Description

A wise woman enters carrying a large book titles Storyville. She crosses to center stage, sits and addresses the audience. Storyville is the town where everyone has a fable to unfold and a tale to tell. Stories are different, but they all begin with ‘Once upon a time…'” Numerous players enter, all talking at once until the wise woman signals to the audience, blows her whistle and starts the procession of stories with the Lion King and his bad breath.

When given the opportunity, most people will jump at the chance to tell their story. The characters in this one-act play are no different. You see, everyone in Storyville has a tale to tell. The problem is, they all want to talk at the same time. Other tales include a farmer and his family who felt their house was too small until the wise woman solved their problem
