Accompanied by his friends Ed and Moose, Pipsqueak the Mouse tells the story of his ancestor, Squeakherzade, a heroic young mouse who risks her tail to save her family by spinning tales for the evil Ali Catto. Mystical genies with bad attitudes, Sinbad's seven voyages in rap, and an impatient Forty Thieves all take the stage to present this inventive and irreverent post-modern take on the Arabian Nights.
