SCENE 1:VIVIENNE’S HOUSE

Vivienne: Mom, Zoe said she’ll be here soon.

Carly: Okay, Viv. Have you been working at the

laundromat lately?

Vivienne: I have been trying. Not making much

money though. And besides, it’s too boring. I'd
rather do things I LIKE to do.

Carly: Oh Vivienne! That’s not good! You can’t just

do things you like. You need to work more. We
don’t have much.

Vivienne: Sorry, mom.

Carly: Alright. Well, I’m going to work now. Zoe

will probably be here soon.

Vivienne: Bye.

Zoe: Hey! Vivienne, how’s it going?

3
Vivienne: Pretty good. Mom’s making me work
morning to night at the laundromat. She never lets
me sing and do things I like.

Zoe: Oh well I’m sorry to hear that.

Vivienne: It’s okay. It’s not like I even would be

able to do that singing studio you do. We can’t
afford it.

Zoe: No, you will be able to do it. Actually, I think I

could loan you money to join.

Vivienne: Oh Zoe, you shouldn’t.

Zoe: No. I could. Here, take this. You will get to

meet everyone–oh, I actually never introduced
you to Cameryn.

Vivienne: Thank you so much! You are such a good

friend. I really can’t wait to meet them all.

Zoe: Okay then, I guess I’ll see you tomorrow at

the first class.

Vivienne: Looking forward to it! Thanks again.

4
Zoe: No problem. Anything you need.

Vivienne: Bye!

Zoe: Bye, bye!

TRY SOMETHING NEW:

Vivienne: I guess I shouldn’t just doubt

Because I feel that my luck had changed
Oh, I let my hopes down forever
Finally, learned the way it was
I tell myself, "This time it's different"
No more doubts 'cause I can't bear to think them
I'd never survive the one that's coming
If I stay, oh no
Try something new, oh, and don't look back
'Cause if it goes well, it's gonna feel so good
You know I'm poor, but I can dream
Before it's too late
Oh, try something new
Oh, try something new

SCENE 4: WELCOME TO MS. LEAH’S SOPRANO

CLASS!

Vivienne: Whoa! This place is so cool!

Zoe: Yeah, you’re really going to like it.

Ms. Leah: Okay class, please find your seats. Wait,

it looks like we have a new classmate. What’s your
name?

Vivienne: Viv. Oh, Zoe referred me here.

Ms. Leah: Well, hello Viv. Thanks Zoe. So, let’s start
off with a siren. “We-e-e”

15
Students: “We-e-e”

Ms. Leah: Nice job! So, let’s hear your voices to

find the range you will be in! Oh wait! Lilianna,
girls–find your seats.

Lilianna: Hey! That’s my seat, you idiot!

Betty: Sorry, Lilz.

Lilianna: Ugh, gather your music and get out!

Betty: Don’t you dare try and talk to me like that!

Lilianna: Ha! Looks like you’ve changed a lot. You

used to be so quiet and kind. Now, you are so
“wise” and rude!

Betty: I was “kind” enough for you when I helped

you get into sopranos.

Lilianna: I don’t need your help! In fact, you might

need my help.

Betty: Oh yeah? I’ll show you I need your help!

16
BE LIKE WE WERE:

Lilianna: Look at me now

I am so neat
Wouldn't you think that my songs are complete?
I really just think I'm the girl
The girl who has everything?

Lilianna: And you’re jealous!

Look at this place

Treasures untold
How many wonders can one studio hold?
Looking around here you'd think
Sure, I’ve got everything
I've got microphones, stands, and a-plenty
You’ve got music and piano scores
You want microphones?
I've got twenty!
But who cares?

17
No big deal
I want more
Betty: I wanna be where we used to be
I wanna sing, wanna sing with you
We are not like we used to, what’d you call us?
Oh, friends
Lilianna: Singing with you, I won’t get too far
Songs are required for singing, dancing
Strolling along down a, what's that word again?
Street
These are my friends, Molly, Polly,
And Dolly
Betty: Wanderin' free, I am just me
Let’s be like we were
What would I give if I could live out of this studio?
What would you pay to spend a day just with me
Bet'cha you don’t just understand
Bet they don't reprimand their friends
Bright young women, sick of singing

18
All: Ready to be
And ready to know what the others know
Ask 'em my questions and get some answers
What's a mike and why does it
Project?
Betty: When's it my turn?
Wouldn't I love, love to explore what’s more with
you of
Why aren’t we
Wish we could be
Lilianna and Betty: Be like we were

Ms. Leah: Okay, I will now read your groups.

