Remember that just because you read a certain character’s monologue doesn’t
mean we won’t consider you for other characters’ roles.
LAMP VENDOR:
Salaam and good evening to you, worthy friend! Welcome to Agrabah, city of mystery –
Land of Enchantment! An oasis of rest and wonder for those in search of
something…MAGICAL. Yes, my friends, welcome to Agrabah, land of eternal bliss, magical
mysteries… (suddenly turns into a salesman) and home of the hottest half-price bargains this
side of the River Nile!
JASMINE:
But Daddy, what if I don’t want to get married? What if I just want to race camels, or go
sand-surfing on the dunes of the desert? I’d rather gargle with live grasshoppers than marry
that wicked old snake, Jafar! I hate this stupid old palace!
ALADDIN:
Wait a minute, you mean…I’m your master? I get a wise? Now I know I’m dreaming! So
wait… you can make me anything? Wow! Genie, for my first wish, I wish you to get me out of
this cave. And for my second wish, I wish you to make me a prince, so I can woo the
princess!
GENIE:
Thank you, thank you very much! Boy it’s good to be back. Let me tell you, seven-hundred
years inside a lamp can give you such a crick in the neck!
(to Aladdin, pointing a microphone in his face.) Hi, here on business? Having a good time?
Where you from? WAITER, another bowl of hummus for table number two, compliments of
Mr. Lucky!!
So, what’s your name? No wait, don’t tell me. Let me guess. Sinbad? Hercules? Bruce?
Come on, kid, work with me here! People are watching!
Gee, you’re a lot smaller than my last master. Or maybe it’s me… Tell me the truth: do these
earrings make me look fat?
JAFAR:
I must have the throne by any means. And there is one sure fire way to get it! The lamp!
Once I have it, the world will be mine!
(sees Aladdin)
The lamp! Hand it to me, boy! (reaches to get the lamp from Aladdin)
I’ll help you meet your doom, street rat! (Trying to pull the lamp from Aladdin) JUST – GIVE –
ME – THAT – LAMP! (fighting with Aladdin…he lets go and loses it) NO!!! I HAD THE LAMP IN MY
HANDS! CURSE YOU BOOOOOOOY!!!!
SULTAN:
But Jasmine, why were you out in the marketplace when you know the ancient law forbids
it? THE ANCIENT LAW! The ancient law is – the ancient law is the ancient law--, it – is…
(stuttering) How could you?! Jasmine, the ancient law demands you marry one of royal birth
by tomorrow night! Choose wisely, for your husband shall be the future sultan of Agrabah!
