"The Announcer's Test" was made popular by famed comedian Jerry Lewis. On his yearly telethon to support the fight agains muscular dystrophy, he would often present "The Announcer's Test." It has been suggested that the test was used to see if the speaker had a voice for radio. It contains all vowel sounds and every letter of the alphabet. Please learn it in your first week of Theatre Arts!
One hen
Two ducks
Three squawking geese
Four limerick oysters
Five corpulent porpoises
Six pairs of Don Alvarzo's tweezers
Seven thousand Macedonian warriors in full battle array
Eight brass monkeys from the ancient sacred crypts of Egypt
Nine apathetic sympathetic diabetic old men on roller skates with a marked propensity toward procrastination and sloth
Ten lyrical spherical diabolical denizens of the deep who all stall around the corner of the quo of the quay of the quivery...all at the same time
