Aladdin and his "magic" carpet.

So yesterday morning I get a call from KAw. She's in my mia-maid class, and I had overslept into our activity the whole stake youth were doing from 10am-7:30pm. The first annual stake improv roadshow.
Now we've had roadshows before in the past, in fact our ward did Snow White and I was one of the evil crows, like five or six years ago, but this roadshow we did last night was improv. Our appointed ward leader, Sis. Gomez, pulled Aladdin as our theme out of a hat. We had to think up a skit that didn't exceed 7 minutes, had a dance number in it, and had a primary song somewhere within it. We didn't have to use the words per se, to the primary song, but we had to use either the words, the tune, or both. We just used the tune of "Popcorn Popping on the apricot tree," and changed the words to

I looked into the Cave of Wonders and what did I see?
A bright, shiny lamp just waiting for me.
Stealing has brought me such a nice surprise....

And then we went from there into the plot. Pretty much it was amazing. Instead of three wishes, Aladdin and the Genie settle on two wishes. His first wish was to find a girl that didn't mind his horrendous B.O. So Jasmine was this crazy girl who was in love with his smelling like bacon grease, onions, and sour apple. My favorite line was one that we hadn't planned on, that the guy playing A
laddin just said comedically during rehearsal and we kept with it.

Aladdin: Wow, you've got a nice palace. You must be pretty rich.

Jasmine: Yeah sorta.

Aladdin: Hey! You wanna smell my pits again?

Jasmine: Sure! Can I?

Aladdin: Go ahead!

Jasmine: ( inhales deeply ) ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...........


And from there they go on into the plot, and eventually live happily ever after, even after Jafar tried to deodorize Aladdin and end their love. But all turns out okay in the end because Aladdin makes up for it by being a really good dancer.
What part in this play did I participate in you ask? I was the lamp. Only things changed when it was ACTUALLY time to perform.
The reason this was considered improv was because RIGHT as we get onto stage and are setting up to perform our skit, the judges change our storyline so we have to act around it. So even though we have all our lines practically memorized, they change things around and try to see if we can perform the story anyways. We had it better off than some people. In the story of Cinderella, she had two evil step ninjas instead of sisters, and instead of Humpty-Dumpty sitting on a wall, he was on cacti.
Our changes were pretty simple, and easy to work around. In stead of me being a Magic Lamp, I was a magic Ipod. And in place of a Genie, we had a Magic Undertaker. Yeah...
Everything went well though.
Since our ward had so many youth, we split into two Aladdin groups and did completely different story lines. The changes the other group had were hilarious. Instead of a magic lamp they had a Magic Bedpan, and instead of a magical genie, they had a magical Carpet Cleaner man.

You get three magic wishes.....and it comes with a free carpet cleaning!
