Tom's TEFL - Drama - Three Billy Goats Gruff

Reading Variety Show songs and drama, performed by Hong Kong primary students after just one rehearsal session. See my website http://www.globalcitizen.co.uk/wp for downloadable TEFL resources.

SCRIPT:
Narrator 1: Once there were three goats that lived on a hillside.

Narrator 2: They were sad and very, very, very hungry.

All Goats: Aiya! We are sooooo sad and always hungry!

Narrator 3: They were sad and hungry because they had eaten all the grass on the side of the hill.

Narrator 4: But on the other side of the hill, across the bridge, there was lots and lots and lots of grass to eat.

All Goats: We should go over there! Over to the other side of the hill!

Big Goat: But what about the big, scary monster that lives under the bridge? He is big and is always hungry for... GOATS!

Middle Goat: Hmmm, maybe he is gone. Maybe he is visiting his mother.

Little Goat: Yeah -- maybe he is on holiday. Let's go across the bridge -- I need grass!

Narrator 1: The goats decide to go to the bridge...

Big Goat: (Looks at the little goat) Ok, you can go across the bridge first.

Little Goat: Me? Why me?

Big Goat: Because you are soooo small and soooo thin...(Looks little goat up and down). If you don't get to the other side of the hill first, you will... you will.... get sick! Oh it would be horrible!

Little Goat: You're right big goat. I will go first and I will eat lots of the lovely green grass!

Narrator 2: The little goat went up to the bridge, and suddenly, the scary monster jumped out!

Monster: WHO GOES ACROSS MY BRIDGE?

Little Goat: (Trembling, scared little voice) It is I, the little goat.

Monster: I SHALL EAT YOU!

Little Goat: No! No! Don't eat me! I am thin and little and really do not taste good at all. Please, wait for my big sister. She is fat, tasty and yummy.

Monster: Hmm, you're right! You are tiny. I will wait for a lovely fat yummy goat!

Narrator 3: The little goat ran across the bridge. Next, the middle goat came to the bridge.

Monster: WHO GOES ACROSS MY BRIDGE?

Middle Goat: (Shaking) It is I the middle goat!

Monster: I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU! I AM GOING TO EAT YOU!!!

Middle Goat: Oh don't eat me. I am just the middle goat - wait for my big brother. He is much, much, much bigger than I am. Think about it. My fat brother would be delicious. Pleeeeeeeese!

Monster: He's bigger than you? Mmmm, ok -- I will wait for him. You can go!

Narrator 4: The middle goat ran across the bridge. Next, the big goat came to the bridge.

Monster: WHO GOES ACROSS MY BRIDGE?

Big Goat: (In a loud voice) It is I, the big goat.

Monster: I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU! I AM GOING TO EAT YOU!!!

Monster: Oh, I don't think so! (Lowers his head) One! Two! THREE! (He charges and hits the monster in the stomach, who falls down.)

Monster: WAAAAA!

Big Goat: Ha ha! Silly monster! Now it's time to get my dinner.

All Narrators: ...And the goats lived happily ever after! The end!
