(LITTLE ROCK, AR) – The Arkansas Arts Center Children’s Theatre will present Goldilocks and Little Red Riding Hood January 20 – February 5, 2012.  Performances are held Friday at 7 p.m., Saturday at 3 p.m. and Sunday at 2 p.m.
Goldilocks and Little Red Riding Hood take the stage together in this exciting musical production.  These two classic stories are told by a friendly, ever‐present quartet of singers that perform fun and catchy tunes written by Children’s Theatre composer Lori Isner.
“In this adaptation of Goldilocks and Little Red Riding Hood, we have approached these two very old stories in a new and fresh way,” said Artistic Director Bradley Anderson.  “We have used music as a way to make the wolf and bears less threatening and more, well, just plain humorous.  The musical element of our adaptation is more than just a silly way to tell some once‐scary stories. Rather, it gives the play a universal appeal and is a delight for audiences of all ages.”
The cast for Goldilocks and Little Red Riding Hood features: Rachel Haislip as Goldilocks; Anna Holman as Mama Bear; Mark Hansen as Papa Bear; Mattingly Bartole as Baby Bear; Katherine Campbell as Little Red Riding Hood; Mark Hansen as Mother; Josh Rice as Bill the Wolf; Aleigha Morton as Grandma; Nate Buursma as Woodcutter; and Paige Herschell, Christopher Straw, Vanessa Sterling and Chad Bradford as Singers.
Goldilocks and Little Red Riding Hood is adapted by Bradley Anderson and directed by Alan Keith Smith with scene design also by Alan Keith Smith, music by Lori Isner, props design by Miranda Young, costume design by Erin Larkin and lighting design by Adam Britt.  Jimi Brew is the technical director for the production, and Sinovia Mayfield is the production stage manager.

Your Canvas Junkie Host

I am your host at Canvas Junkie and work in several media. I design and make one of a kind sculpture you can wear or jewelry.

As well as paint, make found object sculpture and generally will chase after anything sparkly. When I was a teen my dad would introduce me as his daughter with the disclaimer of "You know artists are weird".

Now that I have seen many years of life pass by (I'm in denial about exactly how many)............. I'm happy to be known as an artist because....... life is just weird.
