Goldilocks and the Three Bears [Rhyme] by Peter Bond
Best Seller |
| Roles | Minimum Male roles = 0. Minimum Female roles = 1. Minimum total with doubling = 5. Minimum total without doubling = 5. No chorus. Whilst the bears are nominally male and female, they are, after all, bears, so gender will tend to be disguised! |
| Run Time | Around 7 minutes. [Estimated!] |
| Music | None. |
| Style | Short rhyming play. This approaches the border of the British pantomime genre. (Make you own mind up on that point!) |
| Synopsis | The tale of the Three Bears and the diminutive housebreaker with a novel twist at the end. |

| Goldilocks and the Three Bears [Version 2] by Peter Bond |
| Roles | Minimum Male roles = 3. Minimum Female roles = 2. Minimum total with doubling = 16. Minimum total without doubling = 18. Chorus. A few of the characters are written with a specific gender, but need not be played that way. The chorus is optional. (I suppose one could view that as a chorus of at least no people.) |
| Run Time | Around 100 minutes. [Estimated!] The estimated run time allows for 10 songs. |
| Music | The script includes slots for 10 songs. There are ideas for some of them in the Producer's copy of the script, but all are at the discretion of the production. Lazy Bee Scripts does not supply any sheet music with this script. |
| Style | A full-length British pantomime. |
| Synopsis | King Jarlsberg wants porridge for breakfast but nobody at court is capable of making it, so Goldilocks sets out on a quest across the world to find the perfect porridge recipe. She ends up in Yosemite National Park, where a family of three bears live - and Baby Bear has a brand new chair. Meanwhile, the sinister Baron Gorgonzola is out to nab the recipe for himself.
(Expect some cheesey jokes.) |

| Goldilocks And The Three Bears [Version 3] by Warren McWilliams |
| Roles | Minimum Male roles = 5. Minimum Female roles = 5. Minimum total with doubling = 15. Minimum total without doubling = 37. Chorus. The authors notes suggest that performance with a cast of 15 is possible, but would require losing some of the circus performers from act 2, with redistribution of their lines. Otherwise the minimum would be 21. |
| Run Time | Around 100 minutes. [Estimated!] The run-time assumes the use of the 14 suggested songs. |
| Music | The Producer's Copy of the script includes suggestions for 14 songs. Lazy Bee Scripts does not supply any sheet music with this script. |
| Style | Full-length pantomime straying a long way from the original folk tale with plenty of unusual characters and pantomime silliness. It's a fast-moving panto with plenty of good jokes. |
| Synopsis | Goldilocks, with her brother Billy and their mother Dame Gertie Gemmell, ventures into the woods to recruit a new act for their circus. They find one that's just right - three dancing bears. But the twisted debt collector Mr De Ville is set on closing down all circuses. |
