Description

You’ve heard of a courtroom drama? Well, this isn’t (except Baby Bear makes a drama out of everything – she’s such a diva). No, this is quite the most bizarre collection of characters that have ever been up in front of a judge – in fact the judge is pretty bizarre himself! Act 1 is The Crown versus Goldilocks, who is charged with breaking and entering the house of the Three Bears. But what is this? Something about a dodgy insurance policy and entrapment??? Not to mention inedible porridge and Baby Bear’s elocution lessons! Act 2 is The Crown versus The Big Bad Wolf, charged with stalking three pigs while huffing and puffing a lot. (Give that Wolf an inhaler!) All is not what it seems, as the main witness for the Defence, Little Red Riding Hood explains. In fact, it’s all fake news. With a lot of jokes and songs and a perpetually partying Jury – it really is, DISORDER IN COURT and the most riotous alternative to a pantomime you are ever likely to read.
