THE STORY

The story features Ugly a duckling who discovers his inner beauty when he becomes a swan, his doting and defensive mother Ida, a drake who "ducks" his fatherly responsibilities, a gaggle of comical geese, a sly, treacherous tomcat who wants to befriend Ugly so he can eat him, a wisecracking bullfrog, and other barnyard creatures, together with a great many "fowl" puns. On the surface a simple children's tale ....... but there's much more to it than that!!!

With Tempo's unique treatment this is a fun show for young AND old, with the highest standards of production.  Boasting a cast of 17 adults and starring younger Tempo talent playing the ducklings and froglets, the 'stage is set' for a great night's entertainment!