Sopranos- Lilianna, Molly, Dolly, Emma, and
Vivienne.

Polly: Ugh! Ms. Leah! Switch me to the sopranos!

Lilz, Molly and Dolly are there!

Ms. Leah: But you’re going to strain your vocal

chords!!!

Polly: Alright!

19
Ms. Leah: Where was I? Oh, alto, tenor, and
baritone groups will be given in Ms. Ollie’s class.
Brandon, can you go tell your mom these students
are ready for her?

Brandon: Sure.

Ms. Leah: Thanks Brandon. Class, pack up and get

ready for Ms. Ollie’s alto class!

Zoe: Ms. Leah?

Ms Leah: Yes, Zoe?

Zoe: Oh, I’m in the alto group now right?

Ms. Leah: Most probably. If not, I’ll make some

changes.

Zoe: Oh ok.

Vivienne: So, I really liked this class!

Cameron: Just wait for Ms. Ollie’s class where we’ll

start singing! You’ll have a blast!

20
Zoe: Yeah!

Vivienne: Can’t wait!

Brandon: Okay guys, come down to my mom’s alto

class

Vivienne: Okay!

Zoe: Will do.

Hailey: Brandon, What are we singing?

Brandon: Well, I don’t know yet. It must be a

surprise!

Vivienne: Oh, I’m not so good at singing low.

Hailey: Ms. Ollie will help you!

Brandon: Actually, I can help you if you’d like.

Vivienne: You can? That would be amazing! Thank

you so much Brandon!

Brandon: Of course.

21
 HOME:

Vivienne: Yes I made the choice, I’m glad I did

because
I have made some good friends along the way,
Thanks Zoe
If you think what you have done is right well then
you're so wise, thanks again
this is home
this where I should learn to be happy
Always dreamed that a home could be warm and
fun
I was told, every day in my childhood, even when
we grow old...
Home will be where the heart is. Never were words
so true.
My hearts here, always here, Home is too.
Why’d I not ever think of this before I came here?
And to think I could not ever sing again
This is home
I would hope to be here for forever
Instead of there at that silly laundromat

22
Oh now then, that my life has been altered, but it
wouldn’t change again
Sing louder songs around me
Change nothing evermore
Everything lasts, everything holds all of me
My hearts here, always here,
Home and free

SCENE 5: THE SOCCER COURT

Emma: Hey boys! Are you coming to rehearsal with

Ms. Ollie in a little?

Alex: What? Are you crazy?!?

Eric: We don’t sing!

Alan: Yeah, we are sporty.

Emma: Okay, excuse me for asking!

Alex: Can you leave?

Eric: Yeah, you literally interrupted us!

Alan: Yeah! Go and stay at your singing studio!

23
Emma: Okay, I’m sorry! Just wanted to help you
guys get your heads in the game!

GETCHA HEAD IN THE GAME:

Eric: Coach said to kick right

And kick left
Watch out for the pick
And keep an eye on the ball
Gotta run the give and go
And take the ball to the net
But don't be afraid
To score it right
Emma: Just keep ya head in the game
Just keep ya head in the game
And don't be afraid
To sing a little
Just keep ya head in the game
Alex: U gotta
Get'cha get'cha head in the game
All: We gotta

24
Get our, get our, get our, get our head in the game
Alex: U gotta
Get'cha get'cha head in the game
All: We gotta
Get our, get our, get our, get our head in the game
Alex: Come on
Get'cha get'cha head in the game
All: We gotta

A second chance
Gotta grab it and go

25
Emma: Maybe this time
We'll hit the right notes

Emma: Guys, it's okay if you want to stop. Come to

rehearsal.

Eric: Are you kidding?

Alex: Em, we don’t do what you do.

Alan: Yeah Emma. Let us do our thing. You go sing,

and we can play soccer. Alright?

Emma: Alright. But I’m 99% sure that you guys are
going to decide to come. Maybe at least one of you.

Alan, Eric, Alan: HECK NOOOO!!

SCENE 6: MS. OLLIE’S CLASS

Ms. Ollie: Hello class!

26
Brandon: Hey mom. These are your students today.
Emma will be here soon.

Lilianna: Hi! Oh, did you ask if I’d sing solo in the
song? The answer is yes!

Brandon: Lilz, chill out.

Lilianna: Don’t you dare tell me what to do,

Brandon! Just because your mommy is the teacher
doesn’t mean you have the full authority!

Brandon: And just because you’re the caddy and

sassy one doesn’t mean you are privileged to get a
solo!

