Three Billy Goats - WCTDC K-2 Show
This is the story of three sibling goats, Nanny, Billie, and Fred, who realize they have just run OUT OF GRASS in their farmyard! Across the bridge they see a yard full of nice, green, yummy grass. The only problem is, underneath that bridge lives a grumbly, grouchy Troll! The three goats retreat into the barn to make their plans on how to get across the bridge to the new grass. Meanwhile, we meet… the Troll, a friendly, silly Troll that would never hurt anyone who loves to play but he’s just lonely for someone to play with. After numerous attempts, the three goats return and are determined to get across that bridge. Because the goats are so rude to the Troll, he stops them before they can pass. The Troll helps them understand how important manners are and that it’s not always greener on the other side. There is nothing to fear from the Troll, in fact, they now have a new playmate– and lots of nice, fresh, new grass!
