 JABALÍ THEATER 19-20
NARRATOR: A long time ago, in the distant land of ancient Greece, life was lived a
golden age of powerful gods and extraordinary heroes. And the greatest and strongest of
All these heroes were the mighty Hercules. But what is the measure of a hero?
true, huh? Well, that's what our story... (They cut him off).

THALIA: Do you want to listen to him? He makes this story seem like a Greek tragedy.

TERPSICHORE: Lighten up, dude

CALÍOPE: We will continue, darling...

NARRATOR: All yours, girl...

MELPOMENE: We are the Muses, goddesses of the arts and proclaimer of heroes.

TERPSICHORE: Heroes like Hercules

TALÍA: Darling, you mean Múscules... hehehe, who could sing to the tune of his...

CLIO: Our story actually begins long before Hercules, many eons ago.

CANCIÓN : TAN CIERTO COMO TÚ (PARTE I)

CALIOPE: In the first dawn, the earth was having a terrible time, colossal titans made it hellish.

TERPSICHORE: Where will you place your feet?, a disgust, a stench, wherever you are

MELPOMENE: Volcanoes, earthquakes, chaos, everything upside down

CLIO: Uhh, tell it girl

MUSES: And then Zeus arrived

CALLIOPE: Her ray shot

MUSES: Thundered

TALÍA: And he locked up the bad ones

MUSES: He has done it, only he stopped the real chaos

CALIOPE, MELPOMENE, TERPSICHORE: As certain as you

TALÍA AND CLIO: For a 'type A' there is no

MUSAS: Relax

Life in Olympus

It was sweeter than vermouth (ohhhh)

And although it may seem incredible

It is true like you.

SCENE 2: OLYMPUS

All the Gods appear on stage preparing the surprise welcome party for the baby
of Hera and Zeus. Each one is responsible for a task. In front is Narcissus on one side.
in his mirror and right across Bacchus on his stool and cushions and a small table with his glass of
wine. Aphrodite is in the center scattering petals on the ground when suddenly enters
Nervous Hermes

HERMES: You are still like this, Zeus and Hera are about to arrive and this has nothing to do with a party.
That I am tall. What a welcome for a baby. Can't we do anything?
Good? (Addresses Aphrodite).

Aphrodite: He loves me, he loves me not, he loves me (removes the petals of a flower leaving them
fall on the ground).

HERMES: Beautiful Aphrodite, don't throw so many petals, lest someone slip and fall.
we also have to celebrate a funeral.

APHRODITE: Oh Hermes! How happy I am (twirls) and how beautiful everything looks
full of flowers, don't tell me that.

when he doesn't realize, Vesta throws them to the ground. Every now and then you can hear her.
to complain.)

POSEIDON: But I just put them up! They fall down by themselves!! (Vesta laughs)

VESTA: Maybe it's just that it's PO SEÍ D... hahahaha

POSEIDON: (Without understanding the joke) Poseidon, it's Poseidon, it's meee!!

Vesta gives up and leaves amazed that she didn't catch it. Ares is stacking all the
gift packages, but since he is so forgetful and clumsy, they fall down every so often.

HERMES: (He approaches Ares to shout at him and reprimand him but before doing so, he takes a deep breath and…)
How much clumsiness in a single body.

ARES: Hey, no offense!

POSEIDON: I haven't seen it missing either, but I would check the VAR just in case.

ARES: But what is he saying? (To Poseidon), (Turns to Hermes) I'm doing what I can, man.

about the wine).

ATHENA: Hermes, we are running out of wine.

ARTEMISA: I am sure that this will not reach everyone.

HERMES: But there was a bunch here. Where is it? (The three look at Bacchus at the same time)
Ahem, ahem... Bacooooooo...

BACO: What do you imply? I haven't taken it (They approach)

ARTEMISA: Are you sure?

BACO: But I only have this little cup. Hip! (Tipsy)

ARTEMISA: You wouldn't want your land to bear no fruit this year, would you?

ATHENA: Imagine, a whole year without wine. (Bacchus has a fit and his face changes)
they laugh

BACON: (Confesses in anguish) It's okay, it's okay. (He pulls a sheet uncovering thus
the wine jugs I had hidden) but please do not harm my vineyards
(Supplication).

(In the background, Poseidon can be heard complaining again)

POSEIDON: Again, these things fall down by themselves, man.

HERMES: But what a bunch of lazy people, how are we going to prepare a party with such a...
personal (look at Narcissus, who is combing his hair and with a bunch of girls)

NARCISO: That's what I'm working on, I have to be perfect for the party, I'm going to look like a
star!!

