Once Upon an orphanage my life was a
near tragic State
I longed to find a brighter place
somewhere full of love and grace I dream
of fields with a cool Ocean Breeze a
home for my own family
when I got my wish I pinched myself to
make sure this home was real
they said for a boy but then I was a
girl my dreaming had just let me down
again if I came as a queen this long
ebony hairs and maybe they'd feel I was
worth it for them I'm a good worker in
spite of My Talking I belong to belong
here for all of my life don't send me
away without
you I see everything I touch is full
best to not let you down I can imagine a
world full of joy just give me your hand
and I'll teach you to hope you'll find
that I have something worthwhile just
let me stay here and I'll love you
forever I promise a life full of smiles

Diana wanted to try this new shampoo
behind the house

well there are lots of worse things in
this world Peg Bowen gave us this
it's a magic potion

your Dreadful circumstances Diana
hmm
it's going to be the best costume
sleepover ever it's not fair I have to
go stay at Gilbert's for the night

that Cinderella quality or after go on
try it no I
Here Comes Miss King

[Music]
I'm glad you told me Diana head lice are
always a bother but take certain
precautions and you can prevent them
from spreading I'm Sorry Miss King good
Heaven's child it's no more your fault
than if you were bitten by a mosquito or
stung by a bee and lice can happen to
anyone
what's wrong we know Diana you have
things in your hair don't you ever wash
hey girl dirty girl
that's not fair Miss King said any body
can get head lice it's got nothing to do
with being dirty well I for one wouldn't
play with someone who has head lice me
neither yeah we might all catch it
won't I'm being very careful and sorry
Diana but for our sake we request that
you keep your distance
say to a game of tag before the Bell
Rings
Dirty Girl Dirty I knew it they're
shunning me it's beastly and it isn't
right
Diana's our friend she's one of us we
should be sticking together you're it
here I come
well listen you can't do this to Diana
we already have in fact if you insist on
associating with her we'll ignore you
too but what did I do
this is the worst day of my life once
your lights are gone people will speak
to you again you'll see I don't care if
they ever speak to me again
I don't need them we all need friends
Diana there's nothing worse than not
having friends
oh and
and may we speak to you for a moment uh
oh
better see what they want
don't forget we're all going to my place
to decorate for the sleepover oh yes
I'll come over after I walk Diana home
why I hear she has plenty of company
Diana and her
guests are obviously Uninvited to my
sleepover nobody wants to sleep next to
someone with lice
but the lights will be gone by then
no decorating no sleepover either come
with us now or you'll be Uninvited too
me yeah we don't want you bringing
Diana's creepy crawlies with you oh
don't be silly there's nothing wrong
with me not yet
they want me to help decorate and you
want to go with them I really want to go
to the sleepover I worked on my costume
for a month
fine then go if that's what you want oh
Diana thank you I simply can't miss out
on this we can be together tomorrow
I'm here and ready to decorate great
decorating's better than being nice to
lice
[Laughter]
[Music]
I've asked you matey hmm not bad
gesundheit
[Music]
thank you did you have a nice time at
felicities most enjoyable Gilbert hit
his finger with a hammer he was very
brave and pretended that it didn't smart
but his fingernail turned a rather icky
shade of purple almost the same colors
the ribbons we used to festoon the porch
Felix didn't believe that festooned was
a word
so Amy and I festooned him with so much
ribbon that he couldn't move it was such
fun how much fun do you think it was for
Diana
it's a shame she couldn't be there I
know the others are being beastly must
be awful to be ignored by everybody I
couldn't bear it
that's why I'll stand by her I'll be a
true friend
[Music]
I know you had a potion for Diana maybe
it'll work for me
Felicity
the medicine will work but you shouldn't
have waited a whole week before coming
to me it's just that I was afraid to
tell anybody if people at school knew I
had head lice it'd be mortified
wait till Diana hears this
[Music]
Diana Diana guess what Felicity has head
lice
she got them last week before you did
you betrayed me how could you do that to
me how what you've left me alone while
you went off with the others all I did
was help with the decoration you didn't
want them to ignore you that was more
important to you than our friendship why
are you angry with me it was Felicity
who started it Felicity is not my bosom
friend when you went off with them it
was like you were saying they were right
to shun me Diana I'm sorry I didn't know
I let you down I hope you can find it in
your heart to forgive me
I don't know I'll make it up to you I
promise I can't wait to see felicity's
face when we tell the others about her
well as I did you're right that is a
noble choice to make and I will make it
with you even if every ounce of my being
wants to get back at her
[Music]
that was a good time decorating watch
