The Muppet Show: Starring Bridget Thomson!
DRESSING ROOM
Scooter:10 minutes to show time Ms. Bridget!
Me: Thank you Scooter! I'll be out in just a minute!
(Scooter exits dressing room)
Me: (I hold up two shades of lipstick looking into the mirror. One shade red and the other pink.)
Now let's see. If I wear red I look fiery and fabulous! But, if I wear pink I'll be pretty and petite! Ugh. Being a gal is NOT easy.
(There's a sudden knock at the door)
Me: (calling towards door) Who is it?
Kermit: (on other side of door) Oh, it's just me!
Me: (scattering to fix my makeup and hair really quickly. I make a quick "flirtfilled" smile at the mirror.) Come In!
Kermit: Bridget!
Me: Kermit! How are you?
Kermit: I'm doing great! Hey listen, I'm very honored to be singing with you in your big number later on!
Me (jaw drops) You, you are?
Kermit: Sure, sure. It's not every day a frog gets to sing with the Queen Of Pink!
Me: (looks at him surprisingly) Really?
Kermit: Sure!
Me: (smiling lovingly) That really touches my heart Kermit!
Kermit: (head nod) Well look, I have to go open the show but it was a real pleasure talking to you!
Me: Aww... The pleasure is all mines!
(Kermit begins walking towards the door)
Me: (All Of A Sudden) Oh, Kermit!
(He turns back around to face me)
Kermit: Hm?
Me: What's your favorite color?
Kermit: Well uh, I love every color in the rainbow. But if I
must pick...
Me: Green?
Kermit: You got it.
Me: (excited) Thanks! That's all I needed to know!
Kermit: Okay.
(He exits)
Me: (I pull out my green lipstick) Hey. Anything for the frog!
