Encanto Play

Abula Alma:
Open your eyes.

Young Mirabel:
This is where our magic comes from?

Abula Alma:
Mmm-hmm. This candle holds the miracle given to our family.

Young Mirabel:
How did we get a miracle?

Abula Alma:
Long ago, when my three babies had just been born, your Abuelo Pedro and I were forced to flee our home.

And though many joined us, hoping to find a new home, we could not escape the dangers and your Abuelo was lost.

But in our darkest moment, we were given a miracle.

The candle became a magical flame that could never go out.

And it blessed us with a refuge in which to live.

A place of wonder.

Young Mirabel:
An Encanto.

Ablua Alma:
An Encanto

Ablua Alma:
The miracle grew.

And our house, our casita itself came alive to shelter us.

When my children came of age, the miracle blessed each with a magic Gift to help us.

And when their children came of age…

Young Mirabel:
They got magic too.

Abula Alma:
That's right. And together, our family’s Gifts have made our new home a paradise.

Tonight, this candle will give you your Gift, mi vida.

Strengthen our community, strengthen our home.

Make your family proud.

Young Mirabel:
Make my family proud. Yes, yes casita, we're going.

What do you think my Gift will be?

Ablua Alma:
You are a wonder, Mirabel Madrigal.

Whatever Gift awaits will be just as special as you.
