  • Favorite Aesop's Fables and More
    Favorite Aesop’s Fables and More Storytelling Show Presented by Katie Adams’ Make Believe Theater Welcome to the show! Perseverance… honesty… helping others, Aesop’s Fables show us how to make good choices in life. Storyteller Katie Adams will exercise your imagination with her energetic performance and drawings of The Race of the Tortoise and the Hare, The Lion and the Mouse, The Boy who Cried Wolf, and more fables in this fun, storytelling show. This 45-minute show includes live illustrations, and audience participation. Before the Show Synopsis of the Stories There are five fables in today’s show. Here is a summary of each one. The Race of the Tortoise and the Hare Katie will invite the audience to participate by cheering for the Tortoise and the Hare. This is Aesop’s fable about a fast Hare (rabbit) who liked to make fun of a slow Tortoise. Set in Florida, down at the beach, all the animals are Florida wildlife including Gopher Tortoise. Tired of being teased about his slow pace, Tortoise challenges Hare to a race, with all the nearby animals to cheer them on. Once the race begins, Hare is so sure he will win the race, he stops for a snack, and then for a nap. Meanwhile Tortoise keeps going, keeping his eye on the finish line and letting nothing distract him. Just before Tortoise is about to finish the race, Hare wakes up and with a burst of speed tries to beat Tortoise. But he is too late! Tortoise wins the race. The moral of the story is: Slow and steady wins the race.
