The Elf, The Bunny & The Big Xmas Blowup - Scene 1
In honor of the holidays I’m going to post my play The Elf, The Bunny & The Big Xmas Blowup scene by scene, a couple new scenes every day right up until Christmas for your reading pleasure. Hope you dig it. For information and character breakdown on the play, go here.
Scene 1
(COMMERCIAL FADE IN.
With a crash of rock music, flashing lights and explosions, SANTA CLAUS appears with his Santa’s Sold Gold Dancers and addresses the viewing audience.)
SANTA: Ho-Ho-Ho, MERRY CHRISTMAS, boys and girls! As you know, I never go anywhere without my official Nike Air-Santa High Tops, the only high top athletic shoe that gets me where I need to go, faster, smoother and safer. It’s got a waffle pattern traction tread, built in support where I need it most, and most of all, it comes in all the right Christmas colors; Christmas Tree Green, Candy-Cane Red and my own personal Favorite, Santa’s Snowy Alps. So kids, don’t wait, don’t even hesitate, pick up the phone and get yourself the official sport shoe of the Christmas season.
ANNOUNCER: (Speaking fast, voice-over) Call now and get your official pair of Nike Air Santa High Tops at the low-low price of six hundred seventy-seven dollars and ninety-eight cents, plus twelve dollars and ninety-seven cents for shipping and handling. Order now and receive a FREE pair of official autographed Santa Claus thermal socks. Offer available only as long as supplies last, so call now!
SANTA: Remember kids, if it ain’t Nike, then it ain’t Christmas!
