In 1975 I really did appear in this. I was 11, had a swarthy fake tan, drawn on mustache, a head kerchief and my big star turn song line was "This little duckie was a naughty little duckie!".
It was mortifying.

So is your moment the one which is confined to a footnote on page 31?
Ha, YES! That's my musical theatre career... a footnote! The teacher obviously took this to heart, because there was a whole crowd of us. I don't remember the other animals, but I drew the short straw with the DUCKIE. I was a rather... sensitive... proto-homo of a child, and I still remember a few sniggers. The mortifying bit is on page 30.
I'm sure you were not only a naughty duckie, but a PRECIOUS one as well. A darling duckie. An ooziewoozie, tchoo-tchoo-tchooie, mummy's little duckums duckie. I feel your pain.
Ironically, right now, the right guy with the right swarthy tan, and the right drawn on mustache, singing, "this little duckie was a naughty little duckie!" could work equally well for porn.

I would wager your over-the-top performance ate the stage sets.
"...I HAD a DREAM, a DREAM about you, baby..."
Peener, precious wecious indeed.
MG, yes! I put the GYPSY! in Little Gypsy Gay. More Merman than even Ethel herself.

all the glitter and feathers...
I think the teacher was very *nsightful*. You have been a VERY naughty little duckie of late!!
