The Vagabond Players are getting into the holiday spirit with a new musical romp for Christmas.
Little Red Riding Hood is onstage at the Bernie Legge Theatre from Dec. 7 to 30, and Vagabond Players are promising a production that all ages can enjoy.
Sarra Barinbaum stars as Little Red Riding Hood, and Jean-Francois Thivierge is the Big Bad Wolf who’s determined to make her his dinner.
Roger Monk once again provides a hilarious pantomime dame as he takes on the role of Grandma, and Mike Parker adds to the fun as Tristan, the Ogre. Denise Brookson, Isabel Garcia and Anisha Thivierge provide charm and magic as assorted fairies, and the cast is rounded out by Jon MacIntyre as the Gnome, Anna Catterall as Beau Peep, Faith Hurd as the Prince, Kelsey Robertson as the Hunter and Janessa Thivierge as Cinderella.
“Sumptuous sets, gorgeous costumes, a little magic and lots of audience participation to keep your family laughing and singing throughout the holiday season,” a press release promises.
Little Red Riding Hood is onstage Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m., with Saturday and Sunday matinees at 2 p.m. Tickets are $17 regular, or $15 for seniors and youth, with $12 previews on Dec. 7 (evening) and Dec. 8 (matinee).
The Bernie Legge Theatre is in Queen’s Park. See www.vagabondplayers.ca for details and tickets, or call 604-521-0412 to reserve.
