Ooo, Johnny Surfcrest���he���s my favorite. I love it when he says, (standing on a chair, using a microphone out of something, and imitating) ���I���m Johnny Surfcrest���and I can make you (grand point gesture to the audience) a star!��� (Kids laugh) MONIQUE: The staff at Camp Heart and Soul is . . . understandably, very excited! (She giggles, then controls herself) Ahem. Before our host arrives, let���s hear from some of our returning campers. Any reactions or words of advice for our new campers? (some kids raise hands.) Wonderful. Stand up, please, and tell us your name. Yes? (pointing to Tiffany) y CLARE: nl (Tiffany plays a bit on violin) O 6 I���m Tiffany, but you can call me T. And yes, you all know I play the violin. This is my third time here at Camp Heart and Soul, and I am really excited to compete in the talent competition this year! MONIQUE: Thanks, T. Anyone else? ZACH: Hi, I���m Zach, and I���m a (grabs mic and adds reverb; says it slowly) sound technician. I hope everyone new has a great time and isn���t afraid to ask for help when they need it. We���re all in this together! (kids clap) rP re v ie w TIFFANY: (rapping) And even if you fall, we���ll be right there when you call. My name is Judah. I���m a rapper. Hallelujah! (kids laugh) MONIQUE: Well! We don���t have to guess what your talent is, Judah. (excited) Oh, it looks like our guest is arriving! Campers, it is my great pleasure to introduce . . . (Rick���s assistant hands her a card and whispers something) Oh, wait a minute . . . Oh, I see . . . (to students) it looks like there has been a last minute change of plans. Camp Heart and Soul, will you help me welcome . . . (reading from the card) . . . Mr. Rick Bricklebee! (Kids start to clap, then it turns to confusion: ���what?��� ���who?���and clap hesitantly) Fo JUDAH: BRICKLEBEE: (Newscaster, comes out with a flourish, oblivious to the kids��� confusion. He is trailed by a shy, bustling personal assistant) Thank you, thank you. What a welcome! My close personal friend, Johnny Surfcrest, had an unexpected obligation and couldn���t make it. Okay, he���s not a close friend but I was his first choice as a replacement host . . .
