SHOW INFORMATION
SUMMARY
Little Red Rising
Hood is off to see her sick grandma in the woods.
When the Big Bad Wolf finds out, she has other ideas and
will stop at nothing to have things her way! Through a series of outrageous
challenges, mixed directions and clever trickery, Little Red and the Big Bad
Wolf clash in an epic quest to make it to Grandma’s house first!
This modern twist on the classic tale will entertain
audiences both young and old.
ROLES
* Little Red
Riding Hood – Young and vibrant. Her youthful nature is part of her charm but
also gets in her way sometimes. She has a hint of attitude when she doesn't get
her way but she is by no means arrogant.
She also knows Kung Fu.
* B.B. Wolf – An arrogant
queen bee type girl. She is the ultimate “plastic” – she has style, looks and
popularity. She is deceptive, sneaky and full of ideas that will benefit her.
* Granny – A
lovely old woman who is perhaps losing it a little. She is a little deaf, a little
blind and a little crazy but her intentions are good and ultimately she loves
all of those close to her with all her heart.
* Mama Blue – A
practical modern day woman. She is a proud single mother who has a firm hand
with a loving heart. She is a lumberjack by trade but this does not reflect her
femininity.
_Note: ALL
performers have to be comfortable singing, being able to move (dance) and
interact with children._
