Cast of Characters
Hayley
The youngest of a litter of three, Hayley is the happiest and
most carefree of Mama Pig’s little piggies. Hayley loves to
eat chocolate ice cream cake with rainbow sprinkles, take
naps in the morning sunshine, give and get hugs from Mama
Pig, and snuggle in a freshly washed blankie. There are only
three things that Hayley says make her lose sleep: her piggie
brothers Mortimer and Twigs, and any kind of beans, with the
beans being a distant third. (Mortimer is too bossy and Twigs
spends too much time with his calculator.)
Hayley wants to grow up in her Mama’s footsteps and
join the entertainment industry; she aspires to go to the big
city and become the Carvel Ice Cream’s Piggie Puss Spokes model. Hayley already knows her signature tag line, and
practices it every day — “If you must eat pork, make it a Piggie
Puss!” Until then, you can find her at Old McDonald’s
Farm, singing, eating ice cream cake, practicing for stardom,
building things against her will, and of course, sleeping.
Mama
Mama Pig’s real name is Daisy. She loves flowers, beans and
her piglets, of whom she is very protective since Papa Pig
mysteriously disappeared during a wind storm. Before her
marriage to Papa Pig, she worked at both Disney World and
Nickolodeon Studios with occasional guest appearances on
Green Acres as Arnold’s love interest. She enjoys gardening,
creating new bean recipes and videogaming - if she can find
her glasses. Her favorite saying is: Here’s mud in your sty!
Wolf (a.k.a Wolfie)
He was born in a blizzard on a frosty mountain top!
He got his nasty snarl from his dear ol’pop
His nosey smelly sniffer does quite a job,
Better than any other wolf including his
Older brother bob!
His teeth are the sharpest of any beast around
and he’s got quite a growl with a most
growlerful sound!

for 3 little piggies to fill his giant appetite.
He’s a wolf among wolves feared by creatures big and small
Consider yourself warned, should wolfie come to call!

Bunny
The Bunny, whose real name is Fluffy McBottoms, is a
distant cousin to America’s most famous bunny, Bugs.
Long ago, Bunny wanted to stop being a cartoon and start
making music—so he came to real life, left the animated
world behind, and created a new kind of music: hip-hop. It
became so popular that he made a lot of money from it, and
he retired last year to focus on live theater. This is Bunny’s
first show.
