SIDE A – JACK & LILY

Jack switches off the television.

Lily: Nooooooo. Jack, what are we going to do?

Jack: I'm sorry, Lily. There's no way we can post your letter now.

Lily: Maybe if I ran to the North Pole?

Jack: Don't be silly, Lily. The North Pole is hundreds of miles away.

Lily: But we could build our own sleigh and fly to the North Pole. (to audience) Couldn't
we?

Jack: Well, I don't think we could fly...
 Lily But we could still build a sleigh... (to
audience) Couldn't we?

Jack: Well...


Lily: Pleeeeease?


Jack: But...


Lily: (encouraging the audience) Pleeeeeeease?

Jack: Oh, alright then. We'll build a pretend sleigh. But you're going to have to use a
little imagination.

Lily: Fine. I'll use my imagininnynations.

Jack: Imagination.


Lily: That's what I said. (she giggles)

 SIDE B – JACK & LILY

BUILDING THE SLEIGH

Jack: Ta-dah! Look, I found dad's old skis. These will be perfect. Here, you take one
and put it over there. And I'll put this one over here. Careful, they're quite heavy.

Lily: I can manage. I'm a sleigh-building expert. (she giggles)
 They place one ski on
each side of the bed to make the runners.

Jack: Perfect. Now, it's quite high up. You'll need a step.

Lily: You can use this toybox, Jack. But be careful. It's full of magic dust.

Jack: Well, we might need magic dust to help us fly, so this will be perfect.

He places the small toybox in front of the bed to make a step.

Lily: Yippee!
 Jack Now you'll need somewhere to sit... So let's put the chair on top.

Jack: puts the chair on top of the bed. Jack And... (bowing) Your carriage awaits.

Lily: It's not a carriage, Jack, it's a sleigh! Jack Of course, silly me. Up you get.
