I will stage The Three Little Pigs in such a way that the play will fit a tragicomic style. To achieve this end, the costumes of the characters will have to be absurd to the point of hilarity. The three little pigs will not be “little” but rather big enough to see that they do not fit together inside any one of their houses. The big bad wolf will look anything but “bad” or “mean”. The wolf will not have protruding fangs, its face will show gaiety by curving its mouth to form a constant smile, its behavior will be like that of a toddler, and its voice throughout the play will be soft like that of a child. On the other hand, the three little pigs will be portrayed as being rough and filled with grunt, like the typical portrayals of the wolf in the story. Collectively, the costumes of the three little pigs will be mean-looking. Each of their houses will be placed with decorations such as picture frames and posters or paintings that show their violent side which include images of them while brawling in a fight. The aim is to show that the pigs are indeed far from being kind that it will be surprising that they are afraid of the wolf.

As for the tragic side of the play, two of the pigs will have to perish. The second pig will be eaten by the wolf while they, together with the first pig, are inside the second pig’s house. The first pig will evade capture and run to the house of the third pig. While the two remaining pigs are inside the house, the wolf will follow and attempt to blow the house down. His failure to do so will tempt him to go down the chimney. After going down the chimney, the wolf will find himself caught in a pot of boiling water. Before the wolf dies from extreme pain, he will be able to capture the third pig and inflict harm, until the pig bleeds to death together with the wolf. The first and sole surviving pig will shed his tears until the curtains are drawn down. These turn of events will show that despite the seemingly comic nature of the story, the ending is tragic.
