Pirate Party Script - panto styleSteph and Doug are well known for their 20 - 30 minute panto style shows. These shows can be performed anywhere and are written for one female and one male but can be performed by two females or two males. These shows only use hand props and usually involve getting a child up to help. You now have the opportunity to purchase the Pirate Script. This can be performed by mum and dad at a childs party or by pre school leaders for an end of term treat. Steph and Doug do not stick rigidly to the script as they adapt it to suit the children in the audience. The children usually sit in a circle on the floor in front of Steph and Doug. The pirate script needs a sword and shield for a child to use plus a ships steering wheel (plastic ones are available from party shops), a toy parrot, a map and a pirates chest. All of the scripts involve the children making a noise and these sounds are explained at the beginning of each show. Thereafter the words are underlined when the sound is needed. Children in the South of England love the Pirate story so we hope that children all over the world get as much fun out of it. The pirate show was written by Steph Bates. This script is available for $6 - payment by paypal. You will then get a password which will enable you to open the page. I do suggest that you print out the script as the password will be changed from time to time. Below is a sample from the script:
Captain - Ahoy, me shipmates. Are you all having a nice time? Let me introduce myself. My name is Captain Shivermyfingers - don't laugh, it's not funny. Children laugh Stop laughing. Well, when you hear my name you have to put your hand out and wave your fingers, can you do that? Children do it. Very good. This here is my pirate friend and she's called Pirate Bea. Can you all say 'Hello Pirate Bea'? Children wave and shout.
Bea - Hello everyone. Now before we go any further we need to make sure you can all shout loud enough to help us with our story. Can you all shout loudly? Children shout again.
Captain- That's rubbish! I said 'can you all shout loudly?' Children shout again That's better, now we need to teach you the sound effects for our story.
Bea - The first one. Whenever you hear us say the word 'running', you need to put your hands on your knees and pat them up and down to make a noise. Ready? - 'Running'. Very good.
Captain - I'll do the last one. When I say 'a-hoy' put your fist in the air like this (Puts fist in the air) and shout 'a-hoy' after me.
Bea - Okay, Captain, let's have a practise. We'll start off really slowly and get faster and faster to see if you can keep up. Ready... Captain - Running, Suddenly, A-hoy (practise about 5 times) Bea - Very good, give yourselves a big clap. On with the story. Captain - Let me tell you all about me. I'm Captain Shivermefingers (children wave fingers) and I'm the bravest and most handsome pirate you'll ever meet.
Bea - Oh no you're not (get children to join in). ......to read further click the buy now button below.
