“BARBIE AND THE SECRET DOOR”

(A Musical Play)

Adapted by: Lj Angeline Tenorio.

Brookhurst

The Equestrian Club has asked if you might say a few words… Before their exhibition
this afternoon.
Princess Alexa
You mean, a speech? Not for the horses, I’m guessing.
Brookhurst
I believe the two-legged members of the club, will be there as well, Your Highness.
Princess Alexa
A speech? I can’t do that. Hooh. (deep breath)

Enters a music:

(“What’s Gonna Happen?”)

All I really want to do

Is stay right here

Away from prying eyes

‘Cause I really gotta get

To chapter three

And see if I’m surprised

Will the princess slay the dragon?

Will she save the day?

Will she find a brand new world?

That takes her breath away?

Chorus:

What’s gonna happen?

 I can’t wait to see

What’s gonna happen?

It’s all the mystery

I need to turn the page

Prepare to be amazed

See if she’s got it made

It’s nothing I’d expect

What’s gonna happen next?

Brookhurst

Princess Alexa? The prince of Hilgovia has arrived for tea. Your grandmother says she
would be, very pleased if you would join them.

Princess Alexa
All I really wanna do

Is hide right here

And start on chapter 4

Maybe this is where

The princess save her friends

And claims her just rewards

Will she shoot a

Perfect arrow

Will her aim be true?

Will she met her mighty foe?

And know just want to do

Chorus:
What’s gonna happen?

I can’t wait to see

What’s gonna happen?

 It’s all the mystery

I need to turn the page

Prepare to be amazed

See if she’s got it made

It’s nothing I’d expect

What’s gonna happen next?

Mother

The dance instructor is waiting, and so are your friends. Oh, well no more excuses. The
ball is tonight; you must finally learn to dance like a princess. Come now.
Princess Alexa
Yes, mother.
Nori
Psst! Hello, is anyone there? … Ow! Hi, come on Romy, we have friends!
Nori and Romy
Hi!
Romy
Oops! Oops! Oops!
Nori
Has everybody seen a magical princess?
Romy
Where did she go?

Oops! Nori don’t we forget something.

Nori
Oops! Yes, hi I’m Nori.
Romy
And I’m Romy. And we are looking for a magical princess, because we need help, we
see a princess who are stealing all the magic in the kingdom and we can help and try to
stop her. We must hurry up and look for her, we will be back! Come on Nori.
 Nori
Coming!
Princess Alexa
Sorry I’m late Brookhurst and Mr. Primrose. Oh my god! Caught up reading this book,
now. Kidding all this dancing really isn’t my favorite. I know it’s tradition for me to
dance but, everyone would be watching me. Ow! I wish that you can do it for me, and if
you saw me last time I can play over Mr. Primrose (laugh) and then, we’re both fell flat
on the floor (laugh). I really know my getting speech is ongoing to false. I got this book
from my grandmother. Listen!

In a kingdom, far away little magical princess she could make flowers bloom or
changing color of your outfits. How cool would that be if I had magic.

Enters a music:

(“If I had Magic”)

My bed would make itself

New books on every shelf

And then I’d cast a spell

Abracadabra

My pets would talk to me

And then we’d all have tea

Create a pair of shoes that would know all the moves

I’d always find the groove

Feel the beat now

And with the spotlight on

I’d twirl perfectly

Chorus:

If I had magic

Magic, magic

If I had magic

Magic, magic
I’d make a chocolate lake

Turn cabbage into cake

I’d text without mistakes

L.O.L, yeah

I’d dream a pair of wings

And I would fly away

I’d zoom across the sky

Make it snow in July

I’d wouldn’t be so shy

Pleased to meet you

I’d do just what I want

Like every single day

Hey!
Chorus:

If I had magic

Magic, magic

If I had magic

Magic, magic

And I could do anything

Suddenly I would be

Everything that I dreamed

I could be
Chorus:

If I had magic

Magic, magic

If I had magic

Magic, magic

If I had magic
 Magic, magic

If I had magic

Magic, magic

If I had magic

Princess Alexa
Ooh! WOW!

(shocked)
Nori
Intruder! Who are you?
Romy
What do you want?
Princess Alexa
Ahmm…
Nori
You’re a princess.
Princess Alexa
Ahmm. I’m Princess Alexa.
Nori
Ow! Your Highness.
Romy
Your Princessness.
Nori
What are you doing?
Romy
I’m bowing.
Princess Alexa
I’m sorry. Maybe I should go back the way I came and...
 Nori
Uhn. No, stay.
Romy
You can help us. She can help us. (looking at Nori)
Princess Alexa
What are you talking about? Help with what?
Nori
Enters a music:

(“You’re Here”)

It’s wasn’t very long ago

Malucia came

She took my wings away

All of my magic was gone

That was my darkest day

But now

My luck’s gonna change

Romy
And I’m ashamed to say

Malucia came

And she took my tail away

No more swimming for me

That’s what my darkest day

But now

My luck’s gonna change

Nori and Romy
‘Cause you’re here

You’re here
All of our problems disappear

This is solving everything

Romy
I got my tail!
Nori
I got my wings!
Nori and Romy
And it makes me wanna sing

Because you’re here

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na

You’re here

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na

You’re here

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na

You’re here

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na

Hey!

