Aesop’s Fables ON STAGE 

    Your Lesson. Your Finish Line. 

Slow and steady wins the race. Don’t cry over spilt milk. Don’t count your chickens before they hatch. These are just some of the lessons of Aesop’s Fables. With the energy of Saturday morning cartoons, three actors will become a tortoise, a hare, a grasshopper, an ant, a fox, a lion, a mouse, a milkmaid, a goose, and many more right before your very eyes. Learning your lesson has never been such a hoot and a holler.  

Don’t get sour grapes – get your tickets today!
