Humorous Wedding Monologue
Sadie: It is a pleasure to meet with you today.
Queen: Thank you! I am very excited. Shall we begin the interview now?
Sadie: Yes, of course! Let’s start from when you started your walk to royalty.
Queen: I became a member of the court of Kamehameha IV as a young lady. When I grew older, I married John Owen Dominis.
Sadie: About your husband, I’ve heard he was not born into royalty. Is that true?
Queen: Yes, all rumors are true. He is only a son of a ship captain who had moved his family to Honolulu in 1837. It was not a typical marriage, but it worked out very well.
Sadie: Pardon me for interrupting again, but when did you actually begin to know that you were going to become queen one day?
Queen: Oh, yes! I completely forgot. …show more content…

Sadie: Okay, now back to your imprisonment.
Queen: Oh, yes, of course. I was forced to sign many documents and my jailers made me sign using “Liliuokalani Dominis” to humiliate myself in front of the whole world. On top of all the drama, I missed my family, especially my niece.
Sadie: What was special about your niece?
Queen: I designated my niece as my heir and I used to travel a lot with her. Our favorite trips were to Washington when we tried to convince Cleveland to restore Hawaiian monarchy. We were not successful, but we made the best of it.
Sadie: That is a lot of fun and I still can’t wrap my head around the treatment you must have gone through.
Queen: That is what many people say, but once I got used to it, so I was