Hey! Hey!

Hey!

Hey! Hey!

You’re here!

Princess Alexa
Ahuh.
Romy
Woah! Aah!
Nori and Dancers
Mermaids
 Romy
Oops! Stil getting used to my new centre of gravity. Heh!
Nori
You’re Highness. You’re the one who can help us.
Princess Alexa
Look, I’m very sorry to hear about this but...
Nori and Romy
Malucia!
Princess Alexa
And what she did to you? But, I can’t help anyone.
Romy
Well, heh. Sure you can.
Nori
With your magic.
Princess Alexa
I hate to disappoint you but, I don’t have any magic.
Nori and Romy
(laugh)
Romy
I’m sorry, it’s this pure oxygen. You land folks breath heh. Making me dizzy. Where
were we?
Nori
The princess was informing us that she doesn’t have any magic.
Romy
So, you don’t know about the wand in your hair?
Princess Alexa
Wand? I have no idea where this came from.
 Nori
Or the gown. How else does a princess dress?
Princess Alexa
Well, for hanging out around the castle, I usually wear something like...
Nori
Wait! Sniffers!
Romy
Ah! Oh no!
Nori
Malucia’s minions. They’ll smell your magic.
Romy
Dive!
Nori
You get the princess to the groove and I’ll throw them off the scent.
Romy
No time. I’ll get the princess to the groove and you throw them off the scent. Come on
Alexa!
Malucia

Hmm… I smell her magic wafting through the air, all fairies have it. Only experts like
me can detect it. Ow! You’re no unicorn but there’s magic in your wings and I want it
all. So gimmie!

Enters a music:

(“I want it all”)

There’s nothing that’s more tragic

Than a princess without magic

And so I must take what I need from you

It may seem an imposition

But hello, I’m on a mission!

 There’s no one can stop me

And there’s nothing you can do!

Chorus:

I want it all

I want it now

Don’t tell me no

Just tell me how

You see this crown?

It means bow down!

What I want is really very small

I want it all

That’s all.

Alexa
Enters music:

(“I’ve got magic”)

I can make flowers bloom

And change their colors too.

This pink looks better blue

How amazing

I think of butterflies

Suddenly here they are

I simply flick my wrist

And that turns into this

I think I’ve the gist

Who believe it?

It’s like a crazy dream

And somehow I’m the star

 Chorus:

‘Cause I’ve got magic

Magic, Magic

I’ve got magic

Magic, Magic

I can change what you wear

And even style your hair

Float teacups through the air

One lump or two?

And for the final touch

A chocolate fudge soufflé- hey-ey

I think I like this world

Feel like a different girl

You wanna strings of pearls

I can do that

Oh this is so much fun

It’s like a brand new day hey-ey

Chorus:

‘Cause I’ve got magic

Magic, Magic

I’ve got magic

Magic, Magic

I’ve got magic!

Alexa
Nori! Romy! I just had a great idea. I can use my magic to change you back into a fairy
and a mermaid.
Romy
Finally, these legs are so impractical.
 Nori
Um, you can do that?

Romy
She’s a princess. She can do anything.
Princess Alexa
Ready?
Romy
Yes!
Princess Alexa
Hah! Hah! Hah!

I don’t understand and… and here I thought I was getting really good at this.
Nori

You are. But I guess you can’t put back what Malucia stole. Maybe it has to come from
her.
Romy

That’s right! From her scepter that’s where our magic is. We get that, we got our magic
back.
Nori
Romy’s right.
Romy
I am?
Nori
With a princess on our side, we can fight Malucia and get her scepter.
Princess Alexa

Nori, I... making flowers bloom and changing outfits is one thing. But fighting an evil
princess? I don’t think I can do that.
Nori
But Alexa?
 (walking out)

Nori
Nola! Your wings!
Nola
I had to walk from the castle.
Nori
Did anyone follow you?
Nola
I don’t think so. But, they’ve found the queen unicorn.

