Songs from
The Boy Who Cried Wolf
A Tale of Sincerity

Running Time: approx. 30 min.

Synopsis:     
A family in ancient Greece has a son who is contrary.  He likes to joke around and have fun.  His parents and people in his town think it is time for him to learn the value of work. 

They give him the job of tending the sheep.  They warn him of the dangers of wolf attacks, but assure him that they will be nearby if he needs help.  He finds this job very boring and decides to play tricks on the villagers as a joke. 

​He learns the value of being sincere when no one believes him as the wolf really attacks.


"Long, Long Ago" is sung by Aesop and his class of students as he begins to tell his fable.
"Take Care, Beware" is sung by the citizens who try to impress upon the Boy how to watch for the Wolf as he tends the sheep.
"The Little Lambs' Pastorale" is sung by the sheep as they are guided to graze by the Boy.
"Being Sincere" is sung by the Mother as tries to impress upon the Boy to do what he should.
"Foolish Boy" is sung by the famers and villagers when the Boy trick's have gone too far.
"Now I Realize" is sung by a remorseful Boy when he realizes he cannot save the sheep from the Wolf.
"Ev'rybody Works" is sung by the entire cast as they explain to the Boy that everybody has a job to do and that each job is important and valued.
