Countless adaptations of the famous folk tale “Little Red Riding Hood” portray the young hooded girl and her lone perilous pilgrimage to grandma’s house. The Albemarle Ballet Theatre’s rendition, however, is a lighthearted musical featuring friendly forest creatures and an antagonist that is more Wile. E. Coyote than Big Bad Wolf. This tippy-toe version of the classic story will have the whole family grinning from ear to ear.
Saturday 5/17. $9-12, 6pm. PVCC’s Dickenson Theater, 501 College Dr., 931-5376.
