    [Narrator, Mother, Red Riding Hood] [Red Riding Hood s home]

    Narrator: Once upon a time, there was a little girl who lived in a house near the forest.

    Whenever she went out, she wore a red riding cloak, so everyone in the village

    called her Little Red Riding Hood. After she grew older, people start to call her RedRiding Hood. One morning, Red Riding Hood was called by her mother to do

    something for her...

    Mother: Come here my daughter. I want you do something for me.

    Red Riding Hood: (SHOUTING) Yes Mum. I'm coming!

    (After some time...)

    Red Riding Hood: Yes?

    Mother: Here is a piece of cake and a bottle of wine; take them to your grandmother, she is ill

    and weak, and they will do her good. Set out quick, and when you are going, walk nicely

    and quietly and do not run off the path, or you may fall and break the bottle; and whenyou go into her room, don't forget to say, "Good morning".

    Red Riding Hood: Ok, I will take great care Mum. Grandma lives half a league from the village.

    Isn't it right mother?

    Mother: Yes. That's where you grandma lives.

    Red Riding Hood: Okay Mum. I should leave now so that I can come home early.

    Mother: Goodbye! Ahh! Remember not to go to a wrong route and pick some flowers for yourgrandma. Your grandma will be happy enough to see your there with a piece of cake

    and a bottle of wine.

    Red Riding Hood: Okayyyyyy. I really have to go. See you later Mum, Bye~

    (Grandmas house)

    Red Riding Hood: Sorry, but who are you?

    Huntswoman: (walks into the house) Well, little girl , you see, I have a gun. (Shows her the

    gun)The gun is filled with bullets (Shoots the sky) (Sound effect: BANG)Who do

    you think I am?

    Red Riding Hood: Well, only the guards and the hunters can carry a gun/rifle. So, Im guessing

    you are (Interrupted by the Huntswomans laugh)

    Huntswoman: (walks to the table and play with a cup) Hahahahaha, you are a clever girl.Obviously, I AM a huntswoman. Now tell me where the wolf is.

    Red Riding Hood: Wolf? Oh you mean the friend I met at the forest?

    (Grandma enters the stage with a crutch )

    Grandma: Oh its you. What brings you to my house? Theres nothing to hunt in the house.

    Huntswoman: I wont be so sure about that, grandma. (puts down the cup she is playingwith)You know why Im here. One of my hunters is abducted by a wolf.

    Red Riding Hood: Wolf??

    Huntswoman: Yes, little girl. So now tell me, where is the wolf that comes home with you?

    Red Riding Hood: (uneasy, in a high-pitched voice) Wolf? What wolf?

    Huntswoman: (her voice becomes meaner and louder) Dont play games with me little girl. Imean the wolf you have met when you are lost in the forest. The wolf you invite

    into your house. The wolf in your grandmas bedroom now. Your little friend, isnt

    he? The Wolf.

    (Red Riding Hood hides from the huntswomans stare and looks elsewhere)

    Grandma: Ok, stop now, stop questioning her. (coughs) You are accusing us of hiding a wolf.

    Whats your proof then?

    Huntswoman: (smiles) Well, all I could say (pauses for a while) My eyes is the greatest proof

    of all.

    (grabs Red RidingHoods wrist and points her gun towards Little Red Riding Hoodsforehead)

    Tic Tock Tic Tock, the clock is ticking now, grandma, you better bring the wolf or

    else I cannot guarantee that peesh the bullet just flow out and hit your preciouslittle granddaughters head.

    Scene 6

    [Grandma, Wolf/ Boy, Red Riding Hood, Huntswoman] [Grandmas house]

    (Grandma is very angry, coughing loudly.The wolf enters the stage)

    Huntswoman: Or better yet, the wolf appears itself. So wolf, where did you hide my hunter?

    Wolf: Hunter? What hunter? The hunter you claimed to be abducted by wolves? Whats his

    name, Alfred?(Smiles) I saw him peacefully drinking a cup of tea in the guardshouse just before I met

    Red Riding Hood. To me, it is more like a lame excuse to hunt down us the wolves.(pauses for a while) I mean, you hunters just want to kill us and peel our skin off. Its

    the greatest benefit of all, am I right?

    Huntswoman: (angry) Dont tell lies, shall we? I dont know where Alfred is, and my goal today

    is to kill you, maybe thatsthe best way to show your wolf family that we human

    are not so easy to be killed.(points the gun towards the wolf)

    Red Riding Hood: (screams) NO!! (struggles against the huntswoman) Stop! Dont kill him. He

    has done nothing wrong.

