經(jīng)典英語戲劇劇本：安德魯?朗-美女與野獸

Beauty and the Beast美女與野獸

Narrator:

旁白:

Once upon a time, in a faraway land, a young prince lived in a shining castle. Although he had eve叭hing his heart desired, the prince was spoiled, selfish，and unkind. But then，one winter's night, an old beggar woman came to the castle and offered him a single rose in return for shelter from the bitter cold. Repulsed by her haggard appearance, the prince sneered at the gift and turned the old woman away, but she warned him not to be deceived by appearances, for beauty is found within. And when he dismissed her again，the old woman’s ugliness melted away to reveal a beautiful enchantress. The prince tried to apologize，but it was too late, for she had seen that there was no love in his heart, and as punishment, she transformed him into a hideous beast, and placed a powerful spell on the castle, and all who lived there. Ashamed of his monstrous form，the beast concealed himself inside his castle, with a magic mirror as his only window to the outside world. The rose she had offered was truly an enchanted rose, which would bloom until his twenty-first year. If he could learn to love another, and earn her love in return by the time the last petal fell, then the spell would be broken. If not, he would be doomed to remain a beast for all time. As the years passed, he fell into despair, and lost all hope, for who could ever learn to love a beast?

很久很久以前，在一個遙遠(yuǎn)而又美麗的城堡里住著一個年輕的王子，雖然他擁有了一切他想要的東西，但這個王子卻被寵壞了，他的脾氣非常暴躁還很自私。在一個寒冷的夜晚，城堡前來了個又冷又餓的老太婆，要用她的一朵玫瑰花，去跟這個王子換取一個能棲身的地方，王子拒絕了這個衣衫檻褸的老太婆，對于她的禮物，王子很不屑，并且很殘忍地要把她趕走，這個老太婆警告王子不要只看外表，內(nèi)在才是最美麗的根本。王子不理會，又一次兇狠地把她趕走了。突然這個丑陋的老太婆變成了一個非常美麗的女人。王子趕緊向她道歉，但是已經(jīng)太遲了，因為她發(fā)現(xiàn)王子沒有一點兒愛心。為了懲罰王子，她把他變成了一只野獸，并對整個城堡以及里面的人下了咒語。巨大而恐怖的野獸羞于他的外表，終日把自己鎖在城堡里。他只有一個魔鏡，可以看見外界的情形。那個女人留下的玫瑰變成了魔法花，將在王子二十一歲時綻放，如果在最后一片花瓣凋落之前，王子能夠?qū)W會愛人，而且也有人愛他，那所有的咒語就會解除。否則，他將終生是一頭野獸了。時間一天天過去了，他陷入了失望與絕望之中，因為有誰會去愛一只野獸呢?

助手:嗯沒有一只野獸可以從你手上逃走，就連女人也是啊。

Gaston: It's true，Lefou，and I've got my sights set on that one! (pointing to Belle)

加斯頓:那是當(dāng)然。而且我的目標(biāo)是那個。(指著貝兒)

Gaston; Belle, it's about time you got your head out of those books and paid attention to more important things...like me! The who town's talking about it. It's not right for a woman to read-一 soon she starts getting ideas and thinkings.

加斯頓:貝兒，你不該整天鉆在書堆里，而應(yīng)該注意一些重要的事情。……比如說我!全城的人都在議論。女人不應(yīng)該看太多的書啊，不然她就會有思想、有見解了。
