Lion and Mouse Stories
Synopsis:
This clever play is really four little plays tied together by a Mouse -- A very clever Mouse -- who tells a series of stories to a Lion -- a very arrogant Lion -- to avoid being eaten. the Tiger, the Brahman and the Jackal is the story of a clever Jackal tricking a tiger into giving up his dinner (the poor Brahman). A Better Mousetrap is about a man who builds an elaborate mousetrap to catch the mouse who is frightening his wife. the mousetrap explodes, the wife leaves, and the mouse stays. the Lion's New Tail is a variation of the Emperor's New Clothes, with the lion buying an invisible tail, purchased with his roar. Without tail and roar, he is mistaken for Reginald by Reginald's wife and dragged off to go shopping. King of the Jungle is the story of a Lion who when elected king eats one too many chickenfeet at his coronation. the last sticks in his throat. Only a mouse's paw is small enough to remove the tasty morsel, and as -- per the Lion's request -- there is no mouse in the story, the Lion is doomed. Each tale is re-told with the unique wit of a mouse on a dinner plate. In the end, of course, the Mouse prevails! Each story provides a new part for each actor and the entire cast stays on stage for the full 50-minute length of the play.