HERMES: (angry) star... yes, star... I wish you were a shooting star.

(Before he explodes with rage, Apollo runs down the hallway shouting.)

APOLO: Hermes, I've seen them, they're arriving, come on, get ready.

HERMES: (To everyone nervously) come on, everyone to their positions.

(everyone starts running and there is commotion. They pose like statues in the postures of gods)
and after a pause three...)

HERMES: one moment, one moment, I forget something (claps twice and the lights go down.
Hera and Zeus enter.

ZEUS: But three... What's going on here, why is it all so dark, Hera, my love, give it to me.

EVERYONE: !! SURPRISE!!

HERA: Wow, I really didn't expect this.

(Artemis and Athena jump on him)

ARTEMISA: Do you like it? We prepared it with all our love.

VESTA: If you say so...

ATHENA: Well, show us that little one. (Everyone gets closer and Hera discovers the baby,
everyone is happy)

OH!!!!!!

ATHENA: How cute!!!

AFRODITA: It... it is...

VESTA: Feo (At the same time)

Aphrodite: Precious! (At the same time)

NARCISO: (To Aphrodite) You are really beautiful, babe.

AFRODITA: Oh, silly, don't say those things to me, I blush.

ARTEMISA: She has the same eyes as her mother.

ARES: Yes, but the nose is just like his father's.

POSEIDON: You have had a very beautiful baby.

VESTA: But... it's just like all newborns... ugly and snotty.

POSEIDON: Sorry, but you are talking about my nephew.

HERA: Don't worry, we all know Vesta, always so nice. (Vesta smiles)
and then he makes a face)

ZEUS: Look! See how charming. He is strong like his father.

HEPHAESTUS: Excuse me!!! Make way!! I'm passing through, I'm burning up (He has a bouquet of flowers)
for Hera)

HERA: Wow Hephaestus, how lovely!

HEPHAESTUS: I told Orpheus to make the arrangements. How cheesy, huh?

APHRODITE: What a party! I haven't seen so much love in one room since Narcissus.

HERA: Of course Hermes! You are an expert at organizing parties. You have no idea how much
I appreciate how well you treat us. (She gives him a kiss and he becomes silly)

wanting and throwing them again)

ZEUS: It's okay, in the name of my son, I want to thank all of you for your magnificent...
gifts.

HERA: Dear, maybe it's time to give our gift, now that we are in such a
good company.

ZEUS: You are right. I left it out there. It's called Pegasus, which means Immortal.
Pegasus, you can come in now! Pegasus? Excuse me, he's a bit shy (Goes out to look for him)

HADES: Well, you know, something dark and gloomy as always... Full of dead people...
Hehehe... Oh! There is the little creature (approaches Hera) little heaven, and here I bring a
pacifier for the chubby one (he brings it closer but abruptly pushes it away pretending it was

very important to us and we love you.

HOST: But we know that now things have changed, and you are having a hard time.
you feel out of place everywhere and that's why we thought it was time and that
You should have known.

HERCULES: But if you found me, where do I come from? Why was I left here?

ALMELA: This was hanging from your neck when we found you, Hercules, it is the symbol of the
Gods.

HERCULES: The symbol of the Gods?

HOST: We don't know who put it on you, nor why, but...

HERCULES: That's it! Don't you understand? They might have the answer. I will go to the temple.

PEGASUS: Is that you, Hercules? I can't believe it. Wow, how you've grown.

ZEUS: Surely you don't remember Pegasus, but you met a long time ago.
He is a magnificent companion. He will accompany you and help you become a hero.
(Whispers to Hercules). He doesn't have much strength and is a bit clumsy, but he'll get you out of more than

Girls!! Stop, come back. Nymphs, I can't get them off me... What's wrong with you, never

HERCULES: Uh... no. Can you help us? We're looking for someone named...

CANCIÓN: MI ÚLTIMA ESPERANZA

He just wants to be a hero, the kid!

Yay!
I have already gone through this drink

with naive people like you

everyone has disappointed me soon
more than a blow this dumb
enough with the excuses if a son of Musa
ask that with a jump he makes me king
my words are two: OK
What pain.
I no longer expected someone with ambition
that the bell would finally ring, not the gong
win awards
money in heaps
something in conditions
but no, always newbies.
I was going back and forth without hope.
idle, grazing grass with great delight
but my advice
of the wise and the old
you are missing
And wow! My ulcer jumps.