Lilianna: Ha! You think you can talk to ME like

that?!? You’re just jealous that I am the STAR!

Brandon: Oh yeah? Well, if there’s anyone who is

jealous here it would definitely be you!

27
Vivienne: Guys! Stop arguing! Let’s get to work.

Ms. Ollie: Thank you. Oh, are you new here?

Brandon: Mom, meet Viv.

Ms. Ollie: Well, nice to meet you, Viv.

Vivienne: Yes, likewise. It’s a pleasure to meet you

as well. I was put in the sopranos group. You were
told to give out altos, baritones, and tenors.

Ms. Ollie: Yes, yes. Therefore, here are our groups.

Altos- Hailey, Zoe, and Polly. Tenors- Brandon,
Alex, and Eric. Baritones- Alan and Cameron.

Zoe: Okay. Sounds great!

Hailey: So, sounds like fun.

28
Emma: Oh, sorry I’m late! I was trying to get these
soccer guys to come.

Alan: Yeah! You forced us!

Eric: What group am I in?

Ms. Ollie: Eric, Alex, you are with the tenors.

Therefore, Alan is with the baritones.

Alex: Great! Thanks, Ms. Ollie!

Ms. Ollie: Okay, class. The bus has arrived! Buckle

your seat belts because we are going to New York!

Vivienne: New York?!? That sounds awesome!

Zoe: I know! Let’s go!

29
N.Y.C.
Ms. Ollie: N.Y.C.-

The shimmer of Times Square,

The pulse,

The beat,

The drive!

Hailey: N.Y.C.-

You might say that I'm square,

But wow-!

I come

Alive.

All: The city's bright

As a penny arcade.

It blinks, it tilts, it rings.

30
Vivienne: To think that

I've live here all of my life

And never seen these things!

All: N.Y.C.-

The whole world keeps coming,

By bus,

By train;

You can't

Explain

Their yen

For…

Zoe: N.Y.C.-

Just got here this morning;

31
Three bucks,

Two bags,

One me!

Lilianna: N.Y.C.-

I give you fair warning:

Up there,

In lights

I'll be!

All: Go ask the Gershwins

Or Kaufman and Hart

The place they love the best.

Though California

Pays big for their art,

32
Their fan mail comes addressed

To N.Y.C.

Tomorrow, a penthouse

That's way

Up high

Vivienne: Tonight?

The "Y."

Why not?

It's N.Y.C.

Betty: N.Y.C.,

You're standing room only.

You crowd,

You cramp.

33
You're still

The champ!

All: Amen

For N.Y.-

-C

Brandon: Give in.

Don't fight.

Good girl.

Hold tight

You’re right

In

N.Y.C.

34
SCENE 7: THE TRIPLETS’ HOUSE

Lilianna: I can’t believe that Brandon kid just

snapped at me like that!

Molly: How rude!

Polly: How crazy!!

Dolly: How sad!!!

Lilianna: But he’ll realize who he is talking to

sooner or later! Hahaha! And he’s helping that new
girl get a solo part or something! I need to get
revenge on her! Where did she even come from?

Molly: She says she’s poor.

Lilianna: POOR?!? Ha! How did she even join then?

Dolly: She doesn’t even deserve to be here! She’s

poor! She probably made it up so someone can pay
for her!

Lilianna: Who knows?

35
Molly: Who cares?

Dolly: Zoe loaned money to her so she can join! I

find that silly!

Lilianna: Zoe? The RICH girl?!? Oh my god! If I

were Zoe, I would keep that money and go to
Starbucks! Oh girls, I could totally use a latte after
all this!

Polly: Umm, actually, is it just me or do you guys

kind of feel bad? I mean, Zoe was very kind to give
her a ton of money so she could follow her dreams.
I find that…WONDERFUL.

Lilianna, Molly, Dolly: WHAT?!?

Lilianna: Are you crazy?!? Taking the enemy’s

side?!?

Polly: The enemy? When did Vivienne ever

become YOUR enemy? She didn’t even do
anything to you!

Lilianna: Well, if you don’t agree with us, maybe

you should leave.

36
Molly, Dolly: Yeah!

Polly: How dare you girls! How dare you! Going

against your triplet like that?!? Lilianna is a trash
friend! I always knew that. I just didn’t want to
believe it. And I hope that one day you guys will
realize that too.

Molly: Polly, you can’t just leave?

Dolly: What about us?

Polly: You guys chose Lilianna. I chose myself. And

I am proud of it. You guys are followers. And I
don’t want any part of it.

