We're the Jury For Little Red Riding Hood: A Trial! at Alnwick Playhouse
If you're looking for a totally unique show that the kids will love this Christmas, look no further
On her way to her grandma’s house, Little Red Riding Hood unexpectedly crosses paths with a (supposedly big and bad) wolf who tricks her and eats her grandma! That’s the story we know well, but we’ve never heard it told like this before.
A cast of two tell the tale and Victoria Lucie and Rob Leetham are a joy to watch. In this brilliantly different and fast-paced Alnwick Playhouse and Tortive Theatre production, the wolf (Rob) is on trial and we’re the jury.
Red (Victoria) tells her side of the story, the wolf tells his, and it’s up to us to decide who’s really in the wrong. That means plenty of audience interaction, which is always a good sign for a Christmas show!
Of course, like with any Alnwick Playhouse production, there’s plenty of laughs along the way too. Whilst this is a-family friendly show, we can confirm the adults had just as much fun as their kids during the opening night.
Will you be a fool to miss this fun-filled, festive show? Absolutely! Is the wolf really as big and bad as some claim he is… you be the judge!
