Script
Scene 1: The Nonnberg Abbey
Morning Hymn and Alleluia
- The Holy Communion has already finished. All the nuns walks out from the church, getting through the abbey to their dormitory tower. Three of them are Mother Abbess, Sister Margaretta, Sister Berthe.
Mother Abbess: Relax, my dear. Have you checked outside?
Sister Margaretta: Yes, Mother. I have checked the storehouses, the fountain, and around the postern gate… But she is nowhere to find.
Sister Berthe: She is not in the chapel too, Mother. Neither the refectory and her room. [sighs] Oh. Where is she?
MA: Oh, well. Always the same everytime. [sighs] Maria…
SM-SB: [sighs] Maria…
Maria Enters
M: [grumps] Okay. I know I am late.
MA: And where have you been, my dear?
SM: You missed the Holy Communion. Again.
M: [sighs] I am from… The hill, Mother.
SB: The hill again. What will happen if you get lost?
M: Oh, I will not get lost! I am the friend of the the nature.
MA: [sighs] Maria, my child. There is something I want to tell you, actually, Sisters you may leave now.
SM-SB: Yes, Mother.
SM: [to Maria] You are in trouble, young lady.
SM-SB Leave
M: [deep breath] What is it, Mother? Will I… Get a punishment? I know I have missed the Holy Communion twice already, and I am so undisciplined and all…
MA: Ho. [gentle] No, that is not it, my dear. I see that you still want to be free. Maybe the Abbey is not ready for you yet, Maria.
M: It is not? But… Then… I… But I am in my way to be a nun, Mother!
MA: Yes, yes, I know you are. But, dear, you need time.
M: So… You mean that I have to wait?
MA: Yes. Hmmm. Well, there is actually a captain with seven children who needs a governess.
M: SEVEN CHILDREN?!
MA: That is right. But they told me that three of them have lived with their grandparents in Berlin, so there are just four who stay with their father, here, actually.
M: Four! Oh! What a relief… But where is their mother? Does she live with them too?
MA: Their mother died 5 years ago. That was the reason why the captain quit from the navy.
M: Oh, dear. Poor children…
MA: Yes. They must be very lonely. So, have you guessed your new duty?
M: Oh… Do I have to be their governess?
MA: Yes. You are going to be their governess until you find yourself ready for this abbey.
M: Yes, Mother. I will.
Scene 2: The new governess’ arrival
Door Bell
M: OH!
CG clears his throat and looks at Maria coldly
M: I, I’m very sorry… err, Sir! I thought the bell is broken by some reasons. Uh… I am here to see the… Captain Von Trapp, sir!
CG: I am the captain. And who are you, Frauleine?
M: I am Maria, Sir—I mean, Captain! I am the new governess from the abbey. Err…How do you do, Captain?
Shakes hand with CG, CG ignores it
CG: Follow me.
M: Uh… Yes, Captain!
Maria Follows as they walk through the house, CG blows whistle. Maria jumps, Children form line
CG: Children, this is Frauleine Maria, your new governess. Stand out and say your names in order.
Li: I am the first. I am 16 years old. My name is Liesl.
F: I am the second. I am 14. My name is Friedrich.
Lo: I am the third. I am 13 years old. My name is Louisa.
K: I am the fourth. The only man of the house. I am 11. My name is Kurt.
M: Well, Hello children. You look all well.
Li: I don’t need a governess.
M: Oh, well we can just can be friends I think.
F: I am stubborn, and I am very impossible.
M: Oh! Okay, let’s just make it possible then.
CG: Alright, introduction is over. Children, I have some announcement for you. I have to leave for Vienna tomorrow morning.
Children: Vienna, Really? Seriously, again? You always go, just stay with us.
CG: May I know what is wrong with Vienna?
Li: It is not the place. It is you who cannot accompany us tomorrow. Do you remember of our weekend-plan to watch the orchestra together, father?
CG: I do, honey! This is sudden, I’ll make a deal with you, and we’ll go after I’m back.
Children: Okay.
F: Are you going to see the Baroness again, Father?
CG: Yes. She will come with me when I am back on the evening. Alright, everyone. Dismissed. You too, Frauleine. Make sure your works are already done before the dinner. Frauleine, please change your clothes, will you? This one looks hideous.

M: So, children that is how the history of music started.
K: Huh?
M: Here let me break it down for you,
Do-re-mi

Li: Remember when Father used to sing.
M: What happened?
Li: Our mother died and just like that the music was taken away.
M: I’m so sorry children.
Lo: It’s okay, that was fun! I really enjoyed that!
F: I want to sing more.
M: Maybe later, children.
K: I miss everybody.
M: Who?
K: Our sisters, Brigitta, Marta, and Gretl. I keep thinking one day, they’ll be back.
M: Oh!
Lo: Why does father always have to leave.
