Rain On Me

By Mark Rees

Directed by Victoria Waddington

Introduction

Blending three well-loved fairy tales, Little Red Riding Hood, The Three Little Pigs and Goldilocks and the Three Bears, Woolfie takes place in a series of flashbacks as the wolf must defend himself in the Trial of the Century.

Accused of a variety of heinous crimes that include blowing down other people's houses, impersonating grandmothers, and gobbling up little girls, the much maligned and misunderstood Woolfie must defend himself or face dire consequences.

This new look at an old take explores prejudice in its many forms, and features such characters as Judge Billy Goat Gruff, Little Bo Peep as the bailiff, gangster pigs, a befuddled attorney and a interactive panel of jurors. The play builds to an unexpected ending using audience participation and a surprise witness.
