Holiday With Light is a lively new musical show, presented by America's investor-owned electric utility companies. Reddy Kilowatt, a familiar trademark of many electric utility companies, is introduced at the onset of the show and takes Benjamin Franklin and the audience through a series of fanciful scenes depicting electricity's contribution toward making every day a holiday. The audience, comfortably seated on a giant revolving turntable, rides through seven show chambers and hears a selection of musical numbers.

Some of broadway's greatest names have combined their talents to make Holiday With Light a delightful musical entertainment. The musical score was composed by Lee Pockriss, composer of the Broadway hit Tavarich, and such popular songs as Catch a Falling Star, Johnny Angel, and Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny yellow Polka Dot Bikini. Sidney Brooks, who helped create three other New York World's Fair presentations, wrote the lyrics and script.

SCENE ONE:

INTRODUCTION

Reddy: LISTEN!	Stop fussing Ben, this won't hurt a bit. You can't go walking around the Fair looking like that!
Ben:	Reddy! Please!
Reddy:	Don't be stubborn, Ben.
Ben:	But I can't wear this.
Reddy:	Careful! You'll break it. Now quick. The curtain's opening!
Ben:	Wait! Don't leave me! Oh my goodness. Isn't this silly? Me, Ben Franklin, the man who flew a kite in a thunderstorm and proved that lightening was electricity, dressed like this. And all I wanted to do was go to the Fair and have a holiday. Oh my goodness. Isn't this silly? Me, Ben Franklin, the man who flew a kite in a thunderstorm and proved that lightening was electricity, dressed like this. And all I wanted to do was go to the Fair and have a holiday. Oh my goodness. Isn't this silly? Me, Ben Franklin, the man who flew a kite in a thunderstorm and proved that lightening was electricity, dressed like this. And all I wanted to do was go to the Fair and have a holiday.
Reddy:	But you're going to have a holiday Ben. In fact, seven of them.
Ben:	Seven holidays?
Reddy:	Sure! And while we're at it you're going to see some startling changes in electricity since you flew that kite in 1752. Well, for instance: each night you can see our Xenon Searchlights which produce over twelve billion candlepower. That's three times brighter than the surface of the sun!
Ben:	Are you sure of that figure?
Reddy:	Sure I'm sure. Why I know all about electricity. I'm Reddy Kilowatt.
Ben:	Any relation to James Watt?
Reddy:	A distant Uncle. But now, let's all hold on to our hats and let go of our imagination. Your Investor Owned Electric Companies who serve 80% of America's people, invite you all to come along with Ben Franklin and me on a "Holiday with Light!" But now, let's all hold on to our hats and let go of our imagination.

SCENE THREE:

A HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Ben: LISTEN!	Well thank goodness I had a strong tail-wind. Otherwise I would have been late for Reddy Kilowatts big New Year's party. But where is Reddy?
Reddy:	Here I am Ben. And holiday or not the Electric Companies have to keep these transmission lines in tip-top shape so people can get power and light when and where they need it. In other words Ben ...
Reddy:	Look around. There's power everywhere. Whether you're at home or at the Fair. Companies are inter-connected. Adding power to be directed. So's towns and cities grow, more electricity will flow! And you'll have light and power to spare. Whether you're at home or at the Fair. Look around. There's power everywhere.

Kilowatt Birds:	Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Reddy:	Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's right! And another thing that's right is that power means progress. Why we have an abundance of power. In fact, one-third of the world's power supply. And I could tell you even more, but I promised Ben I'd take him to a New Year's party. And you're invited too so come on along! That's right!

	Scene shifts to opposite side of the chamber.
Reddy:	Tell me Ben: What's the only thing in the world that's manufactured the moment you use it?
Ben:	A smile?
Reddy:	Guess again.
Ben:	A kiss?
Reddy:	Nope. It's electricity!
Ben:	Oh come on Reddy. Let's not mix business with pleasure! Where's the party?
Reddy:	Party? Why we're at a party. And having a wonderful time!
Reddy:	We're generating power every single hour to meet your every power need. Sending currents straight and true through the lines direct to you. So while you're celebrating we'll keep generating power-plus right here! every single hour to meet your every power need. Sending currents straight and true through the lines direct to you.

