The Bel Air Kindergarten of the Arts
Some parents will do anything to get in!
The Bel Air Kindergarten of the Arts is run by a Ms. Fanny Hardbottom. Fanny, majored in the performing arts and even starred for a short time in a one woman show playing Off Broadway . Actually that story isn't entirely accurate. Ms. Hardbottom performed a one man show on the corner of Broadway and 42nd Street for almost twenty minutes before a cop threatened to bring her in for loitering. Anyway, since then she has been managing this extraordinary kindergarten for gifted children whose parents are able to afford the $5000 a month fee and provide ample references (legal documents ascertaining the kid’s relation to at least two former mega stars or a Xerox of a recent bank account overflowing with zeros. Before final acceptance of a candidate for the kindergarten the child and his/her parents must first pass the audition phase which each year is based on a musical. This year the B.A.K. did Chorus Line.

I really need to go.
I'm diaperless, you know.
I can't hold on. OH NO!.
[Group of Kids]
God, I really blew it!
I really blew it!
How could I do a thing like that?

How could you do a thing like...
[ALL]
Now I'll never make it!
I'll never make it!
I made a puddle on the floor.
My Mum is running for the door
Does this mean I won't come here for...
[Henry Corey Jackson III (aged 3]
GOD, I think I've got in.
I think I've got in.
I knew she liked me none the less
Dad's giving her more money.
[Parent3]
In years we'll think of this as funny.
[Kids]
We've come this far, but tell me why
My parents continue to lie
About the fact that I am dry.
[Henry Corey Jackson III (aged 3]
I need to go again.
[A FEW VOICES]
We hope she won't complain
[ALL]
Oh here we go again.
