SCENE 1
(The game players appear in Babylon one at a time. They're
wearing adventurer costumes, jumpsuits with backpacks, each
character slightly modified for personality. All look around in
amazement and wonder.)
DAISY: It worked! We're really here!
POPPY: We are, Daisy, and this game is incredible! It's like the real
Babylon!
JAY: You said it, Poppy. This is the Best. Game. Ever!
EMMA: I don't see Harry anywhere.
JAY: I'm sure he'll be here soon. Let's start looking for the treasure!
(Emma sees something in the direction of the audience and starts
tiptoeing downstage. She stops at the edge and looks to the
audience.)
DAISY: Yeah, we probably need to collect some type of currency, so
we'd better get started.
(Excitedly, Emma waves everyone over.)
EMMA: (whisper-yells) Hey! Hey!
ALL: (As they approach on tiptoe, they ad lib, "What?" "What do you
see?" etc.)
EMMA: Shhh!
(They're all looking into the audience.)
JAY: (regular voice) Who are they?
ALL: Shhh!
POPPY: (whisper in amazed realization) They must be Babylonians!
EMMA: (whispers) You think they see us?
