The sassy Puss comes to singing and dancing life in Margaret Jackins and Cheryl Kemeny’s musical version of this fairytale that teaches us “When life hands you lemons, make lemonade!”
When young Jonas’ father leaves his mill and wagon to his greedy sister and goofy brother, young Jonas is left with 5 gold pieces and a cat. It turns out that Jonas actually got the better deal when wily Puss succeeds in tricking an evil Sorceress into turning herself into a mouse (easily caught by the cat!) thereby forfeiting her castle and lands to the inept Jonas who then snares the neighboring Princess as his bride!
