Red Riding Hood and the Three Little Pigs -- a British panto

The Fremont Players return to Hale's Palladium with another raucous British panto, Red Riding Hood and The Three Little Pigs. Putting a humorous spin on two classic children's stories, with original songs and music by the Fremont Philharmonic, this musical comedy is a traditional holiday experience the whole family will enjoy!

Mayor Smallberries is looking to clear-cut the neighboring forest for condos and strip malls, but first he has to oust all the inhabitants, including Grandma and the Three Little Pigs. Red Riding Hood sets out to inform and protect her Grandma, but on the way she encounters two big, bad bullies from her past, along with the spoiled Prince and his nanny, who happens to be an old friend of Grandma's. Between all the reunions and the happy hours, the building up and blowing down of houses, will the Prince and Red find true love? Will Grandma keep her home? Will the three little pigs lose their bacon?!

You'll see large colorful characters, men dressed as women, and women dressed as men. You'll be encouraged to boo at the villain and cheer for the hero and help all the characters along their way to a happy ending. The Fremont Players promise that enough jokes and innuendos will be fired over the kids' heads to keep everyone entertained, so make this show part of your holiday tradition!
