🎬 Scene: The Laboratory
(There’s a big table with bottles, tubes, and colored water. A big sign says: “BOOM LAB”)
🎙 Narrator (calm, clear voice):
In a big, messy lab, three mad scientists are working.
They mix, they spill, they laugh… and maybe… make a mistake!
🧪 Professor Boom (big voice, wide arms):
“Ha ha ha! I am Professor Boom! Today, we make… a TALKING POTION!”
(laughs loudly, makes crazy eyes)
🧪 Dr. Zing (shy, scared voice):
“A talking potion? Oh no… That’s… scary!”
(shakes hands, hides behind a book)
🧪 Dr. Blip (small, excited voice):
“Yes! Boom! Bang! Zip! I love potions!”
(jumps up and down, knocks over a cup)
🤖 Robot Z9 (robot voice, stiff movement):
“Warning. Warning. Potion is… unstable.”
(moves arms like a robot, blinking)
🧪 Professor Boom (winks, laughs):
“No problem! We add… red slime! And green juice!”
(pretends to pour ingredients, makes bubbling sound)
💥 Dr. Zing (nervous):
“Be careful! Be careful! It’s too hot!”
(backs away, eyes wide)
🧪 Dr. Blip (holds ears):
“It’s bubbling! It’s bubbling!”
(Suddenly, the potion bottle shakes. A big POP sound! Kids can clap or use a balloon to
pop.)
🧴 Potion 1 (slow voice, surprised):
“Helloooooo… I am… alive!”
(slowly rises up from behind the table like a puppet or student in costume)
😱 Dr. Zing:
“Ahhh! It talks!”
🧪 Professor Boom (proud, arms up):
“Yes! Yes! It works! I did it!”
🧴 Potion 2 (happy voice, dances):
“I want to sing! I want to dance!”
(wiggles, dances around the table)
🤖 Robot Z9:
“Error. Potions are… singing.”
🧴 Potion 1 and Potion 2 (together, cheerful):
“We are happy potions! Let’s dance!”
(they dance, other scientists look confused)
🧪 Dr. Blip (laughs):
“Maybe… we made a PARTY potion!”
🧪 Professor Boom:
“Noooo! Not a party! I wanted a monster!”
(pretends to cry dramatically)
🧴 Potion 1:
“We are not monsters! We are… your friends!”
🧪 Dr. Zing (smiles, relieved):
“That’s okay. I like friends.”
🎙 Narrator (smiling):
And so… the mad scientists made something new.
Not a monster. Not a robot. But… two silly, happy potions!
(everyone waves and bows)
