The Adventures of Little Red (Riding Hood, of course) at Santa Monica Playhouse

An enchanting journey through the Bavarian Black Forest replete with romance, lots of laughs, and musical and lyrical ideas brazenly borrowed from Gilbert & Sullivan...filled with ever-surprising delights that will lift up your spirits." (This Week in Show Business). A joyous family-friendly musical comedy, this hilarious reworking of the classic fairy tale is filled with music and dance, fun special effects, laughter and romance, and a host of delightful characters including a sweetly independent Little Red, not one but three Grandmamas, a highly discombobulated Huntsman, and the oh-so-charming, not the least bit scary, Baron Wolfgang von Wolfgang, as the only "wolf" in sight. Anything but a Grimm fairy tale, LITTLE RED offers excitement and musical fun for audiences of all ages. Birthday and Tea Parties, hosted by a favorite fairy tale character from the show, are available in conjunction with every performance."The talented team of Evelyn Rudie and Chris DeCarlo have done it again with this magical fantasy." (KPFK) Audiences of all ages will love the playful and authentically designed costumes, lilting musical numbers, and heartfelt romances that develop along the path to Grandmama's house.
