Hello. This is just a very quick note to say
that this show is available on YouTube. There's
a full 4K video recording of this show. It looks
incredible. The Accidental Theatre did a fantastic,
fantastic job recording it and streaming it.
You can listen to it here, but I would highly
recommend watching it in all its glory on YouTube.
If you just type in Back to Dumbraken live show,
it'll come up. Or you can look in the show notes
and there'll be a link to it there. Thank you
very much and enjoy. Please give it up for the
100 people who were on in the first half, please.
And are you ready for something a little bit
different? We are going to do a fully improvised
musical right now. And for that we have... We
have two fantastic musicians. We have Eddie Goodwin
on the piano. And we have Luke Barnard on the
violin. So everything they do will be made up
on the spot. Everything we do will be made up
on the spot. But we also need a cast. So can
you please welcome to the stage the cast of Dumbrag
and the Improvised Musical! you'd like to see
set in Dumbraken? In the Heights. The name of
a musical that has never happened. The Mayor's
Jamboree. The Mayor's Jamboree is good. Coco
kills again. I do like the Mayor's Jamboree.
We did an episode on his birthday. I don't know
what the Jamboree will be, but that's very exciting.
So the Mayor's Jamboree. We were going to ask
for an event as well, but I think we've got all
in one. So this is the Mayor's Jamboree. We stole
plenty of them from the animals in the zoo Have
you ever seen this man? the finest cut glory
Oh, when I see the mayor's face I know that I'll
have made my place to smile just like a child's
We're on the town. God damn it! But he liked
the jam. I bought a jamboree. Of course, so long
as some... If you have a job, I have a job. I
know, but... You make the best forks. Thank you.
Tasting forks. Thank you. Was that an insult?
An insult? No, no, no, no. You need tasting forks
if you're going to taste special jam. If you're
going to taste... I was going to say any jam,
but... I don't know. It's better for the finer
things. I'm just worried that this batch won't
be good enough for him. You know, he has such
strong opinions on jam and other things, but
one of them up there is jam. Well, look, we've
gotten through... What? 300 tasting forks now,
and the last three didn't have metal afterwards.
They didn't leave it in your mouth. Yeah, I know.
It didn't break away like the other ones. You
know, my iron in my body... Yeah, it's shot up,
but it's worth it. I appreciate you taking on
the task of eating it every time, but... You
know, I'm willing to do that too sometimes, but
I get that you're the boss and it's your decisions.
Oh, no. If it's what the mayor is going to experience,
I wouldn't just spit out metal. I would swallow
it just to know exactly how it feels. Yeah, I
would die for him. I saw his visage once in the
puddle and then I stepped it in and lost the
visage I lost him for a moment I lost my soul
I missed my chance to be whole I don't know what
I'd do if I didn't have him as mayor as mayor
I don't know The mayor, he was there when I first
tasted jam. It was a special experience, I was
fine. But right then, I became unbanned. Every
time I taste something of jam. I can see him
every day! I don't know! The luck, the luck will
say it all once he tastes the gem. I don't know
You should be. We play state fairs, quinceañeras.
Uh, bar mitzvahs. Bachelor parties, bachelorette
parties. Girl bachelor parties. Yeah. We do it
all. Oh, we do Christmas. Yeah. One time we did
it on Christmas. Oh it's an audition! to us.
You know what? Sometimes if we just show you
what we do, you'll spread the word around town
and it'll catch on like hotcakes. Yeah, yeah,
absolutely. But real quick, we'll pick it up
a pace because what we do is real. Are you a
jamboree? Oh, God, you booked such a good...
Oh, my God, I'm so... Sharif, thank you. I just,
I feel so celebrated. requesting some crocodiles
and I know that you have... All the money. They
can have all the money. Everybody. It's just
that they have been looking for some crocodiles
and I know that you have your own personal collection,
you know, under the trap door for the bad people.
For my all times. Yeah! time. My time's when
I go down to the crocodiles and I go, oh! So
it's just obviously that the town doesn't know
about the crocodiles but these No, the town doesn't
know about the crocodiles. But these very handsome
gentlemen who dance in squares were hoping that
maybe you'd bring the crocodiles out. No. I couldn't
possibly bring the crocodiles out. At least the
town would know it. Mr. Mayor, I'm sorry. I know
I haven't booked an appointment. Well, here he
is. Jimmy. I just wanted to say I don't approve.
I don't approve of how much money is being spent
on this channel. Mr. Mayor, there's someone in
the office! I'm so sorry Mayor Anders! I'm so
sorry! He snucked past me! You let Dumbrag in
time, Chief Journalist, into my mayoral office,
wiring my all the time! I didn't! I didn't let
him! He snucked it! I'm telling you, he snucked
it! I've lost right past him. What kind of people
do you employ, Mr Mayor? The really good ones!
No! Figaro is not good. Figaro, Figaro, somebody's
in front! It's just me and Figaro. Do you want
a nap? I know you've been overworked by the mayor.
No, I'm not. There's two people doing my job.
Doesn't mean you're not overworked, Figaro. We
spend our money very well. I have two people
doing one job. I have crocodiles. Everything's
under order. Crocodiles? Oh, but maybe you could
put the money into better places. I mean, this
is just rickety. Rickety boards in here. It's
shoddy. It's shoddy stuff, all right. I've got
to go back to the desk and make sure no one else
got in. Yeah, yeah. Clement, I'm coming! I would
hate if anybody else was to come in here during
my odd time. Okay, I'll try and stop them, but
if they snuck, I can't do nothing. Wonderful,
wonderful. Clement, I'm coming again! Jimmy,
you're ruining my jamboree. You're ruining the
town by having this jamboree. You're spending
too much money on it. The books that the kids
read from, they're from the 18th century. But
the jam is so good. Oh, excuse me. Hello. The
door's actually open. I'm just a friend. Figaro!
