Big Sad Wolf

Big Sad Wolf

On Thursday we went to East Taieri School to watch a play called The Big Sad Wolf. It was a play based on lots of different fairy tales. The funniest part was when they made up another version of Gangnam Style. My favourite character was Hansel because he kept doing this weird hand shake and talked in a German voice. The play was about a vegetarian wolf that was sad because he had been accused of eating The Boy Who Cried Wolf’s sheep so he hid in the Enchanted Forest. The disgraceful boy blackmailed the wolf by threatening to post a picture on Facebook, Twitter and Trade me of the wolf looking as if to eat a sheep. The only way the wolf could stop the boy posting the picture was to blow down the three little pigs houses. The wolf was allergic to straw and sticks so he couldn’t stop himself sneezing the first two pig’s houses down. When he got to the brick house, the boy who cried wolf set fire to it. The wolf tried to tell the pigs that their house was on fire, but they wouldn’t listen. The wolf accidentally blew down the house when he was trying to blow out the fire. Near the end, the wolf went to court because he had been accused of eating granny. The wolf sneezed and the judge’s clothes came right off. It was really the boy who cried wolf. He had been trying to wipe out all the houses to make a freeway through the enchanted forest and make the wolf get blamed for it all. Just then, the wolf sneezed again and blew the boy’s clothes off completely. At the end they all sang a made up song called “Big Glad Wolfy Smiles”. It was a good comedy play for the end of a busy day.       Callum                4.06.2013
