Transcript: Crat-O-Mime
(Happy music)
Cars travel on the streets of a large colourful city. A family leaves a red brick condo. A family enters a pizza shop. Another family stands outside a large yellow house. A fourth family meets in front of a yellow trailer just outside the city. The kids from the four families climb a hill in a park.

A mime wearing a black beret is pictured on a black and white banner. Cris and Crat enter a festival.
Crat shouts,
WELCOME TO THE
MEGA MADE-UP, IMAGINED,
MAKE-BELIEVE,
ENTERTAINMENT FESTIVAL!
Cris asks, WHAT NOW?
Crat repeat,
THE MEGA MIME FESTIVAL.
OH, HERE'S A MIME RIGHT NOW.
A mime wearing a striped shirt and red suspenders appears to be trapped in an invisible box.
Crat says,
YOU’VE GOTTA GUESS WHAT SHE'S DOING.
Cris looks deep in thought.
He responds, HMM...
The mime pushes up on an invisible ceiling.
Cris asks,
ARE YOU... STUCK...
INSIDE A BOX?
(Silence)
The mime smiles as she nods.
Cris says,
OH! I GET IT!
MIMES ACT
WITHOUT USING WORDS OR OBJECTS.
Crat responds,
WHOOHOO!
YOU HIT THE NAIL ON THE HEAD!
The mime makes a hammering motion. She hits her thumb with the hammer. The mime puts her thumb in her mouth and walks away from Cris and Crat.
Cris adds,
SO, WHAT'S THE FIRST THING WE SHOULD
DO AT THE MEGA MIME FESTIVAL?
Crat responds, HMM...
(Small gasp)
Crat adds,
HOW ABOUT THE MIME OPERA?
Cris and Crat sit with an audience. They watch as the mime walks onto a stage. She presents a red-haired woman in a black and white dress.
The woman says,
WELCOME!
WELCOME TO THE MIME OPERA -
A SILENT STAGE SHOW
WITH GRAND GESTURES
AND EVEN SILLIER FACES.
Another mime walks onto the stage. He zips his mouth shut. The mime gestures for the woman to be quiet. The woman looks in distress.
A dark-haired man wearing a very tall top hat sits in front of Crat.
Crat yells,
HEY! I CAN'T SEE THE STAGE!
Cris whispers to Crat
CRAT. KEEP IT DOWN.
(Groans)
Crat says to the man,
EXCUSE ME! HELLO?!
I CAN'T SEE A THING
PAST THIS GIANT TOP HAT!
A mime gestures for Crat to be quiet.
Cris whispers loudly at Crat,
CRAT! SIT DOWN!
YOU'RE MAKING A...
A KERFUFFLE.
Colourful creatures shout,
KERFUFFLE!
The Sprinkle Fairy drives past Cris and Crat in a pink and Gold double-decker bus.
Text reads, “Kerfuffle”
The sprinkle Fairy floats down.
She says,
KERFUFFLE MEANS
MAKING A BIG FUSS.
YOU KNOW, LIKE THE WAY CRAT
IS MAKING A BIG FUSS
BECAUSE HE CAN'T SEE THE STAGE.
Crat replies,
WELL, I WOULDN'T BE
MAKING A KERFUFFLE
IF THERE WASN'T A GIANT TOP HAT
BLOCKING MY VIEW!
The man with the top hat walks away from Crat and Cris.
(Applause)
Crat says,
WAIT...
The curtains close on the stage.
Crat adds,
THE SHOW'S ALREADY OVER?
BUT I DIDN'T EVEN GET TO SEE IT!
The Sparkle Fairy replies,
SOMEONE'S CRANKY.
OH, LOOK AT THE TIME.
I HAVE TO HELP A LITTLE GIRL
CHOOSE JUST THE RIGHT BED.
UGH, GOLDILOCKS IS SO PICKY.
TOODLES!
