You Gave Me a Sheep

Book & Lyrics by Lauren Kahane
Music by Emily Chiu

You Gave Me A Sheep is based on the Japanese myth of “The Herder and the Weaver.” Princess Cosabella, a weaver, meets Prince Roy, a herder. They fall madly in love. Their fathers, both Kings, grant them permission to marry on the condition they promise to return to their weaving and herding duties after a brief honeymoon. But the honeymoon is so good, Cosabella and Roy keep extending it. As punishment, their fathers banish them to opposite ends of the Milky Way. The magpies come up with a plan: one day each year they will build a bridge spanning the Milky Way so the lovers can spend a day together. But can even the greatest love survive on only one day a year?
