This kid-friendly version of the classic children’s story of a little girl, who strays away from the path in the woods and meets a Big Bad Wolf, doesn’t even have a Big Bad Wolf! He is the Silly Cookie Wolf and the smell of the cookies in Little Red’s basket is almost too much for him to bear! The children learn the "going off in the woods by yourself" instructions from Little Red’s mother, Mrs. Red. She patiently packs Little Red’s basket with the help of the children in the audience and then doubles as Little Red’s Grandmother, Granny Red, at the end of the story. Along the journey in the woods, Little Red is reminded by big signs that say things like, "Don’t Play," "Stay on the Path," and " Don’t talk to strangers." And the children shout out the warnings when they appear from behind the trees in the woods. But does Little Red listen. No. She plays, she strays off the path and she talks to strangers! Everything ends on a good note, with both the wolf and Little Red learning their lessons. These important life messages about how to stay safe are repeated several times during the show in a fun, musical way designed to help the children to always remember never to talk to strangers!

Celebrating Peter’s 105^th birthday, this Classic Children’s tale is performed by both actors and little audience members alike.  The actors play the roles of Peter Rabbit and Beatrix Potter, the author of the series of tiny books of which Peter Rabbit is 1 of 23.   Unsuspecting adults play Farmer McGregor and the berry bush and the anxious-to-volunteer children in the audience not only play Mrs. Rabbit and Peter’s good little brothers and sister, Flopsy, Mopsy and Cottontail, but they will also grace the stage as cabbage heads, french beans, radishes, wheel barrows, mice, cats, goldfish, colorful sparrows and garden gates!  Although the central story is the same as the one we grew up with, this tale gleefully changes with every performance as new cast members join in the fun and excitement of telling Beatrix Potter’s enduring tale of being good and “minding your mother.”