Lilianna: Fine! Girls, let's go to Starbucks!

Molly: Yes!

Dolly: Let’s go girls!

WHEN THERE WAS ME AND YOU:

Polly: It's funny when you find yourself

Looking from the outside

37
I'm standing here but all I want

Is to be over there

Why did I let myself believe

Miracles could happen?

'Cause now I have to pretend

That I don't really care

I thought you were my fairy tale

A dream when I'm not sleeping

A wish upon a star

That's coming true

But everybody else could tell

That I confused my feelings with the truth

When there was me and you

Lilianna: I swore I knew the melody

That I heard you singing

38
And when you followed you made me feel

Like I could lead the group

But then you went and changed the words

Now my trio’s two

I'm only left with used-to-be's

And once upon a song

Molly: Now I know you're not a fairy tale

And dreams were meant for sleeping

And wishes on a star

Just don't come true

Dolly: 'Cause now even I can tell

That I confused my feelings with the truth

Because I liked the view

When there was me and you

Polly: I can't believe that I could be so blind

39
It's like you were leading while I was following

And I didn't mind

All: 'Cause I liked the view

I thought you felt it too

When there was me and you

SCENE 8: VIV’S HOUSE

Vivienne: Thanks for helping me with those low

notes.

Brandon: Anytime!

Vivienne: I would’ve never been able to hit them

without you!

Brandon: It’s my pleasure! Also, Hailey is always

here to help you with low notes. She’s really good.

Vivienne: Yeah, Hailey is awesome!

Brandon: So…how did you end up coming here?

40
Vivienne: Well…long story short. I always loved to
sing with Zoe and she said, “Hey, why don’t you
join my singing studio?” and I was like, “yeah, I
would love to but I can’t afford it.” So then one day
she came over my house and asked if I can do it if
she would loan me some money. And she paid for
it and now I’m here. So, long story short–thanks to
Zoe!

Brandon: Wow. I didn’t know that you can’t afford

much. If I would’ve known that sooner, I could’ve
given you some money too. But anyways…here,
take this.

Vivienne: Really? Thanks, Brandon!

Brandon: Always. Well, I’d better get going now.

See you tomorrow?

Vivienne: Yes, see you tomorrow.

Zoe: Hey Viv! Surprise!

Vivienne: Oh thank you!

41
Zoe: You’re very welcome! So, how did you like
your first day at the studio?

Vivienne: It was the best experience in my life!

Thank you so much!

Zoe: I will always be happy to help!

THANK YOU FOR THE MUSIC:

Vivienne: I'm nothing special, in fact I'm a bit of a

bore

If I tell a joke, you've probably heard it before

But I have a talent, a wonderful thing

'Cause everyone listens when I start to sing

I'm so grateful and proud

All I want is to sing it out loud

So I say

Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing

Thanks for all the joy they're bringing

42
Who can live without it? I ask in all honesty

What would life be?

All: Without a song or a dance, what are we?

So I say thank you for the music

For giving it to me

Vivienne: Mother says I was a dancer before I

could walk

She says I began to sing long before I could talk

And I've often wondered, how did it all start?

Who found out that nothing can capture a heart

Like a melody can?

Well, whoever it was, I'm a fan

All: So I say

Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing

Thanks for all the joy they're bringing

Who can live without it? I ask in all honesty

43
What would life be?

Without a song or a dance what are we?

So I say thank you for the music

For giving it to me

Zoe: I've been so lucky, I am the girl with golden

hair

I wanna sing it out to everybody

What a joy, what a life, what a chance

All: Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing

Thanks for all the joy they're bringing

Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty

What would life be?

Without a song or a dance what are we?

So I say thank you for the music

For giving it to me

So I say

44
Thank you for the music,

Vivienne: for giving it to me

When you dream there's a chance you'll find
A little laughter or happy ever after

It's echoing inside my head
A single voice (single voice)
Above the noise
And like a common thread
Mmm, you're pulling me
Cameron: When I hear my favorite song
I know that we belong
Oh, you are the music in me

we met)
Can't explain (oh)
There's no name for it (no name for it)

Brandon: I'm saying words that I never said
And it was easy (so easy)
Because you see the real me (I see you)
Hailey: As I am
You understand
And that's more than I ever known
To hear your voice (hear your voice)
Above the noise (oh oh)
I know, I'm not alone
Oh, you're singing to me (ooh yeah)
All: When I hear my favorite song
I know that we belong (yeah oh)

that alto part, girls.

Hailey: Alright. We will do that!

