Little Red Ridding Brat!

This year I was able to direct the school play at the Richfield High School. The play was called "The True Story of Little Red Ridding Hood. It was the story of Red but it was from the wolfs point of view, so of course it was not the wolfs fault that he got blamed for trying to eat grandma and Red. We saw in the play that Red was actually a really bratty little girl who was rude to everyone she met including the wolf and all his animal friends. So the wolf make a plan with Red's grandma, who also thinks that Red is a brat, to scare Red Ridding Hood strait. But the plan backfired when Grandma, who is very old, forgets the plan and goes off look for the hansom woodsman. So the poor wolf gets blamed for trying to eat Red when he is a vegetarian. Poor guy!
The play turned out really funny. Robbie Schmidt played the grandma and did such a good job at being an old woman. He made me laugh for days. Luke Wood and Miranda Hall played the wolf and Red and were both very entertaining.
The play was a musical, and I was so impressed that for a school who has no music program they have a lot of kids who can sing (and Dance, hehe!).

This is the cast, they all did an awsome job at singing, dancing, acting and making everyone laugh.


Here I am with the wolf and red. The cast gave me flowers after the show, I always love to get flowers yahoo!


Here is Grandman and I, I mean grandma. Robbie was so hilarious I want to laugh just looking at this picture.

Here is our wolf Luke Wood. He really got into his part and his mom did an awsome job at putting his costume together. We had no budjet for this program so everything that we used was either scrounged up, donated, or the kids parents made it.

These are just pictures that I took during the play I wish they would have turned out better.



These are all the animal friends. They were the comic relief and they did a lot of dancing, especially when they needed to get away from the smell of the skunk. Red did not make him very happy. :) They also each had singing parts. The animals were played by Dallin Tree as the skunk, Lea Piper as the deer, Tucker Smith as the raskally rabbit, and Tandra Godin as the butterfly. I also had Hayley Falkner who was in charge of the set, which turned out incredible and Dan Derand who played the director. Dan's part was funny because he and the wolf would fight because the wolf had a hard time following the script. Zack Wood play the hansom Woodcutter that Grandma was so captivated by.
