The Shoe Fits
LORD PINKLETON
Hear ye!
Hear ye!
The Prince intends to search until
He finds the girl who fits the bill
But not 'the bill', the shoe I mean
A shoe to fit a queen!
WOMAN
(grunts as she tries on the shoe)
LORD PINKLETON
The shoe does not fit
ANOTHER WOMAN
(grunts as she tries on the shoe)
LORD PINKLETON
The shoe does not fit
CHARLOTTE
Here goes nothin’. Me again. Hey
LORD PINKLETON
It does not fit
TOPHER
Is that the last eligible lady in the kingdom?
LORD PINKLETON
She appears to be, yes
TOPHER
Everyone truly has tried on the slipper?
ELLA
I haven’t tried on the slipper
ALL
(Gasp!)
LORD PINKLETON
The shoe fits!
