Kids all ages can cheer on Little Red Riding Hood as she escapes once again the big bad Wolf, Rapunzel as she let's down her hair, and the witty Puss in Boots as he helps his master to find a princess at Galli Theaters this Memorial Day weekend. Shows begin at 2 p.m. and are followed by an after-show workshop on Saturday, May 28th, at 3 p.m.
PUSS IN BOOTS at Galli Midtown
The only thing the Miller's Youngest Son inherits is a simple cat, but no ordinary cat is he. He can talk, he's witty, and he's got big plans. Soon the Miller's Son finds himself enjoying adventures, wealth and marriage to a beautiful princess.
LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD at Galli Seaport
Galli's Little Red Riding Hood is the fairy tale story of a little girl who is seduced by a mean and witty wolf, and then devoured. Little Red engages its audience in song, dance, and comedy along her journey to grandmother's house. The Wolf is almost likable and definitely funny when he asks the kids to howl along and to help him find Little Red.
RAPUNZEL at Galli Bronx
Rapunzel lives in a tower guarded by the witch. One day, a prince discovers her and comes climbing up, but the witch will not tolerate this. Kids get engaged by helping Rapunzel and her prince find each other again.
THE WORKSHOP
In the after-show workshop children are encouraged to dress up in costumes and act out their favorite fairy tale characters. The workshop is followed by a mini performance for the adults. "Galli's Fairytale Theater is a perfect place to bring your children and make them feel comfortable about the stage, the experience of theater, and maybe even the art of being in it," said Carol Cain, Managing Editor of NY Metropolista.