22
 JABALÍ THEATER 19-20
My last hope is in you
Although I never imagined you like this.
I tried with a thousand clumsy ones

it was always a burden

you are my last hope.
Demigods tried it.
and they were a laughingstock.
Don't believe the stories
that you are already tired of hearing

the art of being a hero is a gift

to be that, you have to be brilliant
goes to the heart.
It's more than strength
it is what you strive for
You will make your gift be exercised.
We are getting better!
My last attempt and my last feat is,
before the underworld turns against me,
you are my dream
You must comply.
you have to continue
reach your fullness.
My last hope now
it's you! Yes!

HERCULES: Next stop, Olympus.

Chill, don’t rush it, champ.

HERCULES: I'm ready, I want to get out of here and fight some monsters, rescue
maidens... you already know how to do heroic things.

Well...

PEGASUS: Oh come on Phil... Hercules is already prepared.

Alright, alright. A road trip. We're heading to Thebes!

HERCULES: Yujuuu.

PEGASUS: Well... What is there in Thebes?

HERCULES: That's what I ask myself.

Many problems, it is a big and tough city, ideal for building a reputation.

SCENE 9: GUARDIANS OF THE RIVER

(On stage, the two guardians of the river, Set, Foc and Athis. They are doing things and talking)
about things of river guardians. (Meg enters.)

MEG: Hi guys, are you the ones from the river?

ATHIS: Aaaaii!! (they turn around with a jump) What? What do you mean by the ones from the river?

A respect beautiful, we are the 'guardians' of the river.

FOC: Yeah girl, no one wants to cross the river without us giving them permission... uuuuhhh (They
they are approaching Meg)

ATHIS: We are the most feared guardians of the entire river plain.

Our names are known to infinity and beyond.

And that's why we are here... guarding the passage of the living to the other side of the
dark. Because we are, 'the guardians of the river'

MEG: Well, whatever. I was looking for you. Hades sent me.

FOC: Hades?? Why does that name sound familiar to me? Haaaa deeees? (sings a song)
endless) Is it a song?

ATHIS: (Starts singing) Is the answer to a never ending...

SET: Stoooooryyyyy nanaranaranaranarna (Set gives him a slap)

ATHIS: Calla!! Hades!! The evil lord, the god of death… (Pause) But it is very strange,
that you asked about us.

SET: And what do you want exactly? (They move closer to Meg, to seduce her...)

MEG: He wants you to join him to be part of an army of titans and defeat
Zeus.

Wow, what an interesting offer... and to convince us, she sends us a beautiful one.
lady...

Mmmmmmm, whenever he wants to convince us, he sends us nice gifts...

mmmm (With a resting voice)

Yes, Hades has always been very considerate of us.

FOC: He knows how to please us, the one who wants something... (as they talk among themselves)
they are surrounding Meg)

MEG: One moment guys, I think you're mistaken, I just came to...
Let me go! (pushes Pera)

Come on darling, come with us, we will have a good time.

MEG: I told you not to touch me!! Let go of me or…

LOL... I love the fiery ones... (tries to give a kiss)

That sounds like D.E.A.

FIL: Well, remember boy, first analyze the situation, don't rush without thinking and...
Eeehh!! You will lose points for this!!

HERCULES: Stop!!

Get lost, shorty!!

HERCULES: Excuse me, good... uh... uh... men with sticks. I will have to ask you to

with him. Once the fight is over, Hercules and Pegasus celebrate the victory. Phil and Meg in another
side.)

Good job, boy, excellence!!

MEG: Is that strong guy for real?

FIL: What a question, of course it's authentic!! Wow.. and by the way princess, I will tell you in
Two words.. I am too.

I'm telling you, you shouldn't lose focus, and you...

(Hercules has ignored him and has gone with Meg) (Pegasus and Phil look at him angrily)

Beeee....

PEGASUS: I say the same.

HERCULES: He is doing well, miss...

MEG: Megara, my friends call me Meg, or they would if I had any. Well... do you
Did they put any name besides all those undulating pectorals?

HERCULES: hehe... me... hehe... uhh... uhh... pectorals... (as if he were silly)

MEG: Are you always so eloquent?

HERCULES: Hercules! Ahem, ahem... My name is Hercules.

MEG: hehehe... Hercules... I think I prefer Strongman.

HERCULES: And... how did she get mixed up with... with the...?

MEG: The fools with helmets? Men, you know, they think that a 'no' is a 'yes', and
that "go away" is a "take me, I'm yours"... haha. (Hercules looks like he doesn't get it)
Calm down, the satyr will explain it to you later. Well, thanks for everything Herc, it has been
a true pleasure.

