A boy in 1940s Liverpool has a strange vision in the sky...

This was in honor of John Lennon's 81st birthday.

This is largely inspired by the way 'Walrus' was used in the Cirque du Soleil's Beatles-themed show 'Love', which I saw about ten years ago (I hear 'Walrus' has since been cut from the show, which is very disappointing).

How it used to play out, after 'Eleanor Rigby' sets the scene for bleak, postwar Liverpool, the Walrus pops out of a giant egg to lead the cast in a wild, chaotic dance to signal change is coming and Beatlemania is on its way. Except, for some reason, the Cirque du Soleil Walrus was a skinny hiphop dancer with tattoos all over him and a gas mask with tusks. I wanted to make him more walrus-y.
