Mickey Mouse Hoedown Script

As we are led to our log seats, we see a small dark green curtain in the center of the room, a painting of Mickey's face in the center of it. As the doors to the theater shut, we hear crickets chirping, frogs croaking, and bats screeching through the eerie darkness. An owl hoots as a wolf is heard howling to the full moon which rises above the theater. The curtain thus opens to show Mickey and Goofy dressed in fishing gear as they roast marshmallows over a roaring campfire, their small tent nearby. Goofy looks around frightened as the wolf lets out another howl.

Goofy: Hey Mickey, what was that?

Mickey: That was a wolf Goofy.

Goofy: A WOLF? I wanna go home!

Mickey: Calm down Goofy, why wolves are our friends!

Goofy: They are?

Mickey: Yep! As a matter of fact, all animals are our friends.

Goofy: Well garsh I never knew that!

Mickey: Without our animal friends, there would be no world for us to live in! If there were no flies there would be no frogs, and if there were no frogs, there would be no alligators! See Goofy, we coexist with all creatures, we live in a grand circle of life that is forever changing. As a matter of fact with a little magic I can take you all on a journey through these woods, so you yourselves can witness the circle of life!

Goofy: Sounds great Mickey, let's go!

Mickey: Alrighty then we're off! (Blackout. Mickey thus sings in the tune of "Yankee Doodle" as we prepare for the first number)

Let's head out to the American woods Where the bears and billygoats play. We'll ride there on a riverboat And stay around a day.

Let's sing with a crocodile And maybe even a raccoon. And if we're real lucky We'll howl with a wolf at the moon! (A instrumental of "Yankee Doodle" plays as a spotlight hits a turtle dressed as a fisherman, a bear dressed as a hunter, and a goose dressed as an old farmer)
