| Roles | Minimum Male roles = 3. Minimum Female roles = 1. Minimum total with doubling = 4. Minimum total without doubling = 4. No chorus. A mother and her three sons.

| Style | Short comedy sketch based on a familiar story, though, in this case, not told with any particular moral. No set required. |
