Lesson 4: Describing a Circus Performer

Lucy the Seal
Bright blue eyed Lucy stops at nothing to be in the show at Ricky’s club! When the opportunity comes, the curly red-head appears on stage as a musical professor wearing a sooty, ripped suit and tie, and a dirty white shirt. Startled and screaming, the clown grabs her round black hat and jumps backwards as she spots the many horns lined across the crazy, knee-high rolling cart instrument she must play to be in the band. With a determined face, the professor hunches forward as she sways towards the ”saxovibatronophonavich” with legs far apart, falls to her knees, and flexes her sleeve-covered hands outward like the flippers of a seal! She successfully blows a tune on the horns and is praised with an invisible fish which she catches in her mouth. The crowd cheers noisily as Lucy hobbles off stage, lured away by the silver, rubber trout in Ricky’s hand.
