BEOWULF :By Preston Walker CAST:HrothgarBeowulfGrendel Grendal’s Mother The Dragon Beowulfs Men

The Monster Herot is the Dane’s ancient mom and pop’s coffee house. Every morning before pillaging another European town they would java up before donning their horned helmets. But this morning “a murderous creature who poses a great danger to the people…” stood ready to open a Starbucks to put them out of business!

Enter Beowulf Beowulf … hears about this and decides to “purge all evil from this hall”. He goes to Hrothgar… and promises to slay the monster.

Round One…FIGHT! Beowulf waits with his men inside the coffee shop for the evil capitalist to return for another raid of java. Grendel, “seeing the hall full of sleeping warriors” crept slowly through the place and inhaled all of the coffee…and goes a little crazy… Beowulf waits with his men inside the coffee shop for the evil capitalist to return for another raid of java. Grendel, “seeing the hall full of sleeping warriors” crept slowly through the place and inhaled all of the coffee…and goes a little crazy… Beowulf, waking up from the loud noises in the coffee Beowulf, waking up from the loud noises in the coffee house bathroom, grabs his legendary sword and smacks Grendel upside the head.

VICTORY! “Beowulf, a prince of the Geats, had killed Grendel”. “Beowulf, a prince of the Geats, had killed Grendel”. To reward Beowulf, Hrothgar grants Beowulf his own royal documenter, to record the story of Beowulf’s life…who later flees to escape the drudgery of the boring epic to small Colorado town to do more interesting things… To reward Beowulf, Hrothgar grants Beowulf his own royal documenter, to record the story of Beowulf’s life…who later flees to escape the drudgery of the boring epic to small Colorado town to do more interesting things…

Yo Mamma! Uh oh! Has Beowulf bit off more than he could chew! Now he has to deal with Grendel’s mom! Uh oh! Has Beowulf bit off more than he could chew! Now he has to deal with Grendel’s mom! Beowulf dove into the lake which she lived, “For hours he sank through the waves; at last he saw the mud at the bottom”.

Coincidence? Beowulfs trusty weapon could do nothing against Grendel’s mother. Does he give up? I wish….but NO! All he does is look around and ‘coincidentally’ there lies a “heavy sword. Forged by giants, strong and blessed with their magic.” Beowulfs trusty weapon could do nothing against Grendel’s mother. Does he give up? I wish….but NO! All he does is look around and ‘coincidentally’ there lies a “heavy sword. Forged by giants, strong and blessed with their magic.”

Long live the King “After being honored by Hrothgar, Beowulf and his fellow Geats return home” and becomes King of the Geats. But even today King Beowulf is still known best for… his art school! The Geats put away their armor and swords and muster their paints….this masterpiece is of the King Beowulf!

Dragon his arse back to battle “Beowulf rules Geatland for fifty years. Then a dragon menaces his kingdom”. “Beowulf rules Geatland for fifty years. Then a dragon menaces his kingdom”. The beast kept making fun of the Geat’s art….and that REALLY got the old King mad. He set out to slay the beast with his legendary paint brush.

He was so embarrassed, he fled Geatland, never to return for another thousand years or so…where he made the SAME MISTAKE! THE END
