 
Tommy was excited to perform. He had been practicing for weeks in preparation for the show. On the day of the performance, Tommy arrived with a big birdcage. It was so high, he almost couldn't reach the top! 
Some of the crowd gasped when Tommy opened the birdcage. Everyone was so curious! He started to perform some of the tricks he'd been practicing. First, he sang some songs and waved his hands in the air. Then, he jumped into the birdcage and threw around balls. Finally, he pulled out a bright light and danced around it. 
The audience was amazed. They had no idea how Tommy had done it all with that birdcage! Later, he revealed how he had planned it all out. He'd attached a rope to the top of the birdcage and used it to pull out the balls and the light. Everyone was so impressed with how clever he was. 
Tommy smiled and waved to the audience. They cheered as he took his bow. He had certainly performed a show to remember!