HERCULES: Wait, we can accompany her somewhere, more unexpected events may arise.
(Hercules points at Pegasus and Phil and they turn around)

MEG: Hehe.. I don't think your friends will like me very much. Besides, a goat and a dwarf
I don't think they provide much protection. Well, at least the goat has a bad temper, but
the bird...

HERCULES: Pegasus?? No, don't be silly, I would be more than happy to… (throws something at the
head) Ow!!

MEG: I'll be fine, I'm grown up now, I can even tie my sandals by myself. Goodbye strongman...
and thank you.

HERCULES: Goodbye... it's... incredible. Don't you think, Phil?

FIL: Yes... oh, yes, really incredible. A nightmare heavy!

MEG: I don't want to know anything about you, go to hell.

PANIC: That's where we come from, pretty one, the master is waiting for you. (Hades appears)

MEG: Speaking of the devil...

HADES: Meg, my little flower, my little bird, my small nutmeg... what has happened
Exactly here? I thought you were going to convince the river guardians to join.
to my team in the rebellion and here I am without river guardians.

I used my best skills, but they made me a proposal that I had to reject.
what a scum you hang out with, by the way.

HADES: Thank you. Well, instead of subtracting two years from your sentence, I am going to add to it.
two more, okay? I'll fit it with 'your best arts'.

MEG: It wasn't my fault, it was that strong guy... Hercules.

PENA: Hercules? What does that name remind me of?

PANIC: I don't know, maybe we owe him money?

HADES: What? What was the name you said?

Hercules

HADES: Ahhhh!!!!

MEG: I came from an innocent and tough farmer, but I figured him out faster than a muse can sing.

PANIC: Wait, isn't that the name of the kid that we should have...

HADES: What did you occupy yourselves with... 'more dead than our dignity'... Were they not
your exact terms?

menganita girls?

PANIC: Well, then Hercules became fashionable, I think there was a marathon runner.
very famous that was called that, isn't it Pena?

HADES: (Very angry) I am about to reorganize the cosmos, and the only idiot that
could ruin my plan... he strolls through the forest at his ease!!!

PENA: Wait, wait. We can still kill him.

PANIC: Yes, at least we made him mortal... And that's already an achievement, isn't it?

DAMARA: Look girls, this week a central poster of Hercules is coming.

LAVANE: And he doesn't wear armor! How handsome!

THE TWO: Uhhhhh.

ERASMUS: The other day I went to see him in a fight and in the end he looked at me and blew me a kiss.

GALENA: Come on, there must have been a lot of people.

ERASMUS: Yes, but I know that it was thrown at me.

DAMARA: Look girls, tricks to become Hercules' ideal girl.

(Everyone runs out and the promotional items of Hercules are left on the ground).

PERSEPHONE: Can anyone know what all this is? What is happening to the mortals?

HADES: Ahhh!! I can't believe it, everyone adores him, I can't get rid of him,

PERSEPHONE: Yes, it hurt you, didn't it Meg?

MEG: Hey.. that happened a long time ago, and I've learned my lesson.

Then, just as Fil had told me, I analyzed the situation, controlled my strength and... I shook.
Hahaha... the audience went crazy. (Hercules uses Pegasus as a minotaur and they represent him)

ZEUS: Yes, very good son, you make your father proud, and your mother, of course.

HERCULES: I'm glad to hear you say that, father, I have been waiting for this day for a long time.

ZEUS: And what day is that, son?

I am the most famous person in all of Greece, I am, I am... I am an action figure.

ZEUS: I'm afraid that being famous is not the same as being a true hero.

HERCULES: And what else should I do?

ZEUS: That is something you will have to discover for yourself.

HERCULES: But how?

ZEUS: Look inside your heart, I must leave.

Sit down! (throws something or pushes him and Hercules falls to the ground) Now you know what it feels like to
be just like everyone else. Oh, you'll love seeing this little detail, Meg, darling,
a deal is a deal (points and the bugs untie her) You're free! And by the way Herc, don't you think
what is a fabulous and
great actress?

MEG: Enough already!

HERCULES: Why do you say that?

HADES: I mean your little chick was working for me the whole time.

HERCULES: It is not true.

(the bugs come out with the children's wigs and repeat the scene)

PENA: Help, I can't breathe!

PANIC: Hurry, get us out of here.

PENA: Man, you really are strong...

Hahahahaha...

HADES: And without you, I wouldn't have done it, little one, heart, treasure...

MEG: It's not like that! I didn't want to, I couldn't, I... I'm so sorry... (Hercules goes
leaving the scene embarrassed and the bugs around singing to him)

(singing) From Hero to Zero, from Hero to Zero...

