"Tales From the Nest" is a collection of fairy tales narrated by three slightly neurotic newly-hatched birds.

While waiting for their mother to return with food, the hungry chicks decide to pass the time by telling each other stories: "The Bird, The Mouse, and The Sausage" and "Rapunzel," both by the Brothers Grimm, and an original tale entitled "The Dragon Hunter."

The stories are performed by a full cast of characters including a witch, a dragon, questionable royalty, maidens-in-distress, knights-in-even-more-distress, and a talking sausage.
