NARRATOR 2: The Wicked Queen kept many secrets from the King, including the existence of a magic mirror, that could only tell the truth.

NARRATOR 1: Every day, she admired her beauty in the mirror and asked the same question.

WICKED QUEEN: Mirror mirror, on the wall... (Looks around dungeon in confusion.) Where's the mirror? Smuggle!

(Enter SMUGGLE, with pond weed on head; pops head around curtain on left.)

SMUGGLE: You shrieked, Your Majesticness?

WICKED QUEEN: Get the mirror.

SMUGGLE: What? I haven't even finished in the pond yet. Do this; do that...

(Exit SMUGGLE; re-enter with MAGIC MIRROR.)

WICKED QUEEN: Finally, Mirror, I have a question for you...

ALL CAST: Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who is the fairest of them all?

MAGIC MIRROR: Rival beauty is there none - you are still the fairest one.

(Wicked Queen pirouettes and strikes a pose, mimicked by Smuggle.)

MAGIC MIRROR: Oh, sorry. That was yesterday's answer. (Clears throat.) You are lovely as he sun, but Snow White is the lovelier one.

WICKED QUEEN: No, no, no, NO! (Jumps angrily on spot.)

MAGIC MIRROR: Is something the matter?
