The True Story of the Three Little Pigs

Audience Decides Fate of Wolf in BACT’s THE TRUE STORY OF THE THREE LITTLE PIGS

The True Story of the Three Little Pigs, a wacky musical send-up of a courtroom trial, produced by Bay Area Children’s Theatre (BACT), opens Saturday, April 14, at 2 p.m. at the Freight & Salvage, 2020 Addison Street, Berkeley. 

In this stage version of the irreverent children’s book by Jon Scieszka and Lane Smith, the wolf gives his version of what befell the three little pigs—and the audience gets to decide if he’s guilty or innocent.
