The Moral in the Oral- Talking animals, twisted fables, and cabaret flair— this isn’t the fairy tale you remember.

A theatrical cocktail of cabaret, comedy, poetry and pathos. Set in a moody jazz club somewhere between memory and myth, four unlikely storytellers— the Donkey, Dog, Cat and Rooster— take to the Melbourne Fringe stage. Once discarded by society and now reimagined as jazzy narrators, to reclaim not just their voices, but the stories of every beast that’s ever been caged, tamed, or told to stay quiet.