An orange creature and a blue creature play volleyball with a colourful ball. The blue creature hits the ball wildly and they both chase after it.
Cris and Crat stand on a golf course.
Crat states,
WATCHING MIMES PRETEND TO
PLAY GOLF IS WAY MORE EXCITING
THAN THE REAL THING.
A mime swings an invisible golf club and watches an invisible ball travel toward a hole. The man with the top hat stands in front of Crat again.
Crat shouts,
HEY! I CAN'T
SEE! AW! YOU'RE BLOCKING MY
VIEW AGAIN.
Cris responds,
YOU'RE MAKING
A KERFUFFLE AGAIN, CRAT.
Crat replies,
THAT'S IT!
I'M STANDING... SOMEWHERE ELSE.
Crat bumps into the mime golfer.
He says, AGH! SORRY!
The invisible ball lands in an inflatable pool.
(Splashing sound)
The mime looks angry. He stomps his foot.
Crat responds,
I DIDN'T MEAN TO!
I COULDN'T SEE!
THERE WAS THIS PERSON
- WITH A GIANT TOP HAT -
STANDING IN FRONT OF ME.
The man with the top hat is gone.
(Nervous laugh)
The mime points to the pool.
Crat says,
HMM... AH!
He pulls the invisible ball out of the water. The blue creature grabs the colourful ball from the bottom of the pool. A tiny shark fin appears. The blue creature drops the ball as they jump out of the pool. The orange creature stands up. It wears a shark fin around its waist. The orange creature holds up the ball.
The mime rips the invisible golf ball out of Crat’s hand. Crat approaches Cris.
Crat asks,
UM... THINK WE CAN STILL
GET SOMETHING TO EAT?
Cris replies,
ONLY IF YOU PROMISE TO STOP
MAKING A KERFUFFLE.
Text reads, “Kerfuffle”
Crat responds,
UH-HUM.
A mime serves desserts at a booth.
Crat says,
MMM! MANGO ON A STICK.
MY FAVORITE!
He looks around.
Crat adds,
AND NOT A GIANT TOP HAT
IN SIGHT!
The man with the top hat steps in front of Crat in line.
(Groans)
Cris says,
CRAT, REMEMBER WHAT
YOU PROMISED.
The mime sells out of mango on a stick.
(Crat gasps)
Crat says,
NO. NO! NOOO!
PLEASE DON'T TELL ME YOU'RE ALL
OUT OF MANGOES ON A STICK?!
The mime shrugs. He offers a pickle on a stick.
Cris responds,
YEAH. WHY DON'T YOU JUST GET
A PICKLE ON A STICK INSTEAD?
Crat replies,
BLEUGH! A PICKLE ON A STICK?!
A PICKLE?! ON A STICK?!
YOU CAN'T JUST PUT
ANY OLD FOOD ON A STICK!
A blue creature holding a pickle on a stick responds.
SURE YOU CAN.
(Groaning and moaning)
People stop and watch as Crat rushes around making odd movements.
(Gasp)
He lays on his back. People applaud. The man with the top hat rushes to Crat and shakes his hand. The man with the top hat gives a thumbs up.
Cris says,
CRAT! YOU JUST WON
THE FIRST PLACE AWARD
FOR BEST MIMING
AT THE MEGA MIME FESTIVAL!
Crat replies,
OH. BUT I WASN'T MIMING.
I WAS ACTUALLY VERY...
(Brightening)
Crat adds,
OOOHHH...
THANK YOU.
(Audience cheers and claps)
The blue creature drags the orange creature and the ball into a fruit display.
Crat is awarded a trophy on the stage.
He says, YEAH!
A mime uses an invisible camera to take a picture.
The headline in the Colossus Gazette reads, “Mime Festival”. Crat looks upset as the man in the top hat stands in front of him in the picture.
Text reads, “Produced in association with TVO Kids. A Canada - Ireland / Canada - Australia Co-production Between, Big Jump, Telegael, and Moody Street Kids”.
