All Ears Theater: African Fable

Drought has struck the land and the animals are starving. One great tree is laden with mysterious and delicious-looking fruit, but will only yield its bounty if its name is spoken. And only King Lion knows the name. Which animal will learn the name and save everyone? In their radio adaptation of this folk-tale, Arnold Johnston and Deborah Ann Percy have drawn on versions widely-told throughout Africa.

Directed by Sid Ellis. 

Adapted by Arnold Johnston and Deborah Ann Percy.
