| Synopsis | At Lincoln Elementary School, five students and two teachers have been rehearsing a production of “Little Red Riding Hood.” Today is the big day: show day! Will it go exactly as they all planned? Probably not. But that’s the fun of it, right? | ||||||||||||||
| Notices | The kids should not be played by actual kids. Emphasize the comedy of it by casting adults/college students/high schoolers. The musical within the play is meant to be bad. However, it should still be coordinated and performed safely. Improv and adlibbing are encouraged and will be at the forefront of this production process. Fight Choreography Breakdown:
