​
Nothing’s quite what you’d expect in the deep, dark woods.
​
Little Red Riding Hood is no longer little, she no longer wears a hood and she wants to be called by her real name. She’s questioning everything. And so are Mother, the Woodcutter and even the Wolf!
​
A playful and mischievous retelling of the familiar fairy tale, with original songs and signature Roustabout silliness, that dares you to step off the path and write your own story.
​
What would you do if you could?
​
Suitable for everyone aged 4+.
​
Little Red Riding Could demands a lot from its young audiences. It is suitable for children 4 and above. We do not recommend bringing younger siblings who are under 4 years old.
​
For the best experience, we recommend reading the director’s note before seeing the show, which includes some questions for consideration that may spark interesting discussions between parents and children.
