2025 Production - Tortoise vs. Hare 2: This Time It's Personal!

by Sean Abley

Produced by special arrangement with Playscripts, Inc. www.playscripts.com

Everyone knows that the slow-and-steady Tortoise beat the bragging Hare in the famous race--but when their great-grandkids Ro-Shell the tortoise and Jack Rabbit are talked into a rematch, anything could happen. The race will be on live TV, and their friends have lots of ideas about how Ro-Shell and Jack can beat one another, but only good sportsmanship can win the day in this zany, lighthearted retelling of the classic fable.
