Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for April 15, 2013

Practicing being a drama queen. Dakota will get the plum role.

Oh I wounder what the play will be? Let me think best plays for this strip: Romeo & Juliet: because every every one does it. Why not? The Last Unicorn, don quichotte..some thing with a part for Marigold. Greece, popular among kids, children love doing it. Little Mermaid, Alice in Wounder land, Wizard of Oz, Peter Pan, Marry Poppins, would use magic or fantasy world research, The Invisible Man: So Phoebe could be invisible on stage, Phantom Of the Opera, I just like the song, Sound of music, Gone with the wind, they got great costumes or songs, Carmen, because I have Hey Arnold on the mind, Pete’s Dragon: gives Todd some thing to do.Batman: I want to see Phoebe in a cape. Or maybe some generic school play delivering a {SA or a lesson, like good health or say no to drugs. Lots of choices and I don’t have time for every thing.

Maybe the play will be something like Charlie and the Choclot Factory. Or perhaps someithing like Once Upon A Matteress. Either of those would be fun, Marigold might be able to crash in at an oppurtune moment, and it will be light.

In an anime called Card Captor Sakura, Sakura got the lead role in the play Sleeping Beauty. That is, she played the prince. Her rival for collecting the Clow Cards (as well as for Yuki’s attention), well, he got the part of Sleeping Beauty. :D I can picture Phoebe as a prince.

What ever it is Dakota will get the female lead. But the true thespians know that the lead villain is always the best role, Phoebe would be perfect.

Will Phoebe’s humility be splendid?

I just had a thought. Might be fun to have a play about unicorns where the play write had all the facts about unicorns wrong, then when Pheebs tries to fix the play she gets scolded for changing the script and making stuff up.

Or she has to play some thing that makes her and max dress up as foxes.

or They could do Star Trek TNG Have Dakota Play The Captain and she could go bald again.

Or maybe She could do Rapunzel and we would see Ultra long hair Dakota again.

You’re a good Queen of Drama P., but I fear Dakota is a natural one.

Just please….NOT Mamma Mia!

Phoebe sounds like she is reading from a Doctor WHO script. :)

You’re doing a great job so far Phoebe!

My wife and I just saw an amateur “Titus Andronicus” Friday.
