Seeking Girls & Boys for "Red Vs. The Wolf" Play
Searching for performers who are 6 years old and above for "Red Vs. The Wolf" Play. Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: RED VS. THE WOLF re-tells the story of Little Red Riding Hood, but from the Wolf's point of view. The Wolf is upset because he is known the world over as a bad guy, but he really is kind, sensitive, rightful, and cultural. After refreshing the audience's memory regarding the "traditional" rendition of Red Riding Hood, the wolf tells it like it really happened. He exposes Red and reveals his plan with Grandma to teach Red a badly needed lesson. Hopefully, the audience will see his side of the story, realize there are two sides to everything, and learn a lesson in humility and understanding. Additional info: Performers will read scenes from the script but may bring in a prepared monologue to supplement the readings. PERFORMANCE DATES: Wednesday, May 1 Saturday, May 4 Sunday, May 5 If you are cast, rehearsals will be on Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm, starting on January 23. Everyone who is involved in the show MUST be available the entire week prior to the performance dates AND be available for the performance dates. If interested, please apply.
10 roles
In the first version, Red is sweet, lovable, and sincere. In the second version, she is bratty and not very popular.
Wolf's basic personality is of a likable character who enjoys life and the beauty around him. He's a bit clumsy-almost like a buffoon. He is sensitive and is easily hurt. When he portrays the "bad wolf", he assumes a deep, rather husky voice. He needs to be able to also sound a bit like a young girl, as well as an old woman.
A sweet little old lady, who enjoys playing tricks on her granddaughter. She's not too assertive and gives up rather easily.
A loving, dutiful mother, who dotes on her daughter and thinks her daughter can do no wrong. Loving to a fault!
Kind and wise. A good friend of the Wolf's.
Active and rather feisty. He moves quickly and spontaneously.
Rather timid and shy, and easily intimidated.
Sensuous, beautiful, with a bit of a Southern drawl.
Burly, strong, hard worker, no-nonsense sort of man.
Easily frustrated; barks rather than talks.
