The Tale of the City Mouse and the Country Mouse
Retold in Script and Songs by Betsy Lee Bailey

This 15 minute Mini Classroom Musical casts two girls in the lead roles. That is rather unusual for Children's Theater! The script calls for a flexible cast of 10-16 students with the rest of the class singing the songs and providing sound effects and playing rhythm instruments.
