Auditions Lyrics > Bare: A Pop Opera

MATT:
But soft! What light through
Yonder window breaks?
It is the East
And Juliet is the sun
Arise, fair sun, and kill
The envious moon

ZACK/ALAN:
Who is already sick and pale
With grief

LUCAS:
That thou her maid art far
More fair than she

ZACK:
Be not her maid
Since she is envious

PETER:
Her vestal livery is but sick
And green

LUCAS/ZACK/MATT:
And none but fools
Do wear it

MALE STUDENTS:
Cast it off
Cast it off

IVY
‘Tis but they name
That is my enemy
Thou art thyself
Though not a Montague
What’s Montague?
It is nor hand nor foot

NADIA:
It is nor hand or nor foot
Nor arm nor face

IVY:
O, be some other name
Belonging to a man

NADIA:
Hey, what’s in a name?

IVY:
That which we call a rose
By any other word

FEMALE STUDENTS:
Would smell as sweet

IVY/TANYA:
My only love sprung from my
Only hate

ALAN/ZACK:
Plague on both your houses

DIANE/KYRA:
Think of marriage now

MATT/PETER/LUCAS:
Thy drugs are quick
Thus with a kiss I die

NADIA/RORY:
He’s dead, he’s dead, he’s dead
He’s dead, he’s dead

SISTER CHANTELLE:
I think I’ve seen all I can stand to see

DIANE:
Sister, I...

CHANTELLE:
Straight tripping girl, I know
You did not just interrupt me
And what’s with the warble?
Snow white in the house
(to Kyra)
You’re quite a dancer
Too bad
You opened your mouth
(to Matt)
I have a romeo who’s well rehearsed...
Then there’s the rest of you
This show has got to be cursed!
This play’s a tragedy
Without a doubt
Now, are there any other fools here
To make me fall out?

JASON:
WIth love’s light wings did I
O’erperch these walls
For stony limits
Cannot hold love out
And what love can do
That dares love attempt

MATT:
Attempt thy kinsman
Are no stop to me

CHANTELLE:
If they do see thee they will murder me

MATT/JASON:
Alack

MATT:
There lies more peril
In thine eye
Than twenty of their swords

JASON:
Look thou but sweet
And I am proof
Against their enemy

DIANE/KYRA/RORY:
I would not for the world
They saw thee here

JASON:
I have night’s cloack to hide me
From their eyes

MATT:
And but thou love me
Let them find me here

MATT/JASON:
My life were better ended
By their hate

JASON:
Than death prorogued
Wanting of thy love

DIANE/KYRA/RORY/IVY:
By whose direction found’st
Thou out this place?

JASON;
By love, that first did prompt
Me to inquire

CHANTELLE:
Enough!
Shut up!
I’ll go make my decisions
Be back in a few
(to Diane)
Girl, what is wrong with you?

PETER:
What made you change your mind?

JASON:
I thought I should try

TANYA:
You nailed it

NADIA:
Unforgettable

MATT:
One talented guy

LUCAS:
Reminder: we’ll meet in Tanya’s
Room on Friday night

JASON:
We’ll be there

NADIA:
You’re not going

LUCAS:
Get me orders

MATT:
I don’t know, I might

LUCAS/JASON:
Remember back when all we needed was beer?

NADIA:
When we were freshman and everything was clear

IVY:
except your skin

LUCAS:
No more catfights once we leave for the rave

NADIA:
Then put the princess in the trunk

IVY:
If we drag her behind
I’ll behave

CHANTELLE:
I’m going to announce the cast list now and I don’t want any drama until the first rehearsal, you got that? You all did very
well and of course everyone is guaranteed a spot in the chorus. Principals: Nadia McConnell.

NADIA:
Surprise.

CHANTELLE:
I said no drama, or you’re gonna need a nurse. Got it?

NADIA:
Yes, Sister.

Capulet Tanya Garrett. Lady Montague, hmmm. Diane Lee, does your father have a camcorder?

Hear my voice

DIANE:
Did you really hear me?

ZACK:
Hear my voice

KYRA:
I don’t think you see me

RORY:
And you think you know me

ALAN:
Did you really hear me?

ZACK:
Would you really know me?

KYRA:
And you think you see me

ALAN:
Hear my voice

JASON:
And you think you know me

NADIA:
But you don’t hear me

JASON:
And you think you know me

NADIA:
See me

JASON:
And you don’t know me

MATT:
Didn’t know you were auditioning.

JASON:
Neither did I. Decided this morning.

MATT:
Just like that, huh?

JASON:
Yep.

MATT:
Well... congratulations.

PETER:
Mom, we both got cast- we’re in the show.

CLAIRE:
Best friends playing best friends-- how poetic!

PETER:
I knew that you
Would want to know

CLAIRE:
Well, you know I’d love you either way, but I love you more now!

PETER:
Oh Mom, here’s Jason.
Say hello!

CLAIRE:
What? Oh, okay.

PETER:
No, nevermind, we have to go

CLAIRE:
Call me with dates, Peter. The whole family will come- even your father. I’ll make sure of it.

PETER:
Love you, Mom.

CLAIRE:
And I love you, Peter. Excelsior!

IVY:
Hey Romeo, you coming?

JASON:
In a sec...
