Tale: Mocho Comi! | Adaptation, narration and singing: Estefânia Surreira | Running time: 60 min | Target audience: general
"One day, a wolf was wandering in the hills when he saw an owl sitting on its nest at the top of a pine tree. The wolf wrapped his tail around the pine tree and said loudly that he was going to saw it off. Up above, the poor owl said: -O compadre! Don't saw down my pine tree... or my little ones will fall and die... The wolf replied: "Come on, come down here, I want to give you a message. The owl got careless, came down from the nest... and the wolf grabbed it with his teeth and put it in his mouth!" In the mouth of a very silly wolf, we will travel, snugly, deep into the forest. There we'll meet a sardine-eating fox, a good-hearted wise owl and a raven who's a good singer. To embellish the journey, we'll bring along our great poet Bocage. It will be a journey through the poetry, tales and fables of our oral tradition, full of adventures, songs and lots of joy.
They say that a certain fox,
Walking very hungry,
Saw purple, ripe bunches
Hanging from a high trellis.
He was happy to bite them;
But he couldn't reach them,
She said: - "They're green, they're no good,
Only dogs can eat them".
And here falls a tree, as
He continued on his way;
And believing it to be a berry,
He quickly turns his snout.
By Manuel Maria Barbosa du Bocage
