'Little Red Riding Hood' Tangles with Wily Old Wolf at MCCC's Kelsey Theatre May 14

Grandmothers don’t usually have disturbingly large eyes, pointy teeth or furry gray ears. Unless they are a wolf! Young audiences will delight in the musical adaptation of the beloved fairy tale “Little Red Riding Hood,” to be presented at Mercer County Community College’s (MCCC’s) Kelsey Theatre by the award-winning Kaleidoscope Theatre.

This fun-filled show is set for Saturday, May 14 at 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. Kelsey Theatre is located on the college's West Windsor campus, 1200 Old Trenton Road.

With audience participation galore, children will have a chance to get in on the wolf’s sinister plan and Little Red’s ultimate triumph. From a unique beginning to a thoroughly happy ending, entertainment is in store for all as the traditional characters come to life through song, dance and laughter.
