Christine
La La La La La La La
La La La La La La La
La La La La La La La
La...

(As she sings, Christine starts to set up her stand.
Then she opens the case she's brought. The crowd's curiously is growing; they movie in)

Town's Man
(to chirsitne)
What do you have there for us, Mademoiselle?

Christine
(take out a sheet of paper)
A new song. For sale!
Just published! All about Paris.

(everyone seems excited by this)

Town's Person
Ahhhhhh! Paris!

Town's Person
I'd love to hear it.

(Christine hands out sheet music. She continues to
Sing.)

Christine
Melody melody, melody melody,
Sung so melodiously.
Melody melody, my kind of melody,
Gentle and flowing a free.

Souring above every rooftop,
Whispering under each tree,
Melody melody, my melody de Paris.

One of the crowd
Let me see a copy of that.

Towns person
I'll have one, too

Christine
Paris is the rain,
Paris is the pain of a lover's goodbye,
It's the stare
When your eye meets a stranger,
Ever dangerous, Paris.

Town's People
Paris is a sun.

Christine
That's Right!
Paris, if there's one perfect place
I must be,
It can only be here in Paris!

(The handsome Count De Chandon, heir to the
Champagne fortune, enters with two beautiful
Women and a servant)

Town's People Ensemble
Melody melody melody melody
Sung so melodiously

Various Towns People
Looks! It's The Count De Chandon!/
The Count De Chandon!/
Bonjour, Monsieur le Count!

Ensemble
Melody melody
My kind of melody
Gentle and flowing a free

Christine
Souring above every rooftop,
Whispering under each tree.

Ensemble
Melody melody,
My melody de Paris.

(Some of the women in the crowd preen as the Count
passes through. Christine remains oblivious of the
Count's arrival.
The Count hears Christine singing; her voice and
beauty draw him towards her.
The Women he's with are not pleases by this.)

Both Women
(with annoyance, together)
Philippe!

(He waves to them to be patient. They throw up their
arms in typical French exasperation. They sulk
The Count approaches Christine. Though he pretends
He's interested in buying her music, it's clear that he
is interested in her.
By now, the news that the Count de Chandon is here has
spread, and people make way for him as he
approaches Christine.)

(He goes to the two ladies and they exit.
Christine, dazzled, stares after him, then at the card in
her hand)

Town's People
The Count de Chandon!

Another town's People
The champagne king!

Christine
(clutches the card to her bosom,
stares at eh Opera House)
Me, at the Paris Opera!

(she sings)

Paris is a fool.
Paris is a boulangerie.
On the square
It's the air over fields called "Elysian"
ah, Parisian air.

Paris is l'amour.
Paris if donsoule,
For their's one place for me,
It is only in a sea of Parie.

Christine & Town's People
Melody melody, melody melody.
Sung so melodiously.
Melody melody,
My kind of melody,
Gentle and flowing a free.
Souring above every rooftop,
Whispering under each tree.
Melody melody, my melody de pa....
Melody melody,
My me-lodie de pa-rie....

(All begins to exit except Christine, who turns and
stares towards the Oepra House)

De Paris...
De Paris...

(The music darkens. The lights fade. We hear two
voices; a women 's and a man's)
