The Perfidious Polly performs!
Music: Now That’s Circus Music
Part 1: Polly is in a giant jack-in-the-box. An assistant turns the crank and he pops out with confetti. He gets the crowds excited.
Part 2: Polly goes back in the box and comes out as Professor Enuff. (Remember to put his white wig and eyepatch in the box.) Whenever Professor Enuff’s back is turned, the eyepatch changes to a different eye. He denies the eyepatch moved, saying “I KNOW NUFFIN!”
Part 3: Polly does some simple magic tricks in character as Professor Enuff.
Part 4: Polly goes in the box and comes out as Mrs. Buxom. Remember to have a strawberry-blonde wig, fake bosom, and apron in the box.
Part 5: Polly does some juggling - two balls, three balls, two juggling pins, two toy guns, two toys guns, and one juggling pin
Part 6: Polly pretends to bake a whipped cream pie using the jack-in-the-box as an oven, but ends up getting the pie all over him.
Part 7: Polly tries to shoot himself with the gun he used while juggling, but all that comes out is a “bang” flag.
Part 8: Bow to the audience.
