In this reimagining of Aesop’s cautionary tale with a valuable moral, a bored boy named Roy tends to his family’s flock. But in this delightful version, we meet a new character and discover the real source of mischief! Pearl, Roy’s pig-tailed crush, pays him a visit and invites him to go get ice cream. When Roy explains that he cannot leave his sheep, Pearl belittles his duty and begs to see his “wolf-crying” skills in action. Reluctantly, Roy agrees. Predictably, his family responds to the false alarm, none too pleased when there are no wolves to be found. Thoroughly amused by these antics, Pearl plans an elaborate presentation, dressing a sheep up as a wolf and hiding another sheep behind a tree so it appears to be missing. But little do they know, that’s where real wolves are lurking! Easy to stage and rehearse and with lots of fun characters, this play is perfect for young or beginning actors!

Our children thoroughly enjoyed The Boy Who Cried Wolf. This script called us to take a fresh, humorous look at a tried and true lesson. Mary Lanthorn, South Connection Enrichment Program, Dayton, OH
People have heard this story told before, but never like this. Why did the boy really cry wolf? The script has many entertaining roles and is beautifully imagined. Andy Falter, Kilbourne Middle School, Worthington, OH
Stacey Lane’s witty oddball characters resonate with parents as much as the children they bring. Tristant Cupp, Zoot Theatre Company, Dayton, OH
