The True Story of the Big Bad Wolf

Posted by keilah

Now playing at the 24th Street Theatre!

“There has obviously been some kind of mistake,” insists the Wolf from the pig penitentiary where he’s doing time for his alleged crimes. Here is the “real” story of the three little pigs whose houses are huffed and puffed to smithereens – from the wolf’s perspective. This poor, much maligned wolf has gotten a bad rap. He just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time, with a sneezy cold, innocently trying to borrow a cup of sugar to make his granny a cake. Is it his fault those ham dinners–rather, pigs build such flimsy homes? Lois, a budding news reporter sets out to get the real scoop. She visits the Wolf in the “Pig Pen” where he spins his tail . . . I mean tale – “I was framed,” he concludes mournfully.

This hilarious original musical comedy written by Ray Fisher gives us a contemporary new slant on a well loved story. All seats and ages are just $5.00.  Showings at 12pm and 2pm this Saturday, the 19th and Saturday, September 26th.  A fun filled afternoon for the whole family!

Runaway Stage Productions

Posted by keilah

Nothing puts a smile on my face like live theater.  I am 100% happy when I am caught up in a musical or play!  So I’ve always hoped that my kids would enjoy seeing shows and that it would be something fun we could experience together.  In January, The Princess and the Frog was playing at the 24th Street Theatre by Runaway Stage Productions.  I thought it sounded like a good one for both my daughter and my son and  figured that they were now old enough to sit through the show and enjoy. Plus, admission is only $5.00 per person for Storybook Theatre!  You cannnot beat that deal.  I also happened to have a 2 for 1 coupon from the Entertainment Book and so it only cost $10.00 for all three of us to attend.

The show was so cute and Runaway Stage Productions puts a humorous spin on their stories.  They also included audience participation which made it even more fun for all the kids.  They laughed through the entire show!  At intermission, there were snacks and drinks available but we just went outside for some fresh air with the snacks we brought along.  The production was completely geared towards kids and everyone seemed to have a great time.  You can click here for their website and whenever they have  a show playing, I have it on the Upcoming Events calendar to the right.  Storybook Theatre productions are every other month.  I definitely recommend checking out a show with your kids!
