Here is my first play it's called A Dozen Carrots!
Characters:
King
Princess Sandra
Knights (2)
Scene 1
(Setting a beautiful garden with lots of flowers)
Ava: Oh Sandra what am I to do?
Sandra: What do you mean fair sister?
Ava: Our father the king told me to go to town and get a dozen carrots.
Sandra: And what is wrong with that?
Ava: Well Sandra my dear sister, he asked me to go, and I do not know why. He could have sent a servant to go but he asked me instead.
Sandra: Well maybe it was something between you and him.
Ava: But what if it was? Then I have told you and I have ruined his plan.
Sandra: Well not completely.
Ava: But it was have been something important or he would have sent one of our servants to do so.
Sandra: Well I won't say a word.
Ava: Thank you.
(Princess Ava and Princess Sandra leave)
Scene 2
(Princess Ava enters with a dozen carrots to the king)
(Two knights are standing silently by him)
Ava: Father I have brought you your carrots. But would it be all right to ask why?
King: Fair daughter I have my secrets and they should be kept that way.
Ava: Oh just give me a clue, father.
Knight 1: The king has important things to take care of.
King: It's all right, all right then, it is a special stew that will be prepared and it needs a dozen carrots.
Ava: But what kind of clue is that? It doesn't explain anything.
King: Maybe not. But that means that my secret remains secret.
Knight 2: That will be all, Princess Ava.
(Princess Ava leaves grumbling with the two knights shooing her away)
Scene 3
(Ava is siting in her room, on her bed when Sandra comes in)
Ava: The hint didn't change anything!
(Ava angrily throws stuffed animals off the bed and at Sandra)
Sandra: What hint?
Ava: Father told me a hint about the dozen carrots.
Sandra: Well what was it?
Ava: he said: "it is a special stew that will be prepared, and it needs a dozen carrots" but that doesn't change anything.
Sandra: That explains everything! Here come with me.
(Sandra and Ava leave)
Scene 4
(Ava and Sandra are in the garden)
Ava: What are we doing here?
Sandra: You'll see.
(Sandra walks around until she finds what she's looking for, then she gets up and goes to Ava)
Sandra: Come right over here.......
(Ava follows Sandra to a little patch of seeds)
Ava: Why is this important?
Sandra: It's important because the seeds are not growing, but when father pours the stew of a dozen carrots in it will be taller than him.
Ava: Why does it matter?
Sandra: Because these seeds are the seeds of growth.
Scene 5
(Ava is following Sandra back inside)
Ava: I don't get it, what are the seeds of growth?
(Sandra stops and turns around)
Sandra: The seeds of growth make the kingdom grow the people are alive because of them. We have food because of those tiny seeds, but don't breathe a word o anyone even father. It is because only father knew about them and he kept his kingdom alive because of them.
Ava: Why didn't he tell anyone else? And how do you know?
Sandra: If he told someone, word would get out and then people from all over the world would be begging for them. But the problem is he only got a small amount and if he has to he'll journey back to where they got them. But I know because I learned about them and I didn't know that it was real until now.
Ava: I'll keep the secret.
Sandra: Good now how about some tea?
Ava: I'd be delighted.
(Ava and Sandra hook arms and leave)
The End!!