    Huntswoman: Nothing wrong? Thousand of years ago, the wolves have killed a lot of the

    villagers. This is the reason why guards and hunters are needed in the village.

    Although I do admit that cutting your skin off after killing you is a prize for ushunters to gain loads of money, Karma comes around big bad boy. (almost pulls the

    trigger)

    Wolf: (soft voice) Dont do this, you will feel regret. The wolves have already paid their prize

    for killing you people by hiding in the dark, being too scared to come out in the daylight

    because of your guns and they havent been able to kill anymore of your people right? If

    you think killing me and selling all my skin to businessmen can put out your fire of hatred.

    Go on, do that.

    Huntswoman: Dont think that I dont dare to do that. (holds her gun with both hands, unaware

    that Red Riding Hood has stepped away from her)

    (Huntswoman pulls the trigger and shot the wolf)

    Red Riding Hood: (screams) Nooooooo..

    (Red Riding Hood tries to walk forward but her grandma stops her)

    Grandma: Sssh, she still has the gun.

    (Red Riding Hood looks up and suddenly so furious)

    Red Riding Hood: (Fury) Dont you dare kill my friend. (Rush towards the Huntswoman and took

    her gun)You have shot him, but you are not allowed to take his body nor his

    skin.

    Huntswoman: You! (steps towards Red Riding Hood)

    Grandma: (secretly took out her cup and threw it at the hunter. The force is so strong that

    the huntswoman faints)No one tries to threat the Riding Hoods. (with confidence,

    coughs, coughs)

    (Red Riding Hood walks towards the wolf, crying)

    Red Riding Hood: (sad) Why? Dont die, I just met you and you are already my friend. Dont try

    to walk away from me now. NOOOOOOO.

    (Her tears fall onto the wolfs injury, suddenly the lights on the stage flash. The wolf turns

    into a human boy. Red Riding Hood is still crying)

    Grandma: (points at the wolf(now turned into a boy)) Oh my my, why is there such a handsome

    boy lying on the floor of my house?

    Red Riding Hood: (looks down) Oh mymy, who are you? Where is my friend, Wolf? (slaps the

    boy) Hey who are you? Where is the wolf?

    (The boy wakes up and looks at himself)

    The boy: No way!!??

    Red Riding Hood: Answer me boy.(slaps him again)

    The boy: Im the wolf you met in the forest.

    Grandma: (hesitate) What? You are the wolf? Now, dont look at me with those puppy eyes, if

    you are the wolf, tell me something you know about me.

    The boy: (laughs) Well, you like your tea hot and bitter.

    Grandma: (mutters) Well that was right.

    11/11

    Red Riding Hood: Wait, I dont believe you. If you are the wolf, why are you a boy now?

    Boy: Well, I used to be a boy like this just few years before. One day long ago, I went into the

    forest, trying to catch a wolf. Im young and scared. But my dad told me that the skin of awolf worth loads of money and I have to kill it and take its skin so that I will have money to

    heal my mothers sickness. (pauses for a while) I did find a wolf, hes injured, very sick. I

    took my knife and shove it into its throat. I thought that I could take its skin and sold formoney. But when I tried to cut off his skin, the sky suddenly turned dark and I become

    the monster I wanted to cut the skin from.

    Red Riding Hood and Grandma: (Took out their handkerchief) Oh that is so touching.

    Boy: I should go and visit my father. I hope that hes still alive and strong.

    Grandma: What about your mother?

    Boy: from what I heard when I was a wolf, an Asian doctor heals my mother. So yeah, Im going

    to visit them. Im sure they miss me a lot.

    Red Riding Hood (holds the boys sleeves) Wait, will we ever meet again?

    Boy: (leans close to Red Riding Hood) Of course we will, Little Red.

    Red Riding Hood: Little Red? My names not Little Red.

    (Boy suddenly kisses Red Riding Hood. Red Riding Hood stood still.)

    Boy: I will be back. (leaves the stage)

    Grandma: Are you ok. Girl? (raises her eyebrow) I had the exact same expression when you

    grandpa kissed me for the first time. He was such a sweetie.

    Red Riding Hood : (dreamy ) Please stops talking grandma.(touches where the wolf kisses her)

    Oh my my!!

    The curtain closes
