SCRIPT:
NARRATOR: Once upon a time in a village there was a small farmhouse. In the stable there lived a Donkey who worked very hard for many years.
DONKEY: I am too old to carry loads. I am tired, and I feel weak. My master wants to kill me, so before he does I must say good-bye to the old farm. I am going to Bremen-town to sing and play.
NARRATOR: Donkey walked along the road for more than an hour. Suddenly, he stepped right on the paws of a Dog.
DOG: Oh, please, please, don´t step on me!. I am too old, I can not hunt, and I can not run.
DONKEY: You´re not old!. You look fine to me, so come along with me to Bremen-town to sing.
DOG: Really?. Can I go with you?.
DONKEY: Sure!. Let´s go.
NARRATOR: And off they went to Bremen. Later, they found a Cat sitting in the road.
DONKEY: Now, what´t the matter with you?.
CAT: Meow, Meow!. I am an old cat. I am too old to catch a mouse. I am not even welcome in my own house! I don´t know what to do. Where will I go?.
DONKEY: Come with us to Bremen, come on, and join our show!. We will become town musicians.
CAT: That’s a good idea. I will go with you. Let´s go to play and sing in Bremen-Town!.
NARRATOR: After that, the three travelers passed by a yard. They saw a Rooster.
DONKEY: What is that sound?.
CAT: It´s the rooster. He tells the time throughout the year.
DONKEY: You soud as if you are in danger. Tell us what is wrong. Please, tell us.
ROOSTER: I am in trouble!. I will soon be rooster soup, so I have to run away from here. Where are you going in such a hurry?.
DOG: We are going to to Bremen-Town. Come with us!. Leave this place and join our band.
ROOSTER: Sure, I will join you. Let´s go to play and sing in Bremen-Town.
NARRATOR: The rooster told them that Bremen was still very far off and that they should find a place to sleep. So the donkey and the dog slept under a large tree. The cat got up among the branches, and the rooster flew up to the top. Then he said.
ROOSTER: Oh, look over there my friends!. I see a light!. There´s a house where we can spend the night!.
DONKEY: Let´s go over there.
NARRATOR: When they approached the house, they looked through the window. The house was full of robbers.
DOG: Hey, I can´t see!. Tell me, what do you see.
DONKEY: What do I see?. The house is full of robbers.
ROOSTER: We should be the ones sitting in that nice table with all that food!. That should be our house!.
DONKEY: Yes, indeed, I wish we were there. Let´s make a plan to get those robbers out of the house. Let´s scare them. We´ll sing, and sing, and sing our song so loud until we break the windows . Let´s make them know that we are here.
NARRATOR: Then, they started singing that indeed they broke the windows.
DONKEY, DOG, CAT, ROOSTER: And Yahoo!. Yahoo!. Zan, zun, zin, rim, ram, ren, big honey hen!. Chiquiti boom, chiquiti bam, hobbleham!
ROBBER 1: What´s that terrible sound.
ROBBER 2: Gobblins, ghouilies, ghosts!.
ROBBER 1: They are attacking us!. We have to escape, run, run for your life!.
NARRATOR: The robbers ran out yelling at the dreadful sound. They thought they were ghosts, and away they went into the woods until they could no longer be seen.
CAT: Hooray, we did it!. They have gone away!. Now we can sit down at the table and eat and sing, and dance and play!.
ROOSTER: Why sure!. Let´s stay, let´s play and sing. We are home at last!.
NARRATOR: And they ate until they were full and fell asleep. And the four Bremen town musicians liked the little house so much, that they stayed there to live forever.
