Lord: (Целуярукудевушке) I’m very happy to see you here.

( В это время двойняшки Билл и Мартин уже устроили возню, схватив по старинной шпаге и пытаясь фехтовать. Мистер Отис тут же отбирает у них реликвии и, надавав подзатыльников, представляет своих младших детей.)

Mr. Otis: And those are the twins. They are named Bill and Martin. Say hi to James.

Bill:Hi James, where is the fridge? I’m thirsty!

Mark: Hey, fanny hat you have there!

Lord: Sorry, I must go . This is Mrs. Umney. She is the housekeeper. (Кланяется,уходит)

Mr. Umney: (проводитэкскурсию) This is the door to the kitchen next to the fireplace.

This table here is 450 years old, mad from walnut.

Virdginia: Mother! Look at this, it looks like something was spilled on the rug here.

Mr. Otis: Oh dear, it looks like blood.

Mrs. Otis: How horrible! I don’t want blood on my floor!

Mrs. Umney: That is the blood of Lady Eleanore de Canterville. Her husband, sir Simon de Canterville, murdered her there in 1575. Sir Simon disappeared suddenly nine years later. No one ever found his body, but his ghost haunts this house.

Близнецыкричат: Ghost! Ghost! We will find him! We will catch him! (убегают)

Mrs. Otis: Be careful, boys!

Mrs. Umney: No one can clean the blood from the floor.

Washington:(со средством в руках) That’ssilly!I can clean it up right now with “Pinkerton’s Stain Remover”! Youwillsee!

(Выливает средство на пятно. Гремит гром, сверкает молния. Mrs.Umney не хорошо, падает в обморок).

Mr. Otis: What terrible weather they have in this country!

Virginia: Look at Mrs. Umney!

Mrs. Otis: My dear, what can we do with a woman who faints?

Mr. Otis: We can take money from her wages every time she faints!

Mrs. Umney: You must not make the ghost angry, sir. Terrible things happen in this house.

Mrs. Otis: Ghosts! Ha!

Mr. Otis: We don’t believe in ghosts!

Mrs. Otis: Now, if you excuse us, we are all very tired. Good night!

Mrs. Umney: Good night!

Сцена 3

Полумрак. Появляется приведение, начинает греметь цепями, громко смеяться и издавать страшные звуки. Гаснет свет, звуки завывающего ветра и раскаты грома. Вспышки молнии озаряют темноту.

Sir Simon: Who do this people think they are? They walk in here like they own the place, leave their staff all about, remove my bloodstain. And that’s just on the first day!

I’ve kept this bloodstain here for 300 years, 11 months and 15 days now, and I’m not about to let a few Americans ruin my reputation.

Yes, I must evict these people. I will send them scarring to find the next ship back to America.

(Смеется, снова гром и молния, гремит цепями).

Duke: (смущенно целует руку). Virginia…So beautiful name!

Mr. Otis: OK. Boy. Would you stay by us for a week? You will tell my wife all stories about this ghost. It seems me now that you say “Yes” (ухмылка)

Mr. Otis: Great idea, my darling! Stay in our home! That will be fine!

Duke: Oh, my Got! I can’t believe it. It’s like a dream. I’m so happy to be with …

Washington: Happy to be with …? With whom? It’s a secret?

(Герцогсмущенноопустилголову)

Bill:He is happy to be with Virginia.

Mrs. Otis: Bill. It’s not very polite!

Mr. Otis: What is your decision?

Duke: I stay. I’m not busy now. I have holidays.

Mr. Otis: Fine. And what do you like to do in your free time?

Duke: I like horse riding. And you Ms. Virginia? Do you like horse riding?

Virginia: Yes. I like it.

Duke: Would you ride with me?

Virginia:It will be fine.

Mr. Otis: Good idea, children, come with us!

