IT’S POSSIBLE (PART 1)

JOJO This might be a pool Like I've read of in books Connected to one of those underground brooks! An underground river That starts here and flows Right under this bathtub! And then, who knows?

It's possible! Anything's possible!

(JOJO's imagination starts to expand.)

It might go along, Down where no one can see Right under state highway Two hundred and three! Right under the wagons! Right under the toes Of Mrs. Umbroso! Who's hanging out clothes!

It's possible! Anything's possible.

JOJO, CAT It's possible! Anything's possible!

JOJO This might be a river Now mightn't it be Connecting McElligot's Pool with the sea! Then maybe some fish might be swimming... Swimming toward me!

(We are suddenly underwater. Strange fish appear — all shapes and sizes, wildly-colored and wildly improbable.)

ALL Ah...! Oo-wee-ee-ee-ee-ooh!

It's possible

It's possible Ah...! Oo-wee-ee-ee-ee-ooh!

It's possible

It's possible Ah... .... ....!

JOJO ALL Oh, the sea is so full Ooh ... Wah-ooh ... Of a number of fish If a fellow is patient Ooh ... Wah-ooh ... He might get his wish! And that's why I think Ooh ... Wah-ooh ... That I'm not such a fool

ALL When I sit here and fish

JOJO In McElligot's pool! It's possible.

WOMEN It's possible

MEN It's possible

JOJO Anything's

ALL Possible

JOJO It's possible

WOMEN It's possible

MEN It's possible JOJO Anything's

ALL Possible

JOJO It's possible... Anything... Anything...

(Music fades out. JOJO's parents abruptly interrupt his fantasy, bearing mops.)

MR. MAYOR Jojo! The tub's overflowed on the floor! The water is running right under the door!

MRS. MAYOR The ceiling is peeling! You've flooded the den! Oh, JoJo, I think you've been thinking again!

MR. MAYOR I say this with firmness and terrible sorrow, Young man, we will deal with you come tomorrow!

(MR. and MRS. MAYOR exit.)

11 — IT’S POSSIBLE (PART 2)

JOJO I still think That I'm not such a fool When I sit here and fish In McElligot's pool!

CAT It's possible.

(The FISH magically re-appear.)

ALL Anything's possible!
