[chuckles]
-[ding-a-ling] -A customer!
That's it!
Eleanor! And Mycroft! How can I help you?
Could you clean our outfits?
We do work up a sweat under the bright stage lights!
Of course.
Ooohhhh, I love going to the theatre!
Ah, yes! The thrill of The Stage!
When those big curtains open, actors like us can be
different people!
We make stories come alive!
And the most wonderful thing of all
is hearing the audience cheering and clapping! [cheering] [a
Wow!
Well, we'd better get your outfits cleaned.
[triumphant fanfare]
-Farewell! -Mwah! Farewell one and all!
We'll take this to Suds, Mum!
Oh! And what do you have for me today, my little bubbly buddies?
They're actors' outfits, Suds.
That explains the make-up!
[laughing] Well, I won't make too much of a performance
about getting them clean! [laughter]
[laughter]
Suds, do you have any actors' outfits we can wear?
Theatre Actors' outfits? Uhm, let me see!
[theme music]
-Wow! -Look at you!
-[laughter] -No, look at you!
Yooo hoooo! Auditions this way!
Ouf!
You are here to try out for my new play,
Jack and the Beanstalk!
I've written a new version especially for...
Moi! But we need to find the rest of our cast!
Ahem, we're cutting it a bit fine till curtain up...
but that's show-business!
Now, I'm looking for an old man, Jack's mother and a cow.
They sound like the parts for us!
Splendid!
Your audition piece is What a fine looking cow!
Yours is, Did you really sell our cow for a handful of beans?
And your line is Moo!
-Got that? -[all] I think so.
Okay and... Do!
What a fine looking cow!
Did you really sell... Um...
Our cow!
-Our cow. Um... -[whispering] For a handful of beans?
For a bean full of hands?
Moooo!
[mumbling] The show starts soon... So... Erh...
-Okay, you're hired! -[all] Yes!
There's just enough time for you to learn your lines!
As they say in the theatre, the show must go on!
[laughter]
This is Leonard, my assistant stage manager.
He can transform the stage into anything.
Like a ship!
-Leonard, ship! -Right!
[happy music]
[all] Oh!
Or the surface of the Moon!
[happy music]
[all] Oooooooh!
Uuuhh, indeed. Now then! Rehearsals!
Aha...!
Um, what was the next bit, again?
For a handful of beans!
Oh yeah, hehe.
Ah! It's time for curtain-up!
[whispering] They don't know their lines!
Go out there and give the audience
the best show they've ever seen!
[all] Yes!
[Both] Oh.
Oh, oh...
-I can't remember what to say. -[whispering] Me neither.
Jack! You must...
Sell... Our cow!
[whispering] You are the cow, Lofty!
Lark was supposed to say that!
Was I? Oops!
Very well, mother! Come along, cow!
Let's get you to market!
- Moo Lofty, Mooo! -Oh!
I thought I was the cow!
Hello!
-Errr... -Yes?
Do you have something else to say, old man?
What a fine-looking cow!
Oooh, hehe, thanks!
[tapping]
What a fine-looking cow!
What will you give me in return for my cow, old man?
These magic beans, oh!
Aah...
[coughs]
Acting's hard!
These udders are heavy.
Your line, Lark! Did you really sell...
Did you really sell our beans for a handful of cow?
These are magic beans, mother!
-[whispering] Now what? -[cry of despair]
Now we'll have a short interval. Enjoy an ice cream! A drink!
Some delicious popcorn!
Everything's going wrong!
We're losing the audience!
Phew! At least it's over now.
No, there's still Part Two to go!
Part Two?
I don't think I can go out there again.
But what about the audience?
They've only heard half the story!
Oh, I just don't know, Lofty.
But we can't let everyone down.
You're right. We can't stop acting now.
As they say in the theatre...
[all] The show must go on!
But what if we forget what to say again?
Easy! You improvise!
Impro-what?
Make it up as you go along!
Welcome back, everyone,
to Jack and the Beanstalk Part Two!
Remember, Lofty! Improvise!
Okay. Ahem.
Hello! I'm Buttercup the Cow
and I'm going to climb Jack's beanstalk to... the Moon!
The Moon, Leonard, the Moon!
[robotic voice] Hello, Space-cow!
Welcome to the Moon.
I am a robot.
[laughter]
And who is this?
Arr, I be a naughty pirate, me hearty!
Pirate ship, Leonard!
And this be my naughty pirate
tractor!
Buck-buck-bwaaark!
[laughter]
The audience! We're getting them back!
Legend has it that if this chicken
should ever eat magic beans
she'll turn into...
MEGA CHICKEN!
-Bwark! Bwark! -Good chicken, good chicken.
[applauses] [laughter]
[robot voice] Well done, Mega Chicken and Buttercup!
We beat that naughty pirate in that surfing competition!
And now she's got a long walk back from the Moon!
Argh...
[cheering] [applauses]
[happy music]
The audience loves us!
Bravo! Best show ever!
What a night! What a show!
What talented actors!
Your performance was truly magical!
[all] Yes!
[giggles]
[giggle] So, did you have a dramatic time up there in the stage light
Oh, Suds! It was brilliant!
We all got parts in Jack and the Beanstalk...
But we forgot what to say.
So we made it up. And the audience loved it!
When I grow up, I think it would be amazing to be a...
[all] Theatre Actor!