Vivienne: Hailey, Brandon, you guys have been so

good always helping me with low notes. I brought
you guys something.

Brandon: Wow! A microphone!

Hailey: This is so cute! Did you make it?

Vivienne: Yes, I did!

Hailey: That’s awesome!

Vivienne: And guys?

Hailey and Brandon: Yeah?

Vivienne: Oh…yeah. Umm…I just wanted to say,

you guys are going to do so well in the concert!

48
Brandon: Oh thanks Viv. You are too!

Hailey: Thank you! You are totally going to nail

this showcase.

Vivienne: Thank you guys so much!

SCENE 9: THE TRIPLETS’ HOUSE

Dolly: Polly, I can’t believe you turned your back

on us and Lilianna like that!

Molly: Yeah, what’d you do that for? That was

really mean!

Polly: You wanna know what I think? I think you

guys are really mean! You guys have no respect for
yourselves! Going along with Lilz making fun of
some poor girl like that?!? That’s just not right!

49
Molly: Alright Polly! Well then that’s your choice!

Dolly: Yeah, do what you want!

Molly: Oh, Dolly? Lilz said she would meet us at

Dunkin’ today!

NEVER ENOUGH:

Dolly: Oh my God! Why didn’t you say that before?

But anyway, let’s go!

Polly: All the shine of a thousand spotlights

All the stars we steal from the night sky
Will never be enough
Never be enough
Towers of gold are still too little
These hands could hold the world but it'll
Never be enough
Never be enough

SCENE 10: ZOE’S HOUSE

Vivienne: Hey Zoe!

Zoe: Hey! Everyone should be here soon!

Cameron: Hey Zoe! Long time no see!

Zoe: Hahaha! Yeah, right!

Hailey: Hi guys! What’s up? I brought you guys

some cupcakes! I got both vanilla and chocolate.
Wasn’t sure who liked what!

Zoe: Oh thanks Hailey!

Emma: Surprise! I came by with your pals!

Zoe: Oh my! That’s great!

51
Brandon: Hey Viv, hey Zoe, what’s up?

Vivienne: Hi! I’m so happy to see you guys!

Brandon: Oh Hailey? Nice to see you too!

Hailey: Always a pleasure Brandon!

Brandon: Oh Cameron! How's it going?

Cameron: Doing fine. And you?

Brandon: Same here.

Zoe: Okay guys! So, we’ll have some cake, coffee,

and sing some songs.

Emma: That sounds like a plan!

52
Vivienne: Yeah, and Zoe–I just wanted to let you
know…I invited Betty.

Zoe: Oh ok. That’s great!

Vivienne: Yeah, I feel like she’s always so shy and

she’s always standing up for herself with the
whole Lilz thing.

Zoe: Yeah. That’s very nice of you!

Betty: Hi guys!

All: Betty!

Betty: I’m so happy to see you all!

Cameron: Yes! It’s nice to see you again!

Betty: I could play you guys some songs in a little!

53
Zoe: Yes that would be great!

Emma: Would love to hear them!

Hailey: Betty, that song that we sing—you play it

wonderfully!

Betty: Oh thanks.

Zoe: Attention everybody! I would like for you

guys to stop for a moment. My friend has a very
important announcement to make!

Vivienne: Oh it’s nothing. Just, I kind of wanted to

say…I’m so glad that I came to your music studio
and met you all. You all really are a big help. Like I
was telling Brandon the other day—you all
individually showed me things that I didn’t know.
For example, like when Hailey and Brandon helped
me with low notes. And when Emma gets everyone
together to rehearse. You guys are amazing! But of
course, most of all, there is one very special
person that I would love to thank. So, Zoe, thank

54
you so much for always being there for me. You are
the reason why I am succeeding. You’re probably
the reason why we’re all succeeding! If it weren’t
for you, I wouldn’t have been here. I couldn’t
afford it. You helped me. That’s the one thing that
counts—friendship.

I HAVE A DREAM:
All: I have a dream
A song to sing
To help me cope
With anything
If you see the wonder
Of a fairy tale
You can take the future
Even if you fail
I believe in angels
Something good in
Everything I see
I believe in angels
When I know the time

55
Is right for me
I'll cross the stream
I have a dream
I have a dream
A fantasy
To help me through
Reality
And my destination
Makes it worth the while
Pushing through the darkness
Still another mile
I believe in angels
Something good in
Everything I see
I believe in angels
When I know the time
Is right for me
I'll cross the stream
I have a dream

56
I'll cross the stream
Vivienne: I have a dream
