Little Red Riding Hood is coming to Croydon this month in a show that is fun for all the family, writes Andy Bloss.

Members of the audience can follow Red Riding Hood on her adventures in the forest as she meets Silly Billy, Woody the Woodcutter and other colourful characters.

The show has plenty of colourful costumes, sing-a-song songs, comedy, fun and lots for children to join in with.

Suitable for children aged three years old and upwards, the show sees if Red Riding Hood can overcome the big bad wolf.

A spokesman for the group says: "Who’s afraid of the big bad wolf? No one and certainly not strong, independent Red Riding Hood.

"She is a girl who knows her own mind and is not going to be beaten by the silly, funny wolf.

"Children can laugh at him, boo him and cheer when he’s defeated. Red and her friends soon show him who is boss.

"This production from The Derek Grant Organisation is great entertainment for all the family."
