Summary:

Various acts in a show put on by barn animals. A drunk dog gets thrown out for heckling, and plots revenge by sabotaging the last act.

That’s Not All, Folks:

This cartoon was later used in the television special “Bugs vs. Daffy: Battle of the Music Video Stars”, where Bugs reveals that the names of the female rabbit trio singing the title song are Fanny, Flo, and Esmeralda.

What I Like About This One:

The maestro of the first act emerging from a piano.

The shot of a xylophone being played by mice dancing on it.

A snoring audience member being awoken by three cymbal crashes.

The orchestra doing an encore while the applause is still going, much to the maestro’s annoyance.

The “boos” that come from the drunk dog.

The guy who takes tickets immediately seeing through the dog’s “I’m one of the Jones boys” attempt to regain entrance.

The entire ending where the dog is discovered when he accidentally falls on to the stage. The angry audience pelts him with raw vegetables. He rises up to say, “Is everybody happy?” and receives another pelt as the curtain drops and says “The End” on it. To top it off, the dog appears on the end title to say “That’s all folks!” and is hit one final time!
