Four animals must leave their homes after years of faithful service before they are evicted or worse! They meet up on the road to Bremen where they join together to become musicians.
This is a classroom or stage play version of the popular Grimms Brothers tale of the Musicians of Bremen.
The story is allegorical, a fable in the style of Aesop, using animals to show us how we should behave. It is about the fair treatment of workers when they grow old, as well as about how we look after our animals in old age.
This version uses a circus setting to bring the story to life and offers opportunities for whole classes to be involved in storytelling and acting. It can also be used by Theatre-in-Education teams to draw out the morals. The play comes with setting details and background ideas for teachers to use.
