Mother Goose

by Paul Wetherby
directed by Julie Taylor & Paul Wetherby

 

There is trouble in Rainbow Land where all our characters live! Mother Goose has no goose and so has no chance at all of winning one of the prizes in the Grand Goose Fair. To make matters worse, the wicked squire intends to throw Mother Goose and her beautiful daughter, Jill, out of their cottage for not paying the rent. However, he has not reckoned with Priscilla, the Goose - who appears on the scene and has amazing powers.
