Reallywish, Justnow, I Can, and I Will. Boys of ten; Brownie costumes. (“I Will” should have the strongest voice.)
Sunshine Fairies. Girls of eight or nine; flowing hair, short fairy dress of bright orange-yellow, made still brighter by a liberal use of spangles. Wings.
Cosey Corner. Prettily draped and cushioned couch in one corner of rear of stage.
Sunshine Treasure-Box. First act, a box about the size of a small but deep trunk, labelled on the front in plain lettering, “Sunshine.”
Sunshine Treasure-Box. Second act, box of same shape, but very large; if possible, nearly four feet deep; with same label in same position on front, in letters of the same shape but larger. Have blocks of wood nailed inside for steps. The lid should be on hinges, and the whole back of the box, except at the very top, is sawed out, leaving it open. The curtain hangs at the rear of the stage, with a large opening immediately behind the box, so that Sunshine Fairies and others can easily pass into the box from behind the scenes. Foliage, rocks, and stumps for seats, and other playground accessories. Have a stump and a particularly soft rock against the outside of the box, to serve as steps.
Change of Costume. In the second act, near the close, Sir Dismal Dumps and the Bugaboo Man should change quickly while in or back of the Sunshine-Box, from their former costumes to suits of spangled orange-yellow cambric, made in similar style.
