The Dangerous Christmas of Red Riding Hood

“The Dangerous Christmas of Red Riding Hood” is a charming and whimsical musical featuring catchy songs by Jule Styne and Bob Merrill, clever dialogue, and delightful performances. This unique adaptation flips the traditional fairy tale on its head by telling the story from the Wolf’s perspective, who claims he was unfairly maligned by Red Riding Hood and the Woodsman. With its festive holiday setting and playful twist on the classic tale, this version offers a fresh and entertaining take on Red Riding Hood’s adventures! In this stage adaptation of the 1966 holiday tv special, the zoo animals throw a Christmas Eve party, but the embittered Lone T. Wolf -- who was not invited -- tells his side of the Red Riding Hood story.
