of useless witnesses and useless Ideas I who was growing throughout the whole trial was called out to be a witness and since I got very big I threw over all the jurymen and all of them had to be put again. After this I was asked questions I knew nothing about and so the king invented a rule that all people more than a mile high had to leave the court I wasn’t a mile high and since he (points finger at D) showed new evidence I was allowed to stay. D: My evidence was a very important poem. O: they all began interpreting all kinds of things into the poem to make the knave of hearts the one at fault. As then the Verdict… L: Sentence first Verdict afterwards! O: The Queen of hearts decided the sentence should be coming before the verdict. What was utterly stupid and as I said so she turned purple… L: PURPLE?! How dare you accuse me... O: Purple and began screaming of with her head. But as I had back my original size that moment I didn’t care anymore and when I told them that they’re nothing more than a pack of cards they turned into one and they came as cards flying upon me. Then I woke up on my sister’s lap and as I finished telling her about this dream I already had to run for my tea.Suggested Collections
