Painted color key, gouache on board, depicting a vertical pan view of the Las Vegas strip. Item is presented as background only and with cel overlay. Rock-A-Doodle is a re-imagining of Geoffrey Chaucer's "The Nun's Priest's Tale of the Cock and the Hen, Chauntecleer and Pertelote." Tricked into forgetting to crow at sunrise one morning by the Grand Duke of Owls, the rooster Chanticleer leaves the farm in shame, an event that triggers a perpetual rainstorm. Chanticleer's friends from the farm soon make their way to Las Vegas, in hopes of bringing Chanticleer back to save their home from the coming flood.
