Check out my new one act comedy “Little Red Riding Hood Cowgirl Astronaut,” available with Big Dog Plays.

FARCE. In this school production of “Little Red Riding Hood” the costume designer has taken some creative liberties with the costumes. Little Red Riding Hood has been transformed into a cowgirl astronaut, the Big Bad Wolf looks like a Wall Street trader, Granny is a superhero, Little Red’s mother is a witch, and the huntsman is now the “huntsfairy,” complete with a tiara, tutu, and fairy wings. No matter how hard they try, the cast and director just can’t bring themselves to tell the overly enthusiastic costume designer that her costumes are horrible. With the performance quickly approaching, they have to come up with a solution or resign themselves to performing the wackiest play in the school’s history, “Little Red Riding Hood Cowgirl Astronaut”! Easy to stage.