out Felix or Anne might festoon you
again careful or I might just festoon
your hair with some creepy crawlies oh
no anything but that creepy crappies
creepy crawlies
uh
Diana I I oh no
so far you have named four wives but
Henry VII had Six Wives Diana I made a
terrible mistake can anyone tell me
who's missing Catherine Parr well done
Diana that leaves one uh Florence
Nightingale that would be difficult
Felix she wasn't born for another 300
years
come now King Henry knew the names of
his wives and so should you and Berlin
yes ambulin who betrayed the king who
can tell me what price and paid for her
betrayal and
I don't know Diana for her betrayal Ann
was beheaded
[Music]
Diana I'm trying to make amends but
you've ignored me all day now you know
how I feel Diana wait oh and what have
you done
hey you've done the right thing if you
ask me and why pray tell would anyone
want to ask you do you really think I
did the right thing of course you did
all that matters is looking out for
yourself listen to him no consideration
for anyone else I have to struggle for a
few rays of sunlight on my leaves this
little girl needs to do what it takes to
keep her friends me I give anything for
a social life beyond you then why don't
you just leave no I wish I could here we
go again
[Music]
I Lament The Day the wind blew our seeds
together I can't believe you once a part
you've always seemed so inseparable
Diana
forget about her that's my advice if you
don't care about anybody but yourself
then who will care about you you'll be
lonely and unhappy when I came to
Avonlea I didn't have a single friend
aren't we exaggerating just a trifle for
once I agree with you it's true Diana is
my first and best friend she's always
stood by me I remember when Gilbert
called me carrots
it was Diana who understood how awful I
felt and tried to help me get rid of my
red hair
even if her idea didn't quite work
and when I didn't have a puff sleeve
dress to wear to meet the grand Amelia
Evans Diana offered to loan me her best
one she cried when it was ruined because
she knew how much it meant to me that's
how much we cared for one another
Diana extended her friendship to a poor
orphan that's a precious gift and I
should never toss it aside no matter
what the consequences
such a
story can you ever forgive me for
wanting to back up my drunk and leave
here we are and here we'll stay friends
for another hundred years
[Music]
to be together and so do Diana and I
Diana
go away Diana I made a terrible mistake
but our friendship means more than the
entire world to me you're not my friend
anymore I would rather have no friends
than a false friend I can't count on
foreign
[Music]
if only we could go back in time and
erase our mistakes
we're only human Anne we all make
mistakes the true test of friendship is
how we deal with them but I've lost
Diana friendships aren't built in a day
they're not lost as quickly either I
feel so wretched you can be sure that
Diana is going through an even rougher
patch if you don't forgive yourself and
get on with it how are you going to help
a friend who needs you
Marilla you're right
[Laughter]
[Music]
and the ball
[Music]
Amy's safe
it's your turn Felix and can play Third
Base
[Music]
you're supposed to be on Third and what
are you doing
look I'm warning you Anne if you don't
play with us now you'll never play with
us again you ought to be ashamed of
yourselves you should be helping her not
turning your back I've never seen such a
bunch of cowards you have no right to
talk to us that way
I certainly do because I'm the worst of
the lot I ignored Diana to be with you
even though Diana is the best friend
I've ever had I don't care about your
sleepover Felicity I don't care if none
of you ever speak to me again I did
betray Diana I might not get my head
chopped off but still there's no worse
crime because best friends should stand
by one another no matter what well that
was dramatic now can we get on with our
game
okay
thank you
for what you said Diana I wish with all
my heart that there was something I
could do to make amends well for
starters I could use a push
my pleasure
laughs
[Music]
I don't need this you're supposed to
wear it it messes my hair if you don't
wear the helmet you can't bat it's a
rule
fine I'll wear the helmet don't do it
Felicity it isn't fair to the others
what do you what are you talking about
we know you have a problem you shouldn't
spread it around
why don't you be Noble and admit it
before you bring new meaning to the word
nitwit
[Music]
I can't I don't want to be shunned
you won't be well not by me anyway
I have an announcement to make I
I have head lice too just like Diana
wait until mother and father hear this
why don't we just all play ball
Diana can take first base Felicity can
play second and and can bat let's play
batter up
come on we don't want to be late
Cinderella never walked to her ball
these are my two favorite trees and why
is that
they're Inseparable just like Diana and
me did your little visitors skedaddle
yes thank you now that Felicity is
scared too we're finally having that
sleepover best gift to it before my Crow
picks a fight with your feathered friend
[Music]
yes ma'am
[Music]
[Music]
thank you
[Applause]