Figaro! Are you the man? No, yeah, I am. Lovely
to meet you. I'm Jimmy's cousin, right? So, I
just had a question, right? Because I just came
to look at your local suits, right? And I just...
He said, the jam is lovely. So the jamboree,
right? Now, we all know a jamboree doesn't have
to have jam. But what I'm asking, originally,
did the jamboree start with jam? Or are you just
doing a clever play on words? That's what I'm
asking. I think everything's gotten out of control,
guys. I need time with the gators. Do they not
know That I need a kind of a flow To help myself
go And that word goes It's hard to be a mayor
with so many things that I bought Using all the
money the people in the town got Yes. Yes, I
bought two crocodiles. Yes, I funded a jamboree
that I thought was worthwhile. And I, well, I've
been found out. They put all that stuff into
the jam? Instead of the real stuff, because they
were... The budget was fucked. Fuck! Oh my god,
we had so much stuff in there. I know. Every
one of these is tainted. Most of them are poison.
Well, there's got to be a way for us to be able
to tell which ones are poison and which ones
are poison. Yeah, the ones that don't make you
die. Yeah. Well, there's only one way to find
that out, really, isn't there? We've got a final
batch there, guys. Oh, yeah, yeah, great. It's
got to go real well. I mean, like, maybe there
doesn't have to be jam. I mean, I don't know
if that was intentionally part of the name. Oh,
we could change it. We could change it. Poisonberry.
Bermuda. Did I hear you say there doesn't need
to be jam? At the Jamboree? I don't know the
rules, really. I'm new to town. There doesn't
need to be jam at the jamboree, but me and the
mayor, well, we have a very special relationship
that involves jam. And I'm not entirely sure
if he's aware of that, but I think whenever it
does happen, when he tastes the special jam,
and no one is allowed to taste the special jam
before him, I think whenever he tastes it, he
will be brought back to that moment. Yeah, he'll
be brought back to that moment in the afterlife.
The jamboree is opening in five minutes. The
jam isn't that bad. There's a little bit of poison
inside everything you got It's not the kind that'll
kill you but you'll be blowing out shot Inside.
Inside. Inside. Antonio Bermuda, I thought you
could be trusted. I had a gut instinct about
you. What was that? Just something you fed to
me. Yes, we fed that to you. We've actually never
done this before. This is our every hot spot.
I surely am. prices of the practice. as a big
finale to... Anders? That's all we are? A big
finale? As grand as... Okay, well, uh, we gotta,
we gotta, we gotta, we gotta do the Rustland
Brothers now, then. We gotta pull a Ford in the
lineup. We gotta move the jam -tasting set, the
midnight jam, jammery, jam -tasting time to now.
brothers out here real quick otherwise everybody's
gonna leave and puke in the forest. There has
been a lot of puking. Mr. Mayor, that's a logistical
nightmare. We gotta get them back. We gotta get
them unpuking. Ruslan Brothers, all of those
things. I think what we need to do is just have
the big jam jam fest where they all jam out,
eat and jam at 8 p .m. Well, midnight, now 8
p .m. We've got to do it now. And I think that'll
be such a good jam that it'll make everybody
unpuked themselves. Yeah. Sorry, the door's open
there. Hey, we met earlier. I just had a question.
Right, so everywhere I see crocodiles, crocodiles,
crocodiles on the sign. What I'm wondering, is
they got the teeth in the mouth? So technically
they're the alligators. So are they crocodiles
or are they alligators? You tell me that. Well,
oh God, actually to be honest, I don't take great
care of them. I'm sorry, did you really come
in here just to ask a question? Who took the
question? To be honest, I feel like that's the
Scottish M .O. at this point. She just kind of
comes in, asks me questions that... They're not
random. They're... They're not even really going
to tell you. Keep coming in with these pointless
interruptions. They're going to do me out of
a pointless job. Principal! Hi, uh, no, sorry,
I'm the principal. nothing that would make a
child smile that loud. Easy, easy, principal.
I got a gator right here. Slow down, principal.
Oh, thank God. I got this gator right here. The
rustling brother won. Where's my other brother?
Let me see if I can rustle up. No, that's not
good. What's going on? Can I be a... I'm just...
Go away, Figaro. Where's Figaro for that one?
We need you. I believe the principal had a...
This is the gate of the principal's office. I
dare you! I dare you! This is snake skin! Get
out! Get out! Guys, look. I've got it all here
on the whiteboard. We need you to do the best
jam -jammering at now 8pm to make everybody...
It's classic... like it makes perfect sense in
my brain. Yeah, we're going to kill your alligators
in front of everybody. It'll be sick. Yeah, that's
what this town needs to watch some animals die.
That's it. Ba -boom. Which are they? Are they
alligators or are they crocodiles? You've got
to look at their teeth. You've got to look at
their teeth and you need to know whether you
have to say in a while or see you later. Well,
we're going to be seeing... Maybe I can do it.
Maybe I can get famous. This podcast has been
a delight to make. It will be continued to be
made. But I am leaving the country soon. This
has been like one big hurrah! And oh my god,
they opened the doors. Oh! Yeah! Close the doors!
But thank you very much. I probably had a longer
spin to thank you. Yeah, I had a longer spin
to say, but I am so tired, so... For our first
ever musical performance, we were very fortunate
to have Eddie Goodwin playing the piano and Luke
Bannon on the violin. We were also joined for
the cast with Ger Donnelly, Daiglin King, Derek
Miller, Amy Hughes and John Close. Thank you
so much to them for taking part and thank you
for listening. Please share this with friends
who you think might enjoy it or go and listen
to the podcast. Please rate and review it. It
does a lot. Thank you very much.
