This operatic version of Little Red Riding Hood introduces young audiences to music by composers J. Offenbach and G. Rossini, with a story adaptation by John Davies.
In partnership with the Orpheum Theatre Group, step into a forest full of music, laughter, and adventure when Little Red and her family find themselves caught in a very unusual day. Forest Ranger Dudley hopes to invite Little Red’s mom, Widow Hood, to the Forest Ranger Ball. But when his invitation ends up in Granny’s hands instead, everything gets wonderfully mixed up! Granny gets dressed up for the ball, the Wolf isn’t quite who you expect, and Little Red finds herself in a bit of trouble.
Come meet Little Red, the Wolf, Granny, and the rest of the gang for an operatic adventure where anything can happen!
The audience will explore opera basics, enjoy a live performance of Little Red’s Most Unusual Day, and have the opportunity to participate in a Q&A with the characters!
Little Red’s Most Unusual Day and supporting educational materials sent ahead of the performance align with Tennessee Curriculum Standards for Music, Theatre, and English/Literacy.
