Director: I welcome you all to these wonderful auditions for the legendary WIZARD OF OZ! My name is Dirk vonPeter Williams and you can call me Charles. Please stand so I can judge you. [Walks through audience and makes hurtful comments about people. Walks to stage.] You’re all cut. Except you six. You are perfect. Exactly what I was looking for. Get up here… Now why are you here again? Oh, auditions! Yes! So, my assistant here will begin by having you present your prepared pieces. I shall return shortly after locating my salamander named FLUFFY! [Walks off stage absentmindedly.]
Assistant: [Stares in disgust at director] So, anyways. Please come up one at a time and deliver your monologue.
Kevin: [ELEPHANT LOVE MELEDY PLAYING BOTH PARTS EXCERPT. Finishes and slouches over with fatigue and gayness]
Assistant: Straighten up. NEXT!
Gary: [Sings ABC’s to wrong tune with letters missing] … Next time won’t you sing with me?
Assistant: No…. I will never sing with you. Who could possibly follow that?
Lulu: My name is Lulu and this is my inter… interpret… interpreta…interpretive rain dance. [Interpretive rain dance]
Assistant: …That was terrible. Next
Jane: I’m here to present my range of emotions. This is when I’m sad. This is when I’m mad. This is when I’m happy. This is when I’m disgusted. This is when I’m heartbroken. This is when I’m surprised.
Assistant: And this … is when I’m done. Next!
Andrew: [Brings stool he brought with him to center stage, sits and sings “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” line]
Assistant: No no no, Dorothy has to be a girl.
Andrew: No, I really want this part. I really REALLY want this part. I NEED this part. I NEED TO BE DOROTHY. [Starts song again with falsetto]
Assistant: I thought the first kid was gay.
Mia: [PREPS HELLA MUCH] Romeo oh romeo! …
Director: [Enters, interrupting Mia] STOP EVERYTHING! I have found Fluffy and now we can begin. Say hello to Fluffy. [All watch silently. Director looks at all.] SAY HELLO TO FLUFFY!!!!!! [All greet Fluffy apprehensively] Now, shall we start running scenes? To your places! [People look at one another awkwardly. Director takes seat and “readies” self.]
Assistant: [Assistant Director directs individuals to their positions. Gives out parts.]
Director: Let us begin! And, action!
[Actors walk to center. Jane is in the corner, raised above others.]
Jane: Do you have the stuff?
Andrew: [Having trouble finding the right words] Yeah, we got the stuff. But it was super hard… to get… and stuff.
[Lulu runs in circles.]
Mia: I AM IRON MAN.
Director: TIN MAN!
Mia: That’s gay!
Kevin: Heeey!
Director: FOCUS!
Gary: Moooo. Oh wait – rawr.
Assistant: You are a lion! You roar! Ugh! Continue!
[Lulu continues to run around disruptively.]
Andrew: So uh, we got this thing for you. Can we like, you know, get our crap and go? This place is getting way too mainstream for me.
Jane: Am I a god? Do I grant you your every whim? I do not want your stick. Get out! [Points offstage.]
Kevin: That’s like, totally not right. That’s wrong. Cause you know, you said you’d give us our shizz if we got you your shizz so can we have the shizz? That’s just like wrong. If I asked you to get my shizz I’d give you your shizz. Like shizz. Oh, did I say shizz? Shit, my bad. Sorry.
[Gary finds fuzzy, starts wandering stage, eventually walks offstage and into a wall.]
Mia: YEAH! That’s right! UH! [Flexes. Jane stares.]
Director: I need more from you Wizard! Give me something! JOY! ANGER! DEPRESSION! Perfect! Hold that!
[Lulu finds out wizard.]
Jane: Oh no, they found me. Saaadface.
Andrew: I knew it! I hella called that.
Kevin: OMG. Does that mean we get all our – things?
Jane: Yes. Scarecrow, here is your brain. Tin man, here is your heart. Lion, here is your courage! [Wizard holds hand on Scarecrow’s head, on Tin man’s chest, leans offstage towards Lion]
Gary: [From offstage] Yay!
Jane: And for you Dorothy, a way home. Click your shoes together three times… CLICK CLICK CLICK… and you will be home.
Andrew: These shoes are from an authentic Rastafarian merchant from Cuba. I’m not gonna bang them together. [Lays down and holds up feet trying to get the shoes off the floor, feet towards Wizard]
Gary: [Walks on stage right with a map] Where’s Rastafaria? I can’t find it.
Assistant: Where’d you get a map?
Gary: What’s a map? [Gary continues walking, exits stage left]
Mia: So what’s the next scene? [Feeling awkward with Wizard’s hand still on her chest]
Director: GIVE ME A MINUTE. I’M WORKING! I need silence.
[Very long awkward pause, positions with Wizard held]
Assistant: Moving on. Here is your second scene. [Yells out roles]
Mia: [Witch laughter] I am the witch!
Kevin: OMG. It’s like the Wicked Betch of the West guys.
Andrew: I got this. [Throws his ax]
Mia: REFEREE…oh wait my bad. Never mind.
Jane: [Begging] Uh, we need your broom. Please.
Gary: What’s my line?
Director: You’re a scarecrow. Make it up.
Gary: ‘You’re a scarecrow. Make it up.’ [Mocking Director’s movements]
Director: What an idiot…I like him. Now Dorothy, kill the witch using the bucket of water.
Jane: [Picks up bucket and stares at it. Throws it then fails.]
Director: No, you must have feeling. [Kills “Wicked Betch” with style]
Jane: [Fails again]
Mia: I’m melting! I’m melting! [Drawn out, rolls around on floor to exaggerate her death]
Kevin: ICK! That’s hella nasty [RUNS AWAY]
Gary: [Follows another dust bunny off stage]
Director: ENTER FLYING MONKEY!!
[Lulu enters and goes apeshit. Everyone runs away.]
Director: [Walks on to the now empty stage, says as he exits] BRILLIANT!
