Encanto Play Page #7

The cracks started with you.

Bruno left because of you.

(CRACKING)

Luisa’s losing her powers. Isabela’s out of control.

Because of you!

I don’t know why you weren’t given a Gift, but it is not an excuse for you to hurt this family.

(BREATHING HEAVILY)

(CRACKING GROWS LOUDER)

(SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING)

I will never be good enough for you.

Will I?

No matter how hard I try.

No matter how hard any of us tries.

Luisa will never be strong enough.

Isabela won’t be perfect enough.

Bruno left our family because you only saw the worst in him.

Bruno didn’t care about this family.

He loves this family.

I love this family. We all love this family.

You’re the one that doesn’t care.

(PEOPLE EXCLAIMING)

You’re the one breaking our home.

Don’t you ever…

The miracle is dying, because of you.

(GASPS SOFTLY)

(GASPING) No, no, no!

FÉLIX:
(GASPS) The candle!

(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING)

(GRUNTING)

No! (PANTING)

(PANTING)

(GASPS)

Careful, Antonio! (GRUNTS)

We gotta get out of here!

Mirabel! Mirabel!

Mirabel, we have to get out!

(ALL GRUNT)

(GRUNTING)

(YELLS)

Mirabel!

Mirabel!

JULIETA:
Mirabel, leave it!

(GRUNTS)

AGUSTÍN:
Mirabel! The house is going to fall!

JULIETA:

(PANTS, GASPS)

(CREAKING)

(GASPS)

JULIETA:

Mirabel, are you hurt?

Mirabel!

PEPA:
Julieta, come quick!

(BREATHING HEAVILY)

Julieta!

Don’t move. I’ll be right back.

PEPA:
How did this happen?

DOLORES:
Here, let me help you. Let me help you.

AGUSTÍN:
Everyone okay?

PEPA:
Antonio, don’t cry, papito.

FÉLIX:
How is this possible? The encanto’s broken.

PEPA:
What do we do now?

CAMILO:
My powers. They’re gone.

What about Antonio? What is he gonna do?

Mirabel?

Mirabel! Where’s Mirabel?

Where is she?

Mirabel!

FÉLIX:

Mirabel!

LUISA:

(CRYING)

(SNIFFLING)

(FOOTSTEPS APPROACH)

ABUELA:
Mirabel.

(SNIFFS, CRIES SOFTLY)

I’m sorry.

(CRIES) I didn’t want to hurt us.

I just wanted to be something I’m not.

(CRIES)

I’ve never been able to come back here.

This river is where we were given our miracle.

Where Abuelo Pedro…

I thought we would have a different life.

I thought I would be a different woman.

(DOS ORUGUITAS PLAYING)

MAN:
(SINGING IN SPANISH) Two caterpillars

(IMPERCEPTIBLE)

In love

Spend their nights and dawns

Full of hunger

They keep walking

And navigating the world

That changes and keeps changing

Navigating a world

That changes and keeps changing

Two caterpillars stop the wind

As they hold each other with warmth and consent

Keep growing They don’t know when

To find some corner shelter

The time keeps changing

They are inseparable

And the weather keeps changing

(IMPERCEPTIBLE)

Oh, caterpillars

Don’t hold each other any longer

You must grow apart and return

That’s the way forward

Miracles are coming

Chrysalises are coming

You must part

And construct your own future

Oh, caterpillars

Don’t hold each other any longer

You must grow apart and return

That’s the way forward

Miracles are coming

Chrysalises are coming

You must part

And construct your own future

Two caterpillars

Disoriented

In two cocoons

All bundled up

ABUELA:
I was given a miracle.

A second chance.

And I was so afraid to lose it that I lost sight of who our miracle was for.

And I am so sorry.

You never hurt our family, Mirabel.

We are broken… because of me.

(MUSIC ENDS)

(HOPEFUL MUSIC PLAYING)

MIRABEL:
Abuela.

I can finally see.

You lost your home.

Lost everything.

You suffered so much, all alone, so it would never happen again.

We were saved because of you.

We were given a miracle, because of you.

We are a family, because of you.

And nothing could ever be broken that we can’t fix… together.

I asked my Pedro for help.

Mirabel.

He sent me you.

(DOS ORUGUITAS PLAYING)

MAN:
(SINGING IN SPANISH) Oh, butterflies

Don’t hold each other any longer

You must grow apart and return

That’s the way forward

You are already miracles

Breaking chrysalises

You must fly

And find your own future

BRUNO:
She didn’t do this! Whoa!

She didn’t do this!

I gave her a vision!

(GRUNTS) It was me!

I was, like, “Go!” And she was, like…

(BLOWS RASPBERRY) She only wanted to help.

I don’t care what you think of me, but if you’re too stubborn to…

(GASPS SOFTLY)

Brunito.

I feel like I missed something important.

Come on.

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)

What… What’s happening? Where are we going?

(EXHALES) Home.

(GRUNTS)

It’s her! I found her!

I found her!

She’s back! She’s back, she’s back!

JULIETA:
Mirabel!

Mirabel!

Mamá.

Mi amor, I was so worried.

We couldn’t find you.

There were bees everywhere.

I’ll be okay.

Uh… Not if we don’t have a house.

What? We don’t have a house.

I can’t say we don’t have a house?

What is that? Not a house.

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)

Look at this home We need a new foundation

It may seem hopeless But we’ll get by just fine

Look at this family A glowing constellation

So full of stars And everybody wants to shine

But the stars don’t shine They burn

And the constellations shift

I think it’s time you learn

You’re more Than just your Gift

And I’m sorry I held on too tight

Just so afraid I’d lose you too

The miracle is not Some magic that you’ve got

(GASPS)

The miracle is you

Not some Gift Just you

The miracle is you

All of you All of you

Okay so We gonna talk about Bruno?

That’s Bruno?

Yeah There’s a lot to say

About Bruno

I’ll start, okay

Pepa, I’m sorry About your wedding

Didn’t mean to be upsetting

That wasn’t a prophecy

I could just see You were sweating

And I wanted you to know That your bro loves you so

Let it in, let it out Let it rain, let it snow

Let it go

That’s what I’m always saying, bro

I got a lot of apologies I got to say

Hey, we’re just happy that you’re here, okay?

Come into the light

That trip was only a night

And no matter what happens We’re gonna find our way

Yo, I knew he never left I heard him every day

(CHORUS VOCALIZING)

(CREAKING)

What’s that sound?

I think it’s everyone in town

ALL:
Hey

Lay down your load Lay down your load

Roll me down the road Roll me down the road

We have no Gifts But we are many

And we’ll do anything for you

It’s a dream When we work as a team

You’re so strong

Yeah, but sometimes I cry

BOTH:
So do I

I may not be as strong But I’m getting wiser

Yeah, I need sunlight And fertilizer

Come on Let’s plant something new

And watch it fly

Straight up to the sky

Let’s go

The stars don’t shine They burn

The constellations glow

The seasons change in turn

Would you watch Our little girl go

She takes after you

(SIGHS)

Hey, Mariano Why so blue?

I just have So much love inside

You know I’ve got this cousin too

Have you met Dolores?
