Rock of Ages Teen Edition: Hilda Klinemann Lines

These are the lines for the anatagonist in the teen edition of Rock of Ages written by Chris D'Arienzo. The previous line is the Term and Hilda's line that follows is the definitions. Does not include songs. Reminder to do a German accent.

Hilda? Oh yes!! Send her in! - Mayor

Herr Mayor! Thank you so much for meeting me!

The pleasure is mine, Mrs. Klinemann. - Mayor

You know my son, Franz

Such a pleasure to be here in you lovely— - Franz

Enough! You’re boring him!

Sei beitte micht wutend auf mich - Franz

Folgen zie meinen befelen!

Okay - Franz :(

Herr Mayor, let’s cut to the chase, shall we? I have a proposal. But first, may I be frank with you?

Please! - Mayor

De fact is, Herr Mayor, the “sex, drugs, and rock ‘n’ rock” element here is destroying your city.

Personally, I love rock. I once followed The Dead for seven months… until I realized I was violently allergic to patchouli oil and overwrought and meandering guitar solos. - Anita

(beat) And you are?

(This is my new city planner down from Berkeley, Miss— (Mayor))

Anita Bath. - Anita

I should say you do—-

Do what? - Anita

Need a bath. Herr Mayor, what Klinehaus Inc. is requesting is nothing more than the privilege of bringing your city into the next century. A European model of clean, pure, efficient living. Behold!

That’s the entire Strip from Doheny to La Cienega? - Anita

It is. And doesn’t it deserve better? Don’t you both deserve better? Consider this a gift. From me, to you.

Clean, efficient living? - Mayor

Exactly!

Mayor, you’re not thinking clearly! - Anita

(Part of song) Mayor, take the money and… WE’LL RID THIS CITYsxdrd

TOO MUCH TIME ON MY HANDS
TOO MUCH TIME ON MY HANDS

TOO MUCH TIME ON—- (all)

Shall I call the bulldozers?

Look, I told you I’m not sellin’ so just forget it! - Dennis

It’s your choice Mr. Dupree. You can certainly wait for the city to push you out and pay next to nothing for the pleasure.

(The Bourbon is an institution. They can’t— (Dennnis))

“Eminent domain,” Mr. Dupree. Ah, my tongue feels like Easter morning when I say it. - Franz

I’ll come by tomorrow for your answer, Mr. Dupree. Think it over carefully. Come Franz!

You have a sadness inside of you. But it is a handsome sad… like Falco. - Franz

Franz!

(Come here to destroy some culture, fascist!? (Anita))

You have us all wrong, Ms. Bath - Franz

Don’t bother! She hasn’t the vision to see we are only making her city better. (holds up plans) Look! A Foot Locker athletic store!!

WE’RE NOT GONNA TAKE IT

NO, WE AIN’T GONNA TAKE IT!

(NO) WE’RE NOT GONNA TAKE IT ANYMORE!! (Anita, protesters)

We’ll just see about that!! Come, Franz.

Yeah!!! - Drew (end of song? DREW throws the garbage bag back to LONNY, then shakes a deal with JA’KEITH. Meanwhile. HILDA finds DENNIS).

Ahhhhhh. Mr. Dupree?

Oh great. What do you want? - Dennis

You Mayor has granted me authority to seize this property… For the good of the city.

Seize my property? You can’t do that! - Dennis

I’m sorry, Mr. Dupree. But this is already happening. If I were you I would just try to enjoy the night. It’s a fabulous farewell.

Just get out of here! - Dennis

Have your moment. Be the though guy. In a few days this will all be mine. You’ll see! Come, Franz!

(Don’t do this. (Anita))

I… - Franz

FRANZ! COME

(The Final Countdown begins)

Bring in the back hoe! All of it… I want it gone!!! Glorious!!

Mama, I didn’t realize we were doing so much demolition. - Franz

Isn’t it beautiful? (to crew) Back to work!

Take back your city! - Anita

What is that?

I’M SURE THAT WE”D ALL MISS HER SO! - Dennis and Lonny

Get me the police!!!

IT”S THE FINAL COUNTDOWN! - Singers, not Hilda (note which one it is in the song)

I want them out of her here now!

Still singing (You know this is wrong! - Anita)

It’s not me! - Franz

There they are!!

(I used to run a confectionery shop in Hamburg? Homemade candies, chocolates… - Franz)

Why aren’t you there, Franz? - Anita

(offstage), Franz, wozum teufel bist du geganen?

(Some think the key to a chocolate is the cocoa, but it’s actually the butter. - Franz)

That’s incredible, Franz. - Anita

Franz!! They’re still out there!

The police say they have “freedom of assembly” so… Mama, why don’t we just keep it the way it was. The public wants it and— - Franz

Because the way it was was bad! Just like my ungrateful excuse for a son! This is beautiful! Now get rid of them or I get rid of you!

Nein - Franz

VAT?

I don’t want to - Franz

(about to backhand Franz) Get your butt—-!

(Hit me with you best shot begins)

All I’ve ever done was try to please you. But y’know what? No more! - Franz

What? Your going to go back to Germany to your stupid little candy shop?

YOU DON’T FIGHT FAIR - Anita

THAT”S OKAY, LET’S SEE IF I CARE! (singing)

I’m with them, Mama - Franz

Don’t call me Mama. The wrecking ball comes to the Bourdon Room tomorrow. With or without you sitting here!

Alright, L.A.!! This is my final stand!! This is for those of you who care about this city! For those of you who don’t have a voice… And for those who have absolutely no interest in setting themselves on fire!

Fraulein Anita?

Wh… Mrs. Klinemann?! What are you doing here?

(whipping tears) Vat are you doing?

Taking a stand! Not that you know anything about that!

You know you turned my son against me.

You sure that was me?

(sad) You’re right. I have no son.

Listen, you do have a son, okay? And he loves you. He must has a dream. Like all those people out there! If you could only see how happy it makes him, you wouldn’t…

He doesn’t understand! I did it all for him. For his future.

But he doesn’t want it! I know you must have had a dream nobody understood. - Anita

No!

Wait… Well, when I was a little girl, I wanted to make formal wear for pets

You… really? - Anita

My father thought U was a fool! Maybe I was

Or maybe you weren’t - Anita

Were you really going to set yourself on fire?

I believe in my cause - Anita

But vat will that accomplish? It’s crazy!

Is it? - Anita

Yes.

Fine!

It’s still not too late to make it right, Mrs. Klinemann - Anita

AND I”M GONNA KEEP ON LOVING YOU
CUZ IT”S THE ONLY THING I WANNA DO…

hard sigh

Hello, Mr. Dupree please…

I didn’t call you - Franz

I called you

Mama? Anita? - Franz

I believe this belongs to you

What do you mean? - Dennis

My son was right. A dream is just as important as a brand new Foot Locker athletic store.

(You did it! (Franz to Anita))

No, you did. - Anita

And as for you!! (to Franz)

I was hoping I was hoping you might take on a silent investor in your confectionery story

My candy shop. Thank you, Mama. - Franz

I believe we may need a place to hold a bon voyage party?

LAST LINE (working hard to get my fill everybody wants a thrill - Lonny)

PAYIN ANYTHING TO ROLL THE DICE JUST ONE MORE TIME
