Python as a game scripting language

Hey guys, I was wondering about the following situation: given I have a small rpg engine written in python, which essentially loads tile maps, characters and dialogue, along with some basic menus, and has a basic gameloop, assuming I needed to script things like cutscenes or parts of dialogue, would...
