    Interpretive Reading Assignment

    In my opinion, the most important thing in the play is how we can portray more than one
    character who is different and has their own characteristics so that the audience does not
    get confused during the presentation.

    Hansel and Gretel

    Scene 1 (at home)


    Narrator: Hansel and Gretel lived near a dark forest with their
    father
    and their stepmother.

    Father: Good morning, children. Did you sleep well?

    Hansel: Yes, I slept very well.

    Gretel: Me too, Father.

    Father: Excellent. What are you going to do today?

    Hansel: We are going to get some sticks in the woods.

    Father: But, you do that everyday!

    Gretel: We know! But stepmother told us she needed firewood

    everyday to keep our cottage warm.


    Well, be careful. You may get lost if you go too deeply
    Father:
    into
    the woods.

    Hansel: Don’t worry, Father

    Scene 2 (in the forest)

    Narrator: One day, they got lost deep among the trees.

    Gretel: Hansel, where are we? It’s getting late.


    Hansel: I don’t know, Gretel.

    Gretel: I’m very hungry.

    Hansel: Me too.
    Gretel: Father will come and find us.
    Narrator: Then, Hansel and Gretel saw a pretty cottage.

    Hansel: Let’s go and ask for some food.

    Gretel: That is a great idea, Hansel.


    As Hansel and Gretel got closer to the house,
    Narrator:
    they
    realized it was a special house.

    Hansel: Look! It’s made of sweets.

    Gretel: ...and gingerbread!

    Hansel: Let’s try some.

    Gretel: It’s delicious!


    Hansel and Gretel nibbled away like hungry
    Narrator:
    mice.
    Suddenly an old woman opened the door.

    Witch: You are eating my house. Are you hungry?


    Hansel and Gretel: (jumping in shock and dropping their food) We’re so sorry.

    Hansel: We didn’t mean to eat your house...

    Gretel: ...but we were so hungry.

    Witch: (smiling sweetly) Come inside, dear children.

    Narrator: Hansel and Gretel stepped inside the house. Then the old woman locked the door.

    Witch: How dare you eat my cottage! Now, I will eat you, boy! And you, lazy girl, can get
    to work!

    Hansel and Gretel: (scared and starting to cry) No, we didn’t mean to.We’re sorry.

    Narrator: She was a wicked witch!


    Scene 3 (at the witch’s cottage)

    Narrator: The witch locked Hansel in a chicken cage.

    Witch: You are too skinny to eat now, but I will fatten you up. Little girl, get me some
    gingerbread.

    Gretel: No, I won’t.

    Witch: Then, I could eat you first!

    Hansel: Please Gretel, do as she says.

    Narrator: Each day, the witch fed Hansel lots of sweets and gingerbread. And each day, she
    felt Hansel’s finger to see if he was fat enough to eat, but he knew she couldn’t see well.
    Witch: Show me your finger, boy!

    Hansel: (holding out a chicken bone) Here it is.

    Witch: (grumbling) Still too thin!

    Narrator: Soon the witch grew tired of waiting.

    Witch: I can’t wait any longer! I shall eat you tomorrow!

    Hansel: Oh no!

    Gretel: (crying) Oh dear!


    Little girl, go and cut the wood to make the oven nice and
    Witch:
    hot.
    Narrator: Hansel began to worry and Gretel couldn’t stop crying

    Scene 4 (at the witch’s cottage)

    Narrator: The next morning, the witch decided to eat both children.

    Witch: (craftily) Gretel, climb into the oven to see if it’s hot enough.

    Gretel: I don’t know how. Show me.

    Witch: Stupid girl! Like this!

    Narrator: Suddenly, Gretel had a great idea. As the witch bentright over, clever Gretel
    pushed her inside the oven and slammed the door.
    Witch: (screaming) It’s too hot! Let me out, little girl. LET ME OUT!!

    Gretel: (opening the chicken cage) Come out, Hansel.

    Hansel: Where is the wicked witch?

    Gretel: I pushed her into the oven and locked the door.

    Hansel: You are so clever and brave!


    They took the witch’s stolen treasure. Then, Hansel and Gretel found their
    Narrator: way
    out of the dark forest, and soon found their way home again.

    Hansel and Gretel: (shouting with joy and running towards the house) Father!Father! We are
    home.
    Father: Hansel! Gretel! Where have you been? I have been so worried.

    Hansel: We got lost in the woods and the wicked witch tried to eat us.
    Oh my! I am sorry I let you go into the forest. I missed you very much.
    Father: Your
    stepmother has gone. She can never hurt you again.

    Narrator: Hansel, Gretel, and their father lived happily ever after.
