Jack O' Hare As The Bunny of The Opera

This is a short musical play I wrote tonight entitled The Bunny of the Opera.

It stars Jack O' Hare (the wild hare jack rabbit who lives in my back yard) as the Bunny of the Opera.

Jack O' Hare (sings): I am the very model of the modern vegetarian
with my big ears, I can hear approach of carnovarian...


Christine Daae (sings): The bunny of the opera is there inside my mind...

Jack O' Hare: I eat vegetable but not animal or mineral..

Christine Daae: Jack, Jack, can you see my rack...?

(She unbuttons the buttons on the top of her dress)

Jack O' Hare: Is this some silicone I see before me?
Come let me clutch thee...

(Jack O' Hare grabs the top of her dress but there's nothing there)

Jack O' Hare: I have thee not
and yet I see thee still
in form as palpable as this which now I draw...

(Jack O' Hare stops to sketch a drawing of Jessica Rabbit in a low-cut dress with her nice knockers)

Christine Daae (sings): It's just holographic images inside your mind...

Jack O' Hare: Fair Leonardo, what foul Inception is this?

Christine Daae: In dreams you came on me...

Jack O' Hare (pointing at Christine Daae): I did not have sexual relations with that woman...

Christine Daae: The ears that draw to me and hear my name...

Jack O' Hare: Eat once again with me
this strange car-rot...

Christine Daae: Those who have seen your ears
draw back in fear
some muffs you must wear

Jack O' Hare: But then I can't hear...

Both (sing) Your/my spirit and your/my voice combined
The Bunny of the Opera is there
Inside my/your mind

Christine Daae (sings): Jack I love your tail
that sits your tiny rear...

Jack O' Hare (sings): Christine my dear
watch out for that chandelier...

(Both jump out of the way as a chandelier crashes down on stage)

CURTAIN.
