LITTLE RED
Music by Veronica Mansour Book and Lyrics by Sophie Boyce
ARE YOU SEEING RED?
University of Michigan Workshop 2025
Flipping the script on the original fairytale, Little Red is the story of a relentless young woman training under the enigmatic “Granny” to become the ultimate Wolf-Killer.
​
A visceral theatrical experience... think Hadestown meets Divergent meets Shakespearean tragedy. This is a horror-tinged musical with a score that fuses folk, pop and opera.
​
The show explores the mechanics of fear and polarisation through a thrilling, surprise-filled narrative, ultimately asking whether light can be found in the darkness of the woods.
