The story based on the adventures of Lear's Owl and the Pussycat who went to sea in a beautiful pea-green boat with honey and plenty of money; of the Dong with the luminous Nose; of the Pig with a Ring through its Nose; of the Runcible Spoon, the villainous Plum Pudding Flea and others. All these are linked together to form a single tale with songs and mimed interludes. The Owl and the Pussycat sail to the land where the Bong Tree Grows, where, after many adventures, the Plum Pudding Flea is foiled and the two protagonists are married by the Turkey and live happily ever after.
