Half a Pantaloon


Halfie is a monster with a lot going for him.  He’s a bright even charming chap and does very well at work but there is one thing about him which always leaves other monsters aghast.  It’s not his bat-like ears or his fangs, oh no.  It is his insistence on wearing half pantaloons rather than full trousers which leads to acrimony among the monstrous population.

Once you watch this animated short by Together you will be fully apprised of the perils and pitfalls of wearing short pants in the wrong circumstances. Yes, it’s a lesson about how our superficial appearances can affect others and so quite shallow – but rather joyously so.  As a plus it is voiced by Canadian national treasure Jayne Eastwood who really knows how to make a meal out of a nonsense poem!
