A Magical Musical Fairy Tale
In Three Enchanting Acts and Nine Illustrious Scenes
SYPNOPSIS:
In the forest of Mt. Malan live Grandpa Tree, Spotted Mama Doe and her Baby Fawn, Pudgy Bear, Honey Bunny, Squirmy Squirrel, a troupe of monkeys, Bitty Bird and her sisters, two bees: Buzzing and Bumble and other small animals and creatures. The industrious and intelligent Lord Malon, a flower god, cultivates and nurtures the magical and beautiful Malan flower. Each year, the happiest day for everyone in the forest is the first day when the Malan flower blooms. The magical and mystical powers of the Malan flower can help the kind-hearted folks reach their goals and make their dreams come true.
Old Papa Wang, a poor farmer, lives at the foot of the neighboring mountain. He has two lovely twin daughters, Dalan or Jie-Jie (meaning elder sister in Chinese), and Xiaolan or Mei-Mei (meaning younger sister in Chinese). Dalan is lazy and selfish while Xiaolan is diligent and kind-hearted. Xiaolan adores the lovely Malan flower. Lord Malon admires the simple and truthful Xiaolan. They fall in love and marry.
Outside of the forest lives the greedy, cruel and cunning Wicked Wolf. Wicked Wolf has led members of his Kingdom of Wolves to attack Mt. Malan with the evil intent to occupy the forest and take possession of the magical wish-granting Malan Flower. This time, realizing that Xiaolan is about to return to her Papa’s hut for a visit, Wicked wolf uses black magic to transform himself into Creepy Cat, which is Dalan’s pet cat. He plans to fan the flame of jealousy that Dalan has of her younger sister, mixed together with lies, tricks, black magic and deceits, to get rid of Xiaolan, and take the Malan flower once and for all. The Wicked Wolf forces Dalan to pretend to be Xiaolan and go to Mt. Malan to retrieve the secret password that allows access to the Malan flower. However, Malon detects Dalan’s trickery due to her clumsy slipup.
The courageous Bitty Bird dies by the hand of Wicked Wolf, but transforms into a red berry tree and relates to Malan. Lord Malon discovers Wicked Wolf’s treacherous plan. Together with Grandpa Tree, Lord Malon and his forest friends recover the magical Malan flower, and Creepy Cat burns to ashes. Wicked Wolf receives his deserving punishment.
Once again, the "Malan Wish-Come-True Festival" begins... This enchanted and beautiful Malan flower is here to help all who are courageous and kind, forever...
