        The class of 2-A was preparing for their parody of Snow White. Class 2-A was the class of Sebastian, Jack, Luke, Matthew, Catherine, Wyatt, Cynthia and Monet. Cynthia was going through a final light check before students piled into the class room while everyone else got dressed up in their costumes. Jack laughed at Matthew's costume. "We need to take a picture of this to show your future wife," Sebastian exclaimed, laughing hard. 

        "Already on it," Luke exclaimed happily as he snapped a photo of Matthew in a dress. 

        Sebastian laughed harder. "It's going in the scrap books and the year books!" 

        After a while of Luke, Jack, and Sebastian poking fun at Matthew's costume, the audience began to pile in and after a few minutes, it was about to start. 

        The curtains open and the narrator, who was Monet, stepped out. "There once was a kingdom with a wonderful king and queen who together had a beautiful daughter, Snow White," She announced. Matthew stepped out onto the stage, his princess dress and all. The audience stifled a laugh. "But the mother died soon after, and the king decided to have another wife to serve as a mother to Snow White." 

        In came the King and Catherine, playing the part of the Evil Queen. "The Queen would always separate herself from the king and Snow White and go to her private chambers," Monet announced.

        Half of the stage grew dark. A frame of a mirror was pushed out onto the stage. "Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who is the fairest of them all," Catherine inquired the magic mirror which was played by Wyatt.

        "Not you! Am I right? Am I right," Wyatt said obnoxiously. 

        Catherine glares at him and whispered, "That's not in the script!"

        Wyatt rolled his eyes and spoke flatly. "The fairest of them all is Snow white, your majesty." 

        "The queen was furious (for more than reason...)! However, she could do nothing about it for the king loved Snow White so much. However a month later, the king mysteriously died." Monet informed as The King and Catherine were pantomiming the narration. "The Evil Queen saw this as her chance to get rid of Snow White once and for all." A table was rolled out on stage by the stage hands. 

        "Huntsman" Catherine called. 

        Out came the huntsman, played by Jack. "Yes, your majesty? May I ask why I have been summoned," Jack asked with a polite bow. 

        "You are to kill Snow White," Catherine ordered. She took the box off the table. "Take her into the woods and kill her. Bring me back her heart in this box." Catherine handed the box to Jack.

        "As you wish," Jack said and ran off stage to "search for Snow White." 

        "The Huntsman ran off to search for Snow White who was frolicking in a near by meadow." Monet said. The next scene made the audience laugh again. Matthew was skipping all over the stage, supposedly "frolicking" in a meadow. Stage hands brought the flower set props onto the stage. Matthew tripped on one of the props and fell on his face. The audience was struggling to not laugh. "After a while, the Huntsman found the princess."

        Jack walked on stage. He started confidently, "Ma'am-- I mean sir!" He murmured to himself, "Or... what ever you are." There was a pause. "I am here to kill you and take your heart," Jack announced more confidently.

        Monet face palmed. Very quietly, she mumbled, "This is so not going according to script, it's not even funny anymore..." 

        Matthew squealed in fright after hearing these... straight forwardly disturbing words and ran away off stage. "Snow white was so startled by these words, she ran into the forest!" Monet said dramatically. The stage hands took the flower set props off the stage and put the tree props on. Someone dressed in a dwarf costume started to meander onto the stage. "Snow White ran into a dwarf," Monet said, the pitch of her voice going up at the word, "darf." She watched the stage closely so she could improvise. Matthew ran across the stage again na ignored the dwarf "But Snow White ignored him."
