AESOP’S FABLES

A New Adaptation by Lee Cortopassi

Quintessence's Lee Cortopassi creates a modern adaption of Aesop’s Fables, a collection of short morality tales for children that have been told since 600 BC. Keeping the delightful anthropomorphic animals of the original stories, this world-premiere adaptation uses contemporary language and situations to re-imagine these timeless tales of friendship, trust, honor, common sense, and morality for the whole family.

REVIEWS

“The show transforms “Aesop’s Fables” from tales of instruction into a wonderland of fabulous bewilderment.”

“All of the characters in Lee Cortopassi’s colorful cartoon-like adaptation of Aesop’s Fables sparkle, and speak, just like the original ones drawn up way back circa 600 B.C. But they also snap, crackle and pop with super-duper sound effects, designed by Daniel Ison, cool lighting concocted by Joseph Glodek, and an exceptionally savvy ensemble.”
