Encanto Script

Introduction by narrator. (Musa)

The Madrigals are an extraordinary family who lived in the mountains in a

charmed place called the Encanto. The magic of Encanto has blessed every
child in the family with a unique gift except Mirabel. It is a story of Alma
Madrigal and her family who are blessed with magic by a candle that Alma held
onto during their escape from armed conflict. Through this magic, they build a
town called Encanto where each of Alma’s children are born with special gifts.
Mirabel is the last child born and she seems to have no gift at all.
