The Play Part 2(Transcript)

55 minutes after the intermission break, Jenny and Kandace went back on stage while everyone else is in their positions.

Jenny: Hello guys, how are you after your intermission break?

Kandace: Are you feeling good? Well we're back and we can continue this play after what we left off. Let's continue shall we?

The play started again. Moses touches Tzipporah, then kissing her.

Raphael: I love you.

Moses gets up, then walking away, then opening a curtain, looking at the sky by the sheep, then inhaling, then walking by the sheep, then petting the sheep, then the sheep runs away, then sighing, then walking up.

Raphael: It's too early for this.

He walks inside a cave by God, then looking at it, then getting down by God, then touching the fire, holding a stick, then the head touches a fire.

Yuto: Moses. Moses. Moses. Moses.

Raphael: Here I am.

Yuto: Take the sandals from your feet, for the place on which you stand is holy ground.

The rocks roll away.

Raphael: Who are you?

Yuto: I am that I am.

Raphael: I don't understand.

Yuto: I am the God of your ancestors, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

Moses drops the staff.

Emily: You were born of my mother, Yocheved. You are our brother.

Raphael: What do you want from me?

Yuto: I have seen the oppression of my people in Egypt, and have heard their cry.

Raphael: Stop it! Leave that man alone!

Yuto: So I have come down to deliver them out of slavery, and bring them to a good land, a land flowing with milk and honey. And so, unto Pharaoh, I shall send you.

Raphael: Me? Wh-who am I to lead these people? They'll never believe me. They won't even listen.

Yuto: I shall teach you what to say.

Raphael: Let my people go!

Moses: But I was their enemy. I was the prince of Egypt, the son of a man who slaughtered their children. You've... You've chosen the wrong messenger. H-how can I even speak to these people?

God: Who made man's mouth? Who made the deaf, the mute, the seeing or the blind? Did not I? Now go!

[he pants]

Gods: Oh, Moses, I shall be with you when you go to the king of Egypt. But Pharaoh will not listen. So I will stretch out my hand, and smite Egypt with all my wonders. Take the staff in your hand, Moses. With it, you shall do my wonders. I shall be with you, Moses. Moses. Moses.

[he looks at a stick, then grabbing a stick, then standing up, by looking at the leaves falling down, then the sheep runs, then looking at a village, then running by Tzipporah, then dancing with Tzipproah with scenes with no dialogue, then hugging, then showing a feet, then grabbing a stick, then walking around, then back to dialogue]

Tzipporah: But, Moses, you are just one man.

Moses: Tzipporah, please. [sighing] Look at your family.

[they all chatter]

Moses: They are free. They have a future. They have hopes and dreams, and the promise of a life with dignity. That is what I want for my people. And that is why I must do the task that God has given me.

[the people walk with the sheep, then they hug]

Tzipporah: I'm coming with you.

[they all wave with the camel walking by Moses and Tzipporah, by desert, buildings, then the men push, with the camel walking with Moses and Tzipporah, then laying on the ground, then grabbing the boy, then the men walk away, the guards walk inside, by the men, then they all lay down, then Rameses puts his hand up]

Moses: Rameses.

Rameses: Moses? Is it really?

[they both nod, then Rameses walks down the stairs by Moses and Tzipporah]

Rameses: [hugs Moses] Moses!

Moses: Rameses!

Rameses: Where have you been? I took you for dead.

[they both laugh]

Rameses: Look at you!

Moses: Pharaoh.

Rameses: Well, look at you. What on earth are you dressed as?

Moses: Oh, Rameses, it's so good to see you.

Hotep: Excuse me, Your Majesty. We are compelled to remind you this man committed a serious crime against the gods.

Huy: We are loathe to bring it up, mind you.

Hotep: The law clearly states the punishment for such a crime...

Huy: Death!

Hotep: We hesitate to say it.

Rameses: Be still. Pharaoh speaks. I am the Morning and the Evening Star.

Moses: Rameses.

Rameses: It shall be as I say. I pardon forever all crimes of which he stands accused, and will have it known that he is our brother Moses, the prince of Egypt.

Moses: Rameses, in my heart, you are my brother, but things cannot be as they were.

Rameses: I see no reason why not.

Moses: You know I am a Hebrew, and the God od the Hebrews came to me.

Rameses: What?

Moses: He commands that you let his people go.

[the crowd murmur]

Rameses: Commands?

Moses: [raises his stick] Behold, the power of God. [puts his stick down, then transforming into a snake]

Rameses: Well, uh, impressive. Hmm. Very well, Moses. I'll play along. [chuckling] Hotep. Huy. Give this snake charmer our answer.

[they chuckle, then they dance by closing the windows, shining at the mirror, by putting hands up and down]
