Renard, the fox, is not pleased about the assembly of beasts having chosen the Lion as king. So just after the coronation, crafty Renard takes advantage of the quarrels at the court between carnivores and herbivores, and starts to scheme how to take the throne one step at a time.

Renard or the Book of Beasts is a freely adapted version of Llull's famous work in the form of a vibrant and infectious musical, with an entertaining adaptation for a family audience by Marc Rosich and songs composed especially by Clara Peya. With no let-up in the pace, and featuring a gallery of animals that also includes leopards, bulls, elephants and even some of the more beastly humans, the play shows children the art of telling tales, which Llull calls "eximplis", or examples.
