Petite Rouge

Head down to The Scoop and discover the story of 'Petite Rouge'.

Everyone loves the story of Little Red Riding Hood and this lively new family musical version from New Orleans, based on Mike Artell's best-selling children's book, will delight children and adults alike.

Joan Cushing's laugh-out-loud script and toe-tapping songs mix lively jazz with sultry Cajun music to tell the story of brave Petite Rouge and her cowardly cat TeJean as they dodge wily alligator Claude through the swamps of Louisiana and the fun of Mardi Gras en route to Grandmere's house.

Expect the blend of award-winning comedy, puppetry, song and dance in this irresistible helping of horrendous French, happy endings and hot HOT sauce.

The Scoop is an open-air sunken amphitheatre with an events programme featuring a wide variety of professional theatre, street performance, film, music, dance and visual arts.

Petite Rouge is being performed every Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday from Wednesday August 13th to Sunday September 7th at 6pm.
