    Date: July 5, 2021 - July 10, 2021
    Event Description:
    Ages 8-10 Little Red is wondering why life isn’t more exciting, while Granny shows up in search of the Wolf, who has stolen her bicycle. Granny, who is a karate expert, has no fear of the Wolf, a most unusual creature who is Harvard educated (he wrote his thesis on Wolfgang Mozart), enjoys being evil, and loves little children (on whole wheat toast). When Granny has an accident (she breaks her hand practicing karate on a brick), Little Red sets out to deliver dinner to her. She goes through the woods, where she encounters a variety of forest creatures including, of course, the Wolf, who discovers her destination and arrives at Granny’s house before she does. He locks up Granny and lays a trap for Little Red. Luckily, this updated retelling retains the traditional ending as the Woodsman arrives in time to save her. The book for this new telling of this beloved tale is by Williams S. Kilborne, Jr. and Alberta Viola, with Music by Albert T. Viola and Lyrics by Williams S. Kilborne, Jr. Audiences will go out singing, Just a Little Girl, The History Lesson, The Life of the Forest, A Perfectly Wonderful Wolf, and Granny’s Song.

Ticket Price: $12 Run Time: 50 minutes with no intermission ** Tickets available only to families of the students **
