X Musical pause; the scene “Tom Sawyer”.

“Tom doesn’t want to go to school”

Tom and Sid are in their beds. It is morning and time to get up. Tom doesn’t want to go to school. He wants to be ill. Then he could stay at home.

Tom (sitting) I don’t want to go to school. What can I do to stay at home? Oh! My tooth is loose. That’s wonderful1…No, it won’t do. Aunt Polly will put it out. Oh, what a wonderful idea came to me! (He lies back and begins to cry. But Sid is sleeping. Tom cries louder.) Sid! Sid!

Sid (opens his eyes). What has happened Tom?

(Tom does not answer, he continues to cry.

Sid looks at Tom.)

Sid: Tom1 say, Tom! Tom! What has happened to you?

(He gets up and comes to Tom. Tom continues crying.)

Tom: Oh, Sid. I am dying. I am not angry with you.

Sid: Oh, Tom. You are not dying. Don’t!

Tom: I am not angry with Aunt Polly. Tell her so. And, Sid, give my cat with one eye to the new girl at school and tell her…

(Sid takes his clothes and runs out of the room.)

Sid (shouting) Oh, Aunt Polly, come! Tom is dying.

Aunt : Dying, Oh my God. What has happened to him?

Sid: yes, come quickly!

Aunt: Don’t say so! (She runs in and comes quickly up to Tom) you, Tom! Tom, what has happened to you, my boy?

Tom: Oh, Auntie, look at my right hand! It is red and hot.

Aunt: (sees that his hand is not red) Oh, Tom, stop that nonsense and get up!

Tom: but, auntie, it is so hot, that I have forgotten about my tooth.

Aunt: your tooth? And what has happened to your tooth?

Tom: it’s loose.

Aunt: open your mouth. Well, you are right. Your tooth is loose. Sid, bring me some thread.

Tom: Oh, please, dear Auntie, don’t pull it out. It’s all right now.

(Sid brings the thread.)

Tom: Oh. Oh! (he covers his mouth with his hands.) Oh, my tooth was all right. But I didn’t want to go to school.

Aunt: Oh, Tom. So all this is because you don’t want to go to school. You want to go fishing. Tom, Tom, I love you so dearly, and you… now get up quickly and get ready to go to school!

 

Part II

Story-teller: Tom Sawyer was not the model boy of the village. He did not obey his aunt. He was fond of fighting and running away from school. One day he was late for school as usual.

Teacher: Thomas Sawyer!

Tom: sir.

T.: come up here. Now, sir, why are you late again as usually?

Tom: I stopped to talk with Huckleberry Finn!

T.: you-you did what?

Tom: stopped to talk with Huckleberry Finn.

Teacher: Thomas Sawyer, this is the most surprising excuse I have ever listened to. The usual punishment for coming late isn’t enough. Take off your jacket. (Tom takes off his jacket, goes up to the teacher, whose arm goes up and down until it is tired!) Now, sir, go and sit with girls. Let this be a lesson to you not to be late for school.

(Tom sits near Becky. He begins to look at her, but she turns away from him. When she turns again she sees an apple in front of her. She pushes it away. Tom puts it back.)

Tom: please, take it-I have got more (then he begins to draw).

Becky: let me see it. It’s nice. Now make a man. It’s a beautiful man. Now draw me coming along. It’s even so nice. I wish I could draw.

Tom: it’s easy I‘ll teach you.

Becky: Oh, will you? When?

Tom: at noon. Do you go home to dinner?

Becky: I’ll stay if you will.

Tom: good, what is your name?

Becky: Becky Thatcher. What’s yours? Oh, I know. It’s Thomas Sawyer.

Tom: that’s the name they punish me by. I am Tom, when I am good. You will call me Tom, will you?

Becky: Yes. (Tom writes something on the paper) Let me see it.

Tom: Oh, it isn’t anything.

Becky: yes, it is.

Tom: no, it isn’t, you don’t want to see it.

Becky: yes, I do, indeed I do. Please let me.

Tom: you’ll tell.

Becky: no, I won’t.

Tom: you won’t tell anybody at all. Ever, as long, as you live?

Becky: No, I won’t ever tell anybody. Now let me. (Tom, shows her a paper with the words “I love you”)

Becky: Oh, you bad thing!
