WHERE HE GOES NOBODY KNOWS!

This is another lovely shouting routine for the children.

Effect

You start off with your back to the audience and they see there is nothing on your back.

THE MONKEY is in a Zoo and is put into a cage. He can be seen clearly through the bars. But every night he manages to escape. You place the cage behind your back and of course when you bring it to the front again he has gone!

But in the morning he is always back in his cage. Where he goes nobody knows! Again you place it behind your back and when it comes out surprise! He's back inside.

Here the children will soon let you know that funny business is going on behind your back and they will start to shout and ask you to turn it round...but you carry on and do it again and the monkey comes and goes at will. This you do many times until finally you turn the cage around BUT there is NOTHING on the other side!

"How does he escape" you ask. "Ok I will show you". Then you go "1-2-3" and the monkey visually disappears as you let the cage fall open to really show that he really has gone.

"BUT WHERE" as you turn around to put the cage away...THERE ON YOUR BACK IS THE MONKEY SURROUNDED BY BANANAS...BANANAS...BANANAS !!

SO THATS WHERE HE GOES!!
