Little Red . . . You Know Who!



Taking a well-known traditional story (you know which!) as a starting point, the play follows an unconventional path through the woods....

Using beautiful visual effects, inventive puppetry and original music, Freehand Theatre has created a play of special magic with young children in mind.

The music for this production has been composed by Hugh Nankivell, whose credits include work for Opera North, The National Theatre of Scotland and the Anglo-Japanese production, Whaletone. Hugh has been appointed as Dartington Hall’s first featured composer.

A reassuring world where wolves are kept safely between the covers of books; a world in which, out of the blue, a red box has a song to sing and a forest grows before your very eyes.

We absolutely loved Little Red...You Know Who! and I think it is one of my top highlights of the year

The interpretation of the story is artistic and has so many aesthetic elements that we feel the children have been greatly enriched by it. The show has stimulated the children and feedback from them has been wonderful.... altogether this excellent show has a balanced refinement which is very rare to find
