Lips Fox/Crow
Overview
The Fox and Crow have a band-act in a nightclub, but the Fox walks out on his partner when he gets the position of a symphony-orchestra conductor. The Fox becomes while his old partner is on skid row, cold and hungry. One night, the Crow appears backstage at the concert Hall and hands a magician's wand to the Fox as he goes onstage. Using the wand as a baton, everything that can go wrong goes wrong for the snooty maestro.

"Lips", the fox, conducts a successful jazz band until he gets an offer of $50,000 to go and conduct the symphony orchestra. Like the proverbial bat out of hell, he has gone - abandoning his friend the crow whilst he - now called "Foxini" - reaps the rewards of his new-found celebrity. It turns out that the crow is a rather loyal friend to his former bandmate, but that isn't reciprocated as stardom has clearly gone to his head! Things is, though, thanks to the well-intentioned crow, his baton has been swapped for a magician's wand so the performance, well it doesn't quite go to plan, and as we all know - fame is a fickle friend. The mixture of theatrical magic, music and a lively score make this quite a fun and quickly paced enterprise that doesn't labour it's clear message of reaping what you sow.
