Audition

Larry Lee Skinner is a four-year-old who conducts an orchestra and also plays a really cool cornet. A six-year-old girl can spell difficult words both forwards and backwards. A fourteen-year-old boy has a hobby of collecting unusual bets. A ten-year-old girl plays piano while wearing a blindfold and wool mittens, and at the same time she tap-dances and sings. A two-and-a-half-year-old boy is a real smarty-pants who can do math, answer questions about history, geography, and spelling, and name the capitals of countries that people call out from the audience. He also plays piano and sings! A sixteen-year-old high school student has been saving up tinfoil for five years so he can get a seeing-eye dog. The show ends with a children's opera group made up of kids between four and twelve years old.
