The Fox and the Crow
**Title: The Fox and the Crow**
*Characters:*
- Fox (clever, cunning)
- Crow (proud, but naïve)
---
**Scene: A sunny forest clearing. A large tree stands center stage with branches extending outward. A beautiful crow perches on one of the branches, holding a piece of cheese in her beak. Enter Fox, sly and hungry, from stage left.**
---
**Fox** (to himself):
(looking at the crow with the cheese)
Well, well, well! What a fortunate day! That crow has a piece of cheese, and I haven't had a decent meal in hours. Time to put my wits to work. (smiling cunningly)
(looks up at the crow)
Oh, what a magnificent sight I see! Such a regal creature, gracing the forest with her presence!
---
**Crow** (holding cheese, tilts head, curious but silent).
---
**Fox** (continuing, louder):
I’ve seen many birds in my time, but none can compare to you, dear Crow! Your feathers gleam in the sunlight, as black as midnight, and your eyes—they sparkle like stars! But—oh!—I wonder… could such beauty be matched by your voice?
---
**Crow** (thinking to herself):
This fox seems quite wise… and he’s certainly right about my feathers. I do have a beautiful voice… Perhaps I should show him how sweetly I can sing!
---
**Fox** (waiting patiently, rubbing his paws together):
Oh, if only I could hear just one note, I’m sure it would be the most beautiful sound in the entire forest. Please, indulge me with a song, dear Crow!
---
**Crow** (forgetting about the cheese, puffing out her chest with pride):
Caw! Caw! (opens her beak wide to sing, and the cheese drops to the ground)
---
**Fox** (quickly grabbing the cheese):
Ah! Thank you, dear Crow, for the snack! (smirks) I never doubted your voice was as beautiful as your feathers, but now I’ve had my fill of both.
---
**Crow** (realizing what happened, ashamed and angry):
You tricked me!
---
**Fox** (chewing the cheese):
Perhaps, but let this be a lesson, my friend. Vanity and pride can lead you astray. Next time, keep your treasures close, and your ego in check. (smiling) Thank you for the meal!
---
**Crow** (grumbling, shaking her head):
I suppose you’re right. (sighs) I’ll be more careful next time. (watches as Fox walks off with the cheese)
---
**Fox** (exiting):
Until we meet again, Crow. (winks and leaves)
---
**Crow** (to herself, shaking her head):
I won’t be fooled again, that’s for sure. (flies away)
---
**End**.
