Presentation
Scene 3:On the Sea
(The fisherman is standing on the coast, looking out towards the sea. Waves can be heard.)
Fisherman:Goldfish, are you there?
Goldfish:(It jumps out.) Yes, Mr. Fisherman. What can I do for you?
Fisherman:Could I have a new house? My wife really wants one.
Goldfish:No problem. You will have a new house very soon.
Fisherman:Oh, a goldfish!
Goldfish:Dear Mr. Fisherman, please let me go. I will give you
whatever you want.
Fisherman:Oh my God! A talking fish! Please go back to your family.
I don’t want anything.
(The goldfish swims back into the sea.)
Scene 4:A New House
(The wife is looking around the new house. The fisherman enters.)
Wife:How stupid you are! Look at me! I have no good clothes and no beautiful
handbags. Go back at once! I want to be a rich lady!
Fisherman:Don’t be angry, my dear. I will go back and ask for that.
(The lights go off. Waves can be heard.)
Fisherman:Goldfish! Are you there?
Goldfish:Yes. What else can I do for you, Mr. Fisherman?
Fisherman:Could you please make my wife a rich lady?
Goldfish:OK.
(The lights come back on. The wife is wearing beautiful new clothes and sitting among servants and guards.)
Wife:Go and see that goldfish at once! I want to be Queen of the Sea and all the fish should serve me!
Fisherman:You are mad! It’s too much.
Wife:You are old and stupid! Go right now, or I will punish you!
Scene 5:On the Sea
(The lights go off. Strong waves can be heard.)
Fisherman:Goldfish! Are you there?
Goldfish:Yes, Mr. Fisherman.
Fisherman:I am sorry, but could you make my wife Queen of the Sea? She also
wants all the fish to serve her.
(There is no reply—only the sound of the waves crashing on the coast. The lights go on. The fisherman’s wife is back in the old house wearing poor clothes again.)
