THEATER | "Little Red's Most Unusual Day" 

Rochester Lyric Opera presents the classic children's story "Little Red Riding Hood" in a new light. "Little Red's Most Unusual Day" is both a more lighthearted version of the fairytale and a short opera tailored to children. During the 30-40 minute performance, tiny audience members will meet Little Red and her mom, Mrs. Hood; Forest Ranger Dudley; Granny; and the Wolf. Through mishaps, mistakes, and laughs, each character has an unusual day — but it's Little Red who has the most unusual day of all.

"Little Red's Most Unusual Day" plays at 11 a.m., 1 p.m., and 3 p.m. on Saturday, March 5 at The Strong National Museum of Play, 1 Manhattan Square. Tickets are included with museum admission. For more information, call 263-2700 or visit museumofplay.org.
