This charming children's opera, written by Seymour Barab, is the same story we've all grown up hearing... but with a twist. Wait until you see Red's secret weapon that defends her and Grandma from the Wolf's evil intentions! Not only is the music wonderful, but there are many great character lessons to be learned in this brilliant gem of children's opera.

Our original cast included baritone Jonathan LaBarre as the wily and very comical Wolf/Woodsman, mezzo-soprano Sandra Fritze as the doting and flamboyant Mother and Grandmother, and Elaine Crane as the mischievous Red herself. The production is graced with professionally painted sets, lovely storybook costumes and piano accompaniment by the talented Olga Rogach.

Little Red Riding Hood was written with children in mind. With a simple and portable set design, it is easily brought into almost any performance space and comes to life at once! The story is a charming one, and the characterizations so compelling that young and old will equally enjoy this remarkable little treasure. It is a wonderful experience of the beautiful art of opera, for music lovers of any age.
