The Fairy and the Witch

The Fairy and the Witch

Conventional costume for White Fairy; also conventional witch costume for Black Witch with addition of black mask and hood for face and back of head to conceal identity. The witch costume to be so constructed that it can be easily removed. (Scene: A clearing in the forest, with Witchs kettle suspended on tripod near the Right Front of Stage. No scenery is necessary but an added effectiveness can be secured if play is given out of doors.) (Enter White Fairy from back of stage, to accompaniment of light, lilting music if desired. White Fairy in pantomime casts spell over region by tripping lightly to right of stage and waving wand, thence over kettle, thence to front, thence to left. Exit White Fairy at rear, music ceases.) Black Witch (boastfully) Mistress of this black night am I. Witch and wizard of all the powers of night and darkness I am. Supreme above all good in the Spirit World, tonight on mundane earth. I come to work my spell and my skill in arts malign display. Not all the holy saints, who tomorrow rule the day, can wrest from me my power of nightHalloween! (in derision) A hallowed evening! Oh, ho, ho! Ah, ha, ha!! From that proud eminence brought low by me and now decreed to devilish deeds and dark! Thus shall it ever be. (Calling toward left, off stage.) Come now my hosts of somber reputation. Make merry! With fell design make we night hideous. Come Owl and hoot for me! (Listens, no response, calls louder.) Come Owl! Hoot Owl! (Owl hoots off stage, left. Aside, chuckling.) Didst hear the old fool hoot? (Calling owl) Come nearer Owl, perch thou upon my shoulder. (Owl hoots again very faintly. Pleading) Come Owl, Owl come! (No response.[6] Grows slightly alarmed. Muses) What portends this? Am I now to lose my power as Jove hath so long menaced? Owl has fled and will not come to me. (Pauses, resumes hopefully) Ah, well, in my train come others who will heed and answer me. This night Black Witch must have her way! ......Buy Now (To Read More)
