The Missoula Children’s Theatre is at the Pella Opera House this week. Their version of Red Riding Hood opens tonight at 7 pm starring local children in all but one role, and a second performance will be held on Saturday at 10:30 am. Tickets are on sale here.

Cyndi Atkins with the Pella Opera House says audiences will be charmed by the classic tale of Little Red Riding Hood when the Missoula Children’s Theatre and many local students bring to life the story.

She says the shows are designed to be entertaining and educational for the youth in the region. Shows are open to the public as well as to students in area schools and home-schooled students. Sponsored by Vermeer Corporation, tickets are discounted to $12 adults and $8 students.
