It’s Chanukah, the Jewish festival of light, and Little Red Riding Hood’s village is in need of a new electricity source, at an affordable price. Will Red bring home the bacon? Will the Big Bad Pig be pig headed? Is the Wolf misunderstood and not so full of wind? And will Bubbe (Grandmother) save the day with her own special wind?
For the first time bringing together the traditions of Pantomime and Jewish storytelling, Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Pig is traditional Pantomime magic at its best, with classic panto favourites including: sloshing buckets, getting lost in the woods, panto baddies and a catchy finale song sheet!
Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Pig is written with Jewish humour by Nick Cassenbaum (Bubble Schmeisis), Director Georgia Green, (currently transferring her Bush Theatre production of Invisible to 59E59 in New York) says: “I’m so excited to bring this Chanukah Panto genre into existence. I loved panto as a child and my work pushes for a big relationship with the audience.” The Musical Director Josh Middleton (DJ Vadim, Indecent – Menier, Puppet Theatre Barge), will play live on stage with a three piece band. The live band and the cast will be playing a multitude of traditional instruments from: accordion, guitar, trumpet, Bulgarian bagpipe, harp and Irish whistle and singing a mix of modern Jewish pop and rock songs and traditional classic Jewish songs in Klezmer style – but with all new pantomime lyrics!
Another first is Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Pig will have a performance at 2pm on Christmas Day.
