(A woman, MRS. BAKER, goes to the river and looks around. There is some, GEORGE, hiding behind a tree DR (down right).  The river is DOWN off the edge of the stage.  Before the start of the play, you can have the audience practice being a river by waving your arms.  If you have a large cast of actors, then you can have them play the river in front of the audience)

(George is behind a tree.  He is in shadow and can hardly be seen)

(George cries loudly)

(Mrs. Baker goes to the local village store with her shopping list.   The store can be as simple as a lemon-aid stand.  People are lined up.  MRS. VENDI is selling stuff)

(He sticks his head in the bag and starts eating happily and leaves.  GAL walks up)

(GAL walks off with her bag shaking and her making animal sounds)

(MRS. BAKER has her turn)

(VENDI looks at BAKER suspiciously as she fills a bag with the ingredients)

(VENDI tosses egg into bag.  BAKER looks annoyed but continues)

(VENDI looks at BAKER critically.  BAKER pauses dramatically and says...)

[People (Farmer, Bo Peep, Mary, etc.) and animals (Cow, Cat, Sheep, etc.) gather]

(They all scream and run around)

(The people and animals watch in horror as VENDI gets out her radiation goggles and gloves and tongs and pulls out magic gumdrops from a special box. Lights flicker.  Ominous music is heard. Everyone runs away in horror.  Vendi puts them in bag and lights go back to normal and music stops)