HADES: Well, I have to fly away, there's a whole cosmos waiting for me up there with…
Eh! My name in it. Hahahaha. With this, the preliminaries are over, let's move on to

TITANS: Zeus!

SCENE 21: HERCULES IS MORTAL

(Hercules appears on stage shattered and exhausted)

MEG: Hercules, I... I don't know what to say, I've messed everything up and I wish...

HERCULES: Please leave me alone, you have already done enough harm.

I truly didn't want to do it, but I was forced, and I had no choice but to...

HERCULES: I said to leave me alone! I wish I had never met you.

MEG: But Hercules...

Hercules, is that you? What luck to find you.

HERCULES: Injured people? But not me...

PENELOPE: Come on Hercules, do something, it's getting closer each time.

I am so scared.

(Hercules heads towards the curtain where everyone comes out)

MEG: What are you doing?

HERCULES: You have heard them, I am their only hope.

MEG: But without your strength, they will kill you.

HERCULES: There are worse things. (He leaves)

Wait hope.

(Fil and Pegasus appear in the center)

PEGASO: Fil waits, you can't leave now.

MEG: Luckily I found you. We have to do something for Hercules. He needs

our help.

FIL: What does he need us for, having friends like you?

MEG: He doesn't want to listen to me.

Well, he has finally learned something.

MEG: Hey, I know what I did was wrong, but it's about him and not me that we're talking about. And
you are the only ones who can instill some common sense in him.

Get out and leave us all in peace once and for all.

MEG: But you don't understand, he will die if you don't help him.

(Hercules appears pushed from a border curtain)

PEGASUS: (Running towards him) Hercules, are you alright?

HERCULES: Hey guys? Is that you?

PEGASO: Come on champion, fight. You can defeat that massive Titan.

HERCULES: You were right, Phil (Looking at Meg). Dreams are for amateurs.

No no no no no, what is for beginners is to give up. And I've come back because I don't give up.

Nonsense, you have no idea what strength is. A hero is not measured by power.

arms or your legs, but not the strength of your inner self, not the strength that pushes you to keep going

HERCULES: Meg! Nooo! Are you okay?

PEGASUS: Hercules, how did you lift the column?

MEG: Hades' deal is no longer valid. He promised that I would come out unscathed.

HERCULES: Why have you done this? Shouldn't you...?

For love, great craziness is done.

HERCULES: Meg, you...

MEG: Always so eloquent, you don't have much time left, you can still stop Hades.

FIL: We will take care of her, kid. You have to go back to your place.

HERCULES: You are going to be okay. I promise. (He leaves)

The previous scene continues. Hercules walks away from Meg, Pegasus, and Phil with his head down. Phil is going to
talk to him).

FIL: What's wrong, little one?

HERCULES: I think going back is not the best option, after this I shouldn't go back...

FIL: What makes you think that? You have been struggling to go back to where you always have been.
you should have been..

HADES: Too late, Meg is about to make new friends, what were their names?
Ah yes, souls.

HADES: Mmmm, the son of my great enemy trapped forever in the river of death,
What do you think, dear? (Deciding what to do)

HERCULES: At 1...

PERSEPHONE: Hmm, is there some trick? (Looking at Hades)

HERCULES: At 2...

HADES: Alright, alright, alright... okay, okay, okay. If you take it out
she lives, you stay.

HERCULES: Deal done.

HADES: (When Hercules goes to find Meg) Ahhh, I almost forgot, you will die before you arrive
until her.

The three witches appear in a corner of the stage with Meg's life thread.

PERSEPHONE: Very well ladies, leave Meg's thread alone and get ready to cut the
thread of the life of this jerk.

PAST: Oh, with how much I wanted her.

FUTURE: (While taking out the Hercules thread) Don't worry dear this dish is much
more appetizing.

PRESENT: Say goodbye, strongman.

WITCHES: Hahahahaha

funny, so you know if you say a little word in our favor so that he forgets about
all this nonsense...

PERSEPHONE: You are a liar, you promised me to be the queen of Olympus, and the only thing you have
It has been dragging me with you towards another plan of failure.

HADES: Persephone darling, don't you see that it's a bad time to argue?
(Hercules pushes him towards the souls that engulf him and take him out of the scene)

HADES: Get away from me, don’t touch me, take your filthy hands off me!
(The souls are taken off stage while both scream)

PANIC: I'm afraid they won't be in a good mood when they get out of there.

PITY: That is if they manage to get out of there

Panic and shame: (They laugh as they exit the scene) hahahahaha

Hercules approaches the side where Meg is with Phil and Pegasus.
