An operetta in one act
Libretto by Marian Partee and Jordan Richardson
Music by Jordan Richardson and Many Old Masters
I can’t die now. Please, wolf, have pity.
I am too lovable, young, and pretty.
I will die never having a husband
Or children of my own
And worst of all, I’ll never have an iPhone.
“Little Red (Katie Worley) is a teenage girl who spends more time texting on her cell phone than talking to her mother (Bree Murphy). In frustration, Mother sends Red off to visit her Grandmother in Ye Olde Folks Home, where Fairy Tale characters live in retirement. Along the way Red meets Junior Wolf (John Keating), who is a vegetarian and so a disappointment to his father, Big Bad Wolf (George Walker). The two teenagers become friends, and when Big Bad Wolf threatens the residents of Ye Olde Folks Home, Red and Junior join forces to aid the senior citizens in the fight of their lives. Loads of laughs await the audience in this hilarious satire, directed by Eric Hoit with musical direction and accompaniment by Jordan Richardson…Fun and frivolity will be experienced by thousands of family and friends as they celebrate a traditional holiday season at The Great American Melodrama.”
