The Mouse That Roared

April 17-18, 2026

"Don't pass up a country just because it's small!"

 

The Dutchy of Grand Fenwick is on the brink of bankruptcy. With the country's economy tanking ever since a Californian brand started ripping off their only export- the Pino Grand Fenwick- with a cheap imitation, things are looking desperate. But Gloriana the Twelfth has a plan: 1) declare war on on the U.S.A., 2) be vanquished by them, and 3) reap the benefits of post-war rehabilitation and aid from said country. However their attempt at invasion results in something most unexpected- they win!

 

This delightful comedy explores the importance of moral conviction, courage to do the right thing, and showcases growth of character a crossed its vast and multifaceted cast.

 

Produced by special arrangement with THE DRAMATIC PUBLISHING COMPANY of Woodstock, Illinois.
