Description
Tuesday, November 10, 2009 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM
The Fine and Performing Arts Department invited you to enjoy their production of "Puss in Boots and Other Cat Tails" a children's play.
MC Cat warms up the audience with a comedy routine, then introduces the first tale by recounting the memory of his French Aunt Puss, the smartest cat in France (PUSS IN BOOTS) who came up with a clever plan to make her pauper master rich. Puss succeeds and gets to live the high life of a palace cat.
Next, MC recounts her cousin Wild Cat from West Africa (WILD CAT AND HYENA) who unknowingly built the same house with Hyena. They each think the house is helping to build itself. West African style drumming supports the action in this tale. MC remembers the story of her Chinese ancestor Mao who risked his life to help his master (THE MAGIC RING). When kindly Li Po releases a carp, it gives him a magic ring. Evil Shao Ling steals the ring, but Li Poâs cat, Mao, and Shao Lingâs Dog work together to retrieve it. Staging and percussion are in the style of Peking Opera.
Finally, MC segues into the tale of her Mexican nephew, Gatito, who with a rooster, and lamb manages to get into a heap of trouble on Abuelaâs farm (THE CAT, THE ROOSTER AND THE LAMB). When Gatito is left to stir the pot, the temptation to eat the meat is too great. He and his cohorts find themselves outfoxing a wolf, and luckily bringing home a spoil to replace what they greedily ate.
