(Scene One)

Narrator: Once there were three very peculiar, little pigs. They were brothers. One brother was, well he was practical. On this particular day two of the pigs, Higgle and Niggle, were getting ready to build their new houses.

Higgle: (from off stage) Come on, Niggle, get away from that window. You've already eaten six bubble gum ice cream carrots, twenty chocolate covered corn cobs, and who knows how many potato peel malts! Now stop looking at that candy in the window and come along. We must get to the fields and build our new houses. Brother Walter has almost finished his brick house and we haven't even started yet.

Niggle: (Higgle and Niggle enter) Walter is a boar.

Higgle: It's true. Walter doesn't even know how to sing or dance the way his very talented brother does.(Higgle begins to sing and dance around the stage) It seems to me that all Walter ever thinks about is that dumb old brick house of his. (Niggle nods) After all, Mother split her meager fortune so that we could go out into this cruel, hard world and live better lives than her own poor, undernourished, underfed, half-starved, famished...

Niggle: (during last speech Niggle has begun to sob louder and louder until he finally interrupts Higgle) Ah, don't worry Mom, I'll eat million peppermint parsnips just for you.

Higgle: There, there Niggle. I think the parsnips will have to wait. It's time to go build our houses. Now you go that way, (gestures toward one side of the stage) I'll go this way. (gestures toward the other side of the stage) And I'll come visit you when you've finished your house.

Niggle: (beings to walk off his side of the stage) You know, thinking of Mom always makes me hungry. I'll start building as soon as I eat a little snack.

Higgle: (watches to walk off stage) Good luck, Niggle. Now let's see, before a pig can find the right place to build a house, he must sing a song and dance a little dance. Build one, cha cha cha, build two, cha cha cha. (hums as he exits)

Hugo: (just as the pigs exit, Hugo pops up center stage and looks slowly from one side of the stage to the other.) There you go Hugo, you very clever, masterful, marvelous, handsome and oh so hungry wolf, you. (looks at audience) Did you see those fat juicy little pigs? Um, um, um, um um!

What tasty suppers they would make. (being to place) A plan, I must come up with a plan. (stops) I've got it! I'll use the old huff and puff trick. I bet with a little practice I'll be eating a fresh piggy for supper. (takes a loud breath and blows loudly, everything including stage shakes) Haven't lost the old touch. Well now, let's see, should I start with this pig? (starts off stage right) Or maybe that pig? (doubles back stage left) Hummmm, oh it both (chuckles) to myself. (walks off same side of stage as Higgle) Here piggy, piggy. Here you cute little piggy you.
