Avalon's Opening Skit

HEY HEY HEY PEOPLE, here's how our opening skit for Day 1 of orientation is gonna be. We will act it out on 27th itself.

THE CREW

Avalon: Shi Han (DUH)
The villager: Asyraf
The beast: Yours truly, Jiehao
The mighty large leaf: Denis
The bird: Shiang Nee
The butterfly: Charmaine
The tree army: Everyone else!

THE STORYLINE

The villager walks out with his umbrella one day, strolling. The beast then creeps up behind the villager. The villager notices the beast, and tries to fight the beast with his umbrella, but TO NO AVAIL. So, the villager tries to run away, but the beast is so fast that he manages to kill the villager by digging through his heart! Then, Avalon comes to salvage the day (since the villager's dead already). She tries to whack the beast with her flute, but the beast dodges her attacks. Fed-up, she summons her tree-army with her flute, and they hold down the beast. Avalon then shoots one of her leaf blades, which transforms into a mighty large leaf blade, and taupoks the beast, leaving the beast dead. Victorious, Avalon does her victory march, and attracts the birds and butterfly revive the dead villager. With the beast destroyed, her kingdom lives happily ever after.

SKIT

The main idea of our skit is...

first, there will be a beast walking out, killing some villagers. at the same time, there are rows of tree armies(in ponchos with leaves). then avalon, a female warrior walks out and attempts to kill the beast, however she alone is unable to do it. finally, she plays her magic flute and taa daa, the butterflies all flew to her, the trees TRANSFORMS into the army and together the army and avalon killed the beast. VICTORY!!

MANNEQUIN

so for the mannequin..
the knight will wear some forest looking costume.. may be ponchos with leaves or twigs??
then we will be making a shield for it right??? with cardboard boxes...
it will also carry a flute and a spear

items needed:
spear- denis
shield
flutle
poncho
leaves

XiangLin, the design for the mannequin right, just crop out the knight in the banner design and send to the sc ppl!! thanks:)

pls tell xiang lin if you have any other suggestions..

Storyline

Long ago in the history of time, there lived a ferocious beast in the mythical forest of Brocéliande, off the coast of Brittany. This beast killed many innocent people in nearby villages. Brave warriors and soldiers who sought the life of this beast all died in its lethal hands.

Greatly perturbed by this beast, Avalon, a female warrior residing in the forest, decided to kill this beast once and for all. Using her magical flute, Avalon managed to call for the elements of the forest and finally exterminated this beast.

After her victory, Queen Victoria named Avalon the Warrior of The Forest. She set up a formidable army in the forest and became invincible. Together with her army, Avalon fought and killed numerous enemies and beasts that tried to take away Queen Victoria’s life.

Though courageous and invincible, Avalon has a soft side to her. With her magical flute, she is able to call for all the butterflies and birds, which are her friends in the forest.
