The Cabbagetown Theatre Company presents The Saucy Scarecrow from September 5 – 7 at the 2008 Cabbagetown Festival. It's a raucously entertaining comedy for the whole family, featuring a scarecrow who’s come to life, the organic farmer who made him so, and three “bewitching” sisters named Rag, Tag and Bobtail.

The Saucy Scarecrow will be presented at the Necropolis Chapel, 200 Winchester Street, just across from Riverdale Farm. Shows are scheduled for Friday, September 5 at 7:30 p.m., Saturday, September 6 and Sunday, September 7 at 12 noon, 1 p.m., 2 p.m., 3 p.m. and 4 p.m. Tickets are only $5.00 for adults and $3.00 for children, and are available at the door. Shows run 30 minutes.

The show follows the adventures of Boo, a scarecrow who’s come to life in Farmer Atticus’ non-genetically modified cornfield. Awakened by the attention of three young witches – the twisted sisters Rag and Tag, and their studious sibling, Bobtail - Boo joins Bobtail and Atticus in a series of excellent adventures, as they attempt to thwart the nasty advances of Rag and Tag.

The Saucy Scarecrow was written and workshopped for the stage by director Kim Sprenger, assistant director Liam Doherty and the Company. It features the talents of returning Cabbagetown Festival favourites Basil Tamkei as Boo the Scarecrow, Wendy Akerboom as Atticus the Farmer and Kanza Farris, Sofia Stefou and Michelle Fukes as the Witch Sisters: Rag, Tag and Bobtail.
