Opening Night
It’s opening night at the Roxy Theatre and Cubby Bear is trying to get inside, he eventually manages this and sneaks a peek at the control room; working his way to the store room. Cubby pulls on a level which raises a platform that he happens to be standing on and finds himself on the conductor’s stand. Given a baton by one of the band members, Cubby starts to conduct the band while the audience settles down and the show begins.
