Sample Text:

Emperor’s New Clothes:

Narrator:             (To Emperor, covering his eyes) I trust you have some clothes on?

Emperor:             (Testily) Of course I have. You don’t think I’m stupid enough to be tricked twice?

Weaver 1:           Worked beautifully the first time!

Weaver 2:           Who would have believed it?

Royal Adviser:    (Spluttering) Well,

Street Child:       Not me!

Narrator:             A mere child! Wiser than an emperor!

Emperor:             (Indignantly) Now, just look here

Weaver 1:           Where would that be?

Weaver 2:           Do tell what we should be looking at?

Weaver 1:           After all, you are the expert (pauses) at looking

Weaver 2:           And seeing what you want to see!

Royal Adviser:    Which was precisely the problem. None of us wanted to not be able to see what should have been there in front of us.

Narrator:             Hold on! Hold on! You’re losing me. What do you mean, what should have been there in front of you?

Street Child:       Oh, let me explain. If I don’t, those adults will only start making excuses for themselves. Talk about ‘Pride Comes Before a Fall’!