(Все уходят, наступает ночь)

Сцена 5

(Отблески молнии, гром, выходит приведение и натыкается на чучело)

Sir Simon: A storm! Tonight is the night! It is time to frighten those stupid Americans! First, I must frighten that boy who keeps cleaning up the bloodstain! Aaaaagh!

(Видитприведение)

Who’s that? Two ghosts are better than one. We can frighten the family together.

(Подходит ближе и читает надпись)

It’s not very frightening at all. Oh! What does this say? “The Otis ghost. The only true ghost!”

These foolish Americans tricked me! How can I make them sorry for this?

(Бредетрасстроенный)

I have to appear in the hall at night. I have to make strange and terrible noises. It’smyjobandImustdoit.

(Появляются близнецы и стреляют из рогатки Boo!Boo!)

Ghost: AGH! Horrible children! (Пугается, убегает)

(Дети смеются SillyGhost!)

Сцена 6

(Выходит Виржиния. Видит грустное приведение. Подходит к нему.)

Virginia:Oh,ghost!You look sad! I’m so sorry for you. Don’t worry – my brothers are going back to school tomorrow. You must be good until them.

Ghost: How can I be good? It is my job to walk in the hall, to make a noise with my chains and to frighten people.

Virginia: Mrs. Umney told us that you killed your wife. Is that true?

Ghost: Yes, it is true. But it was a family problem, and it’s no one else’s business.

Virginia: It’s wrong to kill people.

Ghost: You don’t understand. My wife was a terrible woman. And her brothers starved me to death! That was unkind, even though I did kill her.

Virginia: They starved you to death? Oh, poor ghost! Are you hungry? I’ve got a sandwich in my bag.

Ghost: No, thank you. I never eat or sleep, but you are very kind. You are not like the rest of my rude, dishonest family. (плачет)

Virginia:Oh, don’t cry! Why are you sad?

Ghost: I haven’t slept for over 300 years, and I am so tired.

Virginia: Did you inscribe the verse etched in the library windowsill?

Ghost: Yes, I did.

Virginia: When a golden girl can win

Prayer from out the lips of sin

When the barren almond bears

Ghost: I know, I know.

Virginia: And a little child gives away its tears

Then shall all the house be still

And peace came to Canterville.

(В ту секунду, когда она произносит последнюю строку заклинания, на сцене появляется группа приведений, которые окружают Сэра Симона)

Voices:Go back, little Virginia! Go back!

Voices: Beware, little Virginia, beware! We may never see you again.

Ghost: Quick, quick, or it will be too late!

Voices: Turn back while you can!

Voices: Leave, now!

Ghost: Hurry! (УводитВиржинию)

(Гром. Молния. Завывания ветра. Гаснет свет.)

( Снова раскат, бьют часы. В Центре зала стоит Виржиния со шкатулкой в руках)

Сцена 7

(Вся семья в глубоком недоумении и беспокойстве выходит на сцену.)

Mrs. Otis: Virginia! Where were you? We were so worried!

Virginia: I was with sir Simon.

Washington: That ghost! Are you all right?

Virginia: I’m fine.

Mr. Otis: Sir Simon? Is he alive?

Virginia: He’s fine. He’s finally free now. He’s been forgiven.

Martin: Look! The bloodstain!

Washington: Remarkable! Is he dead?

Virginia: His sadness is over. Now he can sleep.

Duke: You are an angel!

(Входит лорд Кентервиль)

Lord:Well,well!The Canterville ghost is gone.

Mr. Otis: These jewels belong to your family. They are worth a lot of money, and you must take them.

Lord: No, no. These jewels are Virginia’s. Sir Simon wanted her to have them, and she must keep them.

Virginia: Thank you, Lord Canterville.

Duke: You can wear the jewels when we get married, Virginia. What do you say?

Virginia: Oh, Cecil! I’d love to!

Lord: So Virginia became the Duchess of Cheshire. The Duck and the Dushess loved each other very much, and they lived happily ever after at Canterville Chase.

(Все кланяются и уходят со сцены. Звучит торжественная музыка)
