I'm a Little Teapot

I’m A Little Tea Pot


[Actor walks center stage, stands there and pans across the auditorium with eyes]

[After 10-15 seconds, recording (or singing) of “I’m a Little Tea Pot comes on]

[As song plays, actor acts out words…

I’m a little tea pot, short [bend knees] and stout [put arms at hips and bend elbows out]

Here is my handle [flourish hand and put on hip with elbow protruding from side]

Here is my spout [bend arm up until forearm touches bicep, hold that next to side and stick hand out]

When I get all steamed up [begin to shake]

Here me shout [shake rapidly and open mouth as if shouting loudly]

Just tip me over and pour me out! [lean over in direction of spout]]

[Actor energetically skips off the stage]
