It’s the 1950s, hula-hoops are in high demand, and so is Little Red Riding Hood! Wise
Prince Jason (winner of the Math Olympics and the Nobel Prize), Strong Prince Justin
(who can bench press his own mother) and ordinary Loud Prince Frank all want to woo
Red Riding Hood. So the king and queen hire the Fairy Godmother to set three tasks
for the princes. Only the prince who can find the missing girl, defeat the dragon
and awaken a castle visitor from her slumber earns the right to woo Wed Widing Hood... that
is, Red Riding Hood! Alas, Little Red’s couch-potato parents don’t want to lose
their little girl. How else will they get their cookies delivered to Grandmother? So
they hire the evil queen to thwart the Fairy Godmother’s contest. Luckily, Little
Red Riding Hood's two sisters — Big Green Riding Hood and Medium Purple Riding Hood
— help balance out the situation. Complete with the big bad wolf and a sock-hopping
‘50s score, this easy-to-produce adventure is guaranteed to end in happily-ever-after
laughter for audiences and performers of all ages!
