Aesop’s Fables

Aesop’s Fables

Slow and steady wins the race… join the Tortoise and the Hare at the finish line in this fast-paced, action-packed retelling of four of Aesop’s Fables. As the troupe of actors become the Rabbit, the Turtle, the Fox, the Crow, or the Donkey, the kids of all ages will be drawn into the action of the play. Four of Aesop’s best loved fables . . . “The Fox and the Crow,” “The Tortoise and the Hare,” “The Donkey in the Lion’s Skin,” and finally, “The Fox and the Sour Grapes,” are delightfully created in this engaging approach to storyteller’s theatre. This show is produced for the whole family and especially for very young audiences. A great introduction to live performance!
