excerpt from Mungojerrie & Rumpleteazer by T.S. Elliot
Mungojerrie and Rumpelteazer have a wonderful way of working together And some of the time you would say it was luck And some of the time you would say it was weather We go through the house like a hurricane And no sober person could take his oath Was it Mungojerrie or Rumpelteazer? Or could you have sworn that it mightn’t be both?
Then family will say: “Now which was which cat? It was Mungojerrie and Rumpelteazer!” And there’s nothing at all to be done about that!
For all students who audition and are accepted into the Summer StudioWorks program, but do NOT receive a bursary, a discounted rate will be offered ($250.00) which will cover the entire program.