(all shocked)

Malucia’s on her way there right now to capture her and steal her magic.
Princess Alexa
And… if she does?
Romy
If Malucia takes the queen’s magic, then gets a hold of these three.
Romy and Nori
She’ll be unstoppable.
Nori

Romy and I will get the queen and bring her here. Everyone else, stay and protect the
unicorns and each other.
Romy
We have to hurry! Malucia might be there already.
Nori
Ugh! Of all times not to have wings.
Princess Alexa
I have an idea. Remember the story about the boy and the flying carpet?
Nori
What’s a carpet?
 Romy
What’s a boy?
Princess Alexa
Never mind. Come on!
Malucia
Ow! I heard about Princess Alexa and her magic. I’ll just have to get it later.
Princess Alexa
Hello! Is anybody he--- Nori? Romy?
Nori
Alexa! Malucia took everyone’s magic and the unicorns.
Princess Alexa
Oh no!
Nori
Why did you come back?
Princess Alexa
I just had to.
Nori

After Malucia captured us, she forced us to leave up to the kingdom and then she stole
all the magic.
Princess Alexa

No! Everyone, I know you feel helpless right now but I still have my magic “You will
never know what you can do unless you try”. Come on!
Princess Alexa
We formally surrender to the great and powerful
Malucia

Ow! I remember you to. You put up quite a fight when I took your magic, but you’re
not a fairy or a mermaid.

Princess Alexa

I’m a princess.
 Malucia
Hmp! I’m the princess around here. I bet you don’t even have real magic.
Princess Alexa
I do. I’ll make a deal with you.
Malucia
What kind of deal?
Princess Alexa
Give back everyone’s magic and I’ll let you go.
Malucia

You… let me go? (laugh). That’s really funny. Isn’t that funny? (laugh). Alright, princess
imposter pants let’s see what you’ve got.

Enters magical music:

Malucia
Ah! Impressive. Now you did it, you ruined my party!
Nori and Romy
Alexa!
Princess Alexa
Aaah!
Malucia
(laughing)
Princess Alexa
Um ah!
Malucia
Anyone else got something to say?
All
You have enough magic.
Malucia
No. I want it all. Who’s gonna be the most magical princess now?
 Princess Alexa
Okay Malucia. You want it all? Take it!

Romy and Nori

Alexa, no!
Malucia
Well, if you insist. I got it all.

Enters crack music:

(shocked)
Malucia
O, oh!

Enters explode music:

Malucia
Aaaaah!

(lights of)

(lights on)

Enters a music:

(“We’ve got magic”)

Nori
Could this be happening?

Feels like I’ve got my wings

This is the sweetest thing

Look I’m flying

This is a dream come true

Now everything’s okay

Romy
My tail is back again

Hello my long lost friend

 Look at sparkling

Just like diamonds

Now I’m myself again

Can’t wait to make some waves

Romy
Chorus:

Cause I’ve got magic

Mgic, Magic

Nori
I’ve got magic

Magic, Magic

Oh
Princess Alexa
And I can do anything

Suddenly I can be

Everything that I dream

I can be
Princess Alexa, Romy and Nori
Chorus:

Cause I’ve got magic

Magic, Magic

I’ve got magic

Magic, Magic

Magic, Magic

We’ve got magic!

 Nori
Don’t forget us.
Princess Alexa
Never. I’m guessing you don’t miss your legs.
Romy
Not one bit. Heh! Come back and visit us.
Princess Alexa
I will.
Brookhurst
Princess Alexa!

Princess Alexa!

Princess Alexa!
Princess Alexa
Over here Brookhurst.
Brookhurst
Ah, there you are, You’re Highness. Your mother thought perhaps you were still in
your room, reading.

-What a lovely dress.

Princess Alexa
Thank You!
Brookhurst

I thought I’d better alert you. The young equestrians have gathered on the north lawn.
You may want to take another path back to the palace?
Princess Alexa
No, Brookhurst I’d like to see them and speak to them.
Brookhurst
You do?
Princess Alexa
I want to try.
 Brookhurst
Are you feeling well? Fever perhaps?
Princess Alexa
I’m fine Brookhurst.
Brookhurst
Well, this way Your Highness.

Princess Alexa

Hi, Thanks for inviting me today. I’m going to speak to my parents about letting your
club use the royal stables to give riding lessons to all the children of our kingdom.

(clapping hands)
Brookhurst
He is Prince Kieran.
Princess Alexa
It’s very nice to meet you. So what do you like to do in Hilgovia?

Enters a music:

(ball music)
Prince Kieran
Can I have this dance? Princess Alexa.
Princess Alexa
Oh! Sure.
Princess Alexa
If it’s okay, there’s actually another dance I’d like to do. Come on Girls.

Enters a music:

(“What’s gonna happen”)

(reprise)

All I wanna really do

Is be right here
 And be just who I am

Yeah, I’m finally stepping

Up to center stage

To lend a helping hand

Every princess

Needs a story

This one will be mine

Cause I’m in the perfect place

And now’s the perfect time

Chorus:

What’s gonna happen

I can’t wait to see

What’s gonna happen

It’s all up to me

I’m gonna turn the page

Prepare to be amazed

Now that I’ve got it made

Woah oh

It’s nothing I’d expect

What’s gonna happen next?

Oh, yeah!

It’s nothing I’d expect

What’s gonna happen next?

THE END
