What I liked

Agreed, such beautiful, rich and unique voices sing and tell the fables. The cast is super animated and they turn on a dime between some hilarious character portrayals (The Fox, The Judge, The Grasshopper, The Granny were some of my favorites)… and really nice staging and set. Bravo!

What I didn't like

More people need to see it.

My overall impression

Absolutely adored this gem of an offering. The ensemble cast gives it 150% and we really should be so lucky. I’d like to see more butts in seats, they so deserve it and gave us everything they had. I found myself at the edge of my own seat, amidst the giggling adults and children. Really well organized as they move from tale to tale, with a “cast” throughline building all the while. I am recommending families come see this together, you will be so glad you did!
