The Mouse That Roared

The Valhalla Theater Company presents an adaptation of Leonard Wibberley?s satiric novel The Mouse That Roared, a comic look at a fictional European country?s declaration of war on America.

When a California winery produces a cheap imitation version of the sole export of the tiny nation of Grand Fenwick, the Fenwickians have no choice but to declare war on the United States–and lose, in the hope of receiving massive aid payments. However, things go awry when the expeditionary force lands in New York harbor during an air raid drill, and ends up capturing the newly invented Q-Bomb (a weapon zillions of times more powerful than the H-bomb) from an eccentric professor at Columbia University. Will war or peace win out? Kaya Chwals directs.
