by Anthony Aguilar, Oscar Basultos, and Quetzal Flores
Director/Choreographer Sylvia Cervantes Blush
Music Director Jamond McCoy
SYNOPSIS: Teenage punk rock fan Little Red has always dreamed of seeing her favorite band, The Jack B. Nimbles, perform live. But when she finally has a chance to make it happen, their one-night-only concert lands on El Día Del Sendero: It's Little Red's turn to deliver a basket of food to Grandma, as countless generations of her family have done before her. Encouraged to stray from the path by the seductively charismatic Don Coyote, will Little Red continue the family legacy or abandon it in the spirit of punk rebellion? Find out in this bold musical adaptation of the classic fairy tale.
