Performed by Calgary Opera's McPhee Artists

Mother warns Little Red Riding Hood not to stray in the woods on her way to Grandma's house, but the cunning Wolf has other plans. He tries to trick Little Red, but at one mention of the treats in her basket, the Wolf's stomach begins to sour: his sensitive digestive tract cannot handle any sweets! Embarrassed and angry that Little Red has ruined his appetite, the Wolf rushes off to Grandma, whom he plans to eat for dinner with Little Red for dessert! Will help arrive in time or can Little Red outwit the Wolf herself?

This English-language children's opera adaptation of the classic fairy tale is accessible and delightful for all ages. Join the performers for a 10-minute Q&A after the show.
