Little Red Riding Hood
07 April to 08 April

About Little Red Riding Hood
A Northern Ballet production
Choreography and Direction by Mariana Rodrigues
Little Red Riding Hood is a kind little girl who loves her family. On the way to visit her grandmother, she meets a very hungry wolf in the woods – but is he really as ‘big and bad’ as the stories say?
Join Little Red on an enchanting adventure as she discovers the importance of kindness and makes some unexpected friends along the way.
Designed especially for children and their families, Little Red Riding Hood gives little ones the opportunity to experience the magic of live ballet, music and theatre. With colourful costumes, lively characters and playful storytelling, it’s the perfect treat for the whole family!
Following sell-out performances across the UK and a series of hugely successful CBeebies TV adaptations, Northern Ballet’s productions for children continue to delight audiences year after year.
Production supported by The Keith Howard Foundation, The Linbury Trust, The Liz & Terry Bramall Foundation, The Dorfman Foundation, and The Powell Family Foundation.
