In front of an audience, he just sits and croaks like an ordinary frog. Eventually the poor sap is ruined and even spends some time in a mental institution because he insists the frog can sing and dance.

Flash forward several years to the future—the new building, now shabby, is being torn down. A construction worker finds the box with the singing, dancing frog….and you can guess what happens next. Now, if the frog would just perform in front of his new friend’s futuristic cell phone….Check online for Michigan J. Frog, WB.
