SCRIPT:

NARRATOR: Once upon a time there was a girl who lived in a village near the forest with her mother. She always liked to wear a red cape that her grandmother made for her. That is why everybody in the village called her Little Red Riding Hood. One day a hunter came by.

HUNTER: Good morning, madam.

MOTHER: (Mom was doing the gardening outside) Oh, Good morning. Mr. Hunter.

HUNTER: I just passed by little red's grandmother's house yesterday, and found that she was not feeling well. I think you'd better go and check.

MOTHER: Thank you so much for telling me this. I'll send little Red to go.

HUNTER: Um.... By the way, I have heard that there is a bad guy there in the forest, so you’ve got to be careful.

MOTHER: We will. Thank you.

HUNTER: Goodbye, and be careful.

MOTHER: Yes, we will. Goodbye.

NARRATOR: After the Hunter left, Little Red's mother went back to the house. She then came out again with a basket in her hand and she called....

MOTHER: Little Red Riding Hood, Little Red....

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD: Did you call me, mother?

MOTHER: Yes, darling. Your grandmother is sick. I want you to go to her house and bring her some fruits.

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD: Yes, mother.

MOTHER: Don´t stop in the forest, and don´t talk to any strangers. Go directly to grandma’s house.

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD: Don’t worry, mother. I’ll be good.

NARRATOR: Little Red Riding Hood went through the forest skipping merrily with the little basket for her grandmother who lived in a nearby village. Along the way, she saw many beautiful flowers in the forest.

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD: Oh, what beautiful flowers! I will get some for my grandma.

NARRATOR: She left the little basket on the ground and started to pick up some flowers. And then…

RABBIT: Ha, She must be my friend, Little Red Riding Hood.

Hello! Little Red, nice to see you.

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD: Hi! Little Rabbit, good to see you again.

RABBIT: What are you doing?

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD: My granny is sick, so I am going to see her. I'm picking some beautiful flowers for her.

RABBIT: Let me help you, and I’ll accompany you all the way to her house.

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD: That would be great!

NARRATOR: Little Red Riding Hood and the Rabbit continued to pick up some more flowers.

When suddenly, here came a BIG BIB GUY....

Wolf: (Sing: The Wolf Song: I am a Wolf. I'm …) Ahwoooooooooo! (He saw the Little Red Riding hood) Wow! Here comes my food! (He walked toward Little Red.)

WOLF: Good morning little girl. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD: Good morning, Sir. May I know who you are?

WOLF: Oh, I am the Big Ba... Um, The Big GOOD Wolf. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. GOOD Wolf.

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD: Hi, Mr. Wolf.

WOLF: What is your name?

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD: I am Little Red Riding Hood, everyone called me Little Red.

WOLF: Aha, Little Red. Good!

RABBIT: Little Red, Little Red, you are not supposed to talk to the stranger.

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD: It's OK. He looks nice. Don't worry

RABBIT: But.....

WOLF: Ha, ha, ha. Where are you going so early?

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD: : I am going to my grandmother´s house to bring her this little basket of fruits and flowers. Do you like some fruits? (Sing: Fruits song)

WOLF: No… fruits for me, thanks. Does your grandmother live far from here, Little Red?

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD: Oh no, Mr. Wolf, she lives just across the forest in the first little house of the village.

WOLF: Oh, that's great! (He looked around) Um..., look! Do you see the mulberry bush over there? Why don’t you go picking some berries for your granny? I bet she would love to have some fresh berries.

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD: You are right. Mulberries are good for her. Rabbit, could you help me to get some.

RABBIT: Sure.

WOLF: Good-bye, Little Red Riding Hood. I hope she gets better. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD: Oh, Thank you! Bye.

(Sing: Mulberry Bush song)

NARRATOR: Little Red Riding Hood kept picking the mulberries disobeying her mother who told her not to stop in the forest and not to talk to strangers. Meanwhile, the wolf arrived at Little Red Riding Hood's grandma's house. And he knocked at the door.

GRANDMOTHER: Who´s there?

WOLF: It´s me grandmother, Little Red Riding Hood, and I brought you a basket with some fruits and flowers.

GRANDMOTHER: Come in my little girl, just push the door.

NARRATOR: As soon as the wolf entered...... Grandma shouted......

GRANDMOTHER: Ooh no.... You are not Little Red.

WOLF: I am the Big Bad Wolf. And you are my FOOD.

GRANDMOTHER: Help........!

NARRATOR: Grandma ran and locked herself into the kitchen with no way out.

WOLF: Hey you poor old woman. Come out! Or I will break the door and get you anyway.

NARRATOR: Grandma was too scared to answer. Then the Wolf thought.....

WOLF: Hmm... I will get her after I eat the little girl.

Okay! Then, DO NOT come out now. Just STAY inside.

NARRATOR: Then the wolf put on granny’s pajamas, jumped into bed and waited for Little Red. A few minutes later Little Red Riding Hood arrived at her grandmother´s house. She waved good-bye to the Rabbit and knocked at the door.

WOLF: Who´s there?

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD: Grandma, it´s me, your granddaughter, Little Red Riding Hood. I came to bring you a little basket of fruits and flowers.

WOLF: Come in my little daughter, just push the door.

NARRATOR: Little Red Riding Hood entered the house and went straight to her grandmother´s bed, and in the bed there was the Wolf dressed with her grandmother´s clothes.

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD: Grandma, grandma, look what I’ve brought you.

WOLF: Oh, my little girl. Rest for a while. You must be tired.

NARRATOR: Little Red Riding Hood stood there, and looked at her grandmother.

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD: Oh grandmother. How large arms you have!

WOLF: They are to hug you better, darling.

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD: Oh grandmother, how big legs you have!

WOLF: They are to run faster, sweaty.

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD: Oh, how big ears you have, grandmother!

WOLF: They are to hear you better, honey.

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD: And how big eyes you have!

WOLF: To see you better, Little Red Riding Hood.

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD: Oh grandma, and why do you have those big teeth and that big mouth?

WOLF: They are to eat you better! Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

NARRATOR: The wolf jumped out of the bed and tried to grab the Little Red Riding Hood. She ran and shouted.....

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD: Help! Somebody Help me.

WOLF: Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. Don't run my food, Ahwoooooooooo!

NARRATOR: Meanwhile the Hunter was passing by the little house. When he heard the howl of the wolf, he entered the house and saw the wolf chasing after the little Red Riding Hood. The hunter pointed the gun at the wolf.

HUNTER: You Big Bad Wolf, raise your arms.

WOLF: (He ran and shouted.) Don't shoot! Don't shoot!

Narrator: The wolf stopped running. The hunter walked quickly to the wolf and tied the wolf up with rope.

Hunter: I am going to take you to the zoo.

NARRATOR: Little Red started to look for grandma.

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD: Grandma. Grandma. Where are you?

NARRATOR: Grandma came out of the kitchen and held the Little Red tight.

HUNTER: You are safe now.

LITTLE RED & GRANDMA : Thank you for saving us, Mr. Hunter.

HUNTER: No problem, it’s good to see you are alright.

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD: Oh, Grandma, How happy I am to see you.

GRANDMA : And I am happy to see you, too. Child.