LABOR DAY

Radio Announcer: LISTEN!	... and that's the news except to say it's Labor Day again. So drive carefully and have a Happy Labor Day.
Ben:	Say Reddy, what's that "Labor Day" the man spoke about?
Reddy:	Well, it's a holiday. Everything shuts down and most people take off. Except for those who have to work like the Electric Companies; the trains and planes ...
Ben:	Planes?
Reddy:	Yes. Planes. They're machines that fly through the air.
Ben:	Wait until I tell the people in Philadelphia that one!
Reddy:	Ben, we've got other things you couldn't even begin to imagine: If you look around the nation we've atomic generation. We're as fast as super-sonics with our work in heat pneumonics. We have multiple activities in Super Conductivity. We're deep in the miasma of Cesium and plasma; Investigating phases of fuel cells and lasers.

Reddy:	Magneto - hydro - dynamics!
Ben:	My goodness! You told me about fuel cells, planes and atomic power. But now! Magneto-hydro-dynamics?
Reddy:	Sure. Electricity from a jet of very hot gasses. But look at what electric energy does: Over there:
Kilowatt Birds:	What turns the wheels and cooks our meals and heats our schools and makes the tools for industry? Electricity. cooks our meals and heats our schools and makes the tools for industry?

SCENE FIVE:

THANKSGIVING & MOTHER'S DAY

Ben: LISTEN!	Thanksgiving dinner down on the farm. I haven't seen farmer Smith yet. I suppose he's in the barn milking the cows. Hope he's got good candle light to work by.
Reddy:	Good old Ben Franklin. He sometimes thinks we're still living back in the 1700's. But for years now the farmer's life, the farmer's load, have been made lighter and brighter with electricity. What Ben doesn't know is this:
Reddy:	Everybody's livin' electrically...
Kilowatt Birds:	...down on the farm.
Reddy:	Life is really changin' spectacularly...
Kilowatt Birds:	...down on the farm.

SCENE SEVEN:

FOURTH OF JULY

Reddy: LISTEN!	Thank you very much, Your Honor. Your short talk on motherhood, brotherhood and the neighborhood will long be remembered. Not so much for what you said but that it took you only four hours to say it. But now it is my pleasure and privilege to introduce to you a man we all love and look up to. A man who, to a great degree, made the Fourth of July what it is: Ben Franklin! But now it is my pleasure and privilege to introduce to you a man we all love and look up to.

Ben:	What can you say about the Fourth of July that hasn't been said before? Leave it this way: It's a solemn day and a happy day. It's America's Birthday and a second Birthday for each of us. A great American spoke for all of us when he, George M. Cohen, wrote about this day: "I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy, Yankee Doodle Do-or-die. A real live nephew of my Uncle Sam born on the Fourth of July" And so "Happy Birthday" USA! And many, many more! A great American spoke for all of us when he, George M.

	The chamber explodes in a "fireworks display" that lasts for several minutes before The Kilowatt Birds sing the "Holiday with Light!" theme song as the audience "rotates" into the next chamber:
Kilowatt Birds:	Holiday. We're on a Happy Holiday. Light and Power all the way, you've got to shout hurray! Hurray! Today. Tonight. We're on a holiday. A happy holiday. We're on a Holiday with Light!

SCENE EIGHT:

CHRISTMAS & FINALE

	"Holiday with Light!" theme song from the previous chamber fades into a chimes version of "Deck the Halls" which plays under this scene until the finale.
Ben: LISTEN!	I've enjoyed this "Holiday with Light" so much I think I'll take another swing around the building.
Reddy:	Well, watch out for the kids in that Santa Claus outfit.
Ben:	Don't worry, and thanks for inviting me, Reddy.
