About this Event

The Barn Theatre and Museum relaunches this February half-term with a brand-new and specially-comissioned show - The Ballad of Red and the Wilding Wolf - a vibrant reimagining of Little Red Riding Hood (with connections to the museum’s collection of puppets and antique toys).
About the show
The animals are angry. The people aren’t listening. And somewhere in the woods, a Big Bad Wolf is on the prowl. Will the two sides clash, or can a little girl called Red find a way through?
Combining music, puppetry, and theatrical magic, this thoughtful retelling of Little Red Riding Hood explores familiar themes from new perspectives, delving a little deeper and meeting some new characters along the way.

After the show there will be the chance to explore the museum of toys and puppets, and take part in a creative workshop in the museum.

Ages:
The show is suitable for ages 4 and up but all are welcome.
