Aesop's
Fables or the Aesopica is
a collection of fables credited to Aesop, a slave and story-teller believed to have lived in ancient Greece between 620 and 560 BCE. (source).
Like many, our home library, especially during Dumpling’s younger days, was
brimming with books on these fables and we also homeschooled on them. From Ant and the Grasshopper to Lion and the
Mouse, there were always valuable lessons to be learnt from each story.
I Theatre is certainly no stranger to the local arts scene
having produced many children’s theatrical productions over
the years which Dumpling and I had the chance to watch. Till now, she still
recalls plays such as “The Enormous Turnip”, “The Little Red Hen” and “Magic
Porridge Pot” where the plays were interactive and the songs, catchy.
In its first production for this year, I Theatre is bringing
to us about 8 stories from Aesop Fables in a 50min production which includes the lesser
known fables such as “The Jay And The Peacock?” and “Androcles And The
Lion”.
The play promises an impressive line-up of actors from I Theatre’s previous productions such as Ant and The
Grasshopper, Grimm’s Fairytales and Puss in Boots using marvellous masks,
puppetry, live action and songs!
