Act I
Fairytale Or What?
(Setting: Reds Home)

Narator

: Once upon this time, in a far far away village called, well, the Village, lives a
girl who loves wearing a red cap so much, all the time, and so she earned the
name Red Riding Cap. She lives with her mother in a tiny cozy hut. This tale
begins on one fine morning

Mommy

: (gasps) Gracious goodness me! The sky must have fallen! (from Chicken
Licken)

Red

Mommy

Red

Mommy

: (screams and runs) Kyaaa! Run and save your lives!

: Huh?

: But you said the sky has fallen?

: Thats just an idiom, stupid. Look, Ive just received an sms from your
Grandma, that lousy grumpy useless old woman. Shes ill, and she got no
more food left.

Red

Mommy

: Oh, then should I bring her something?

: I was considering leaving her starving to death, but since youre willing to go
to her house, that would be excellent.

(Mommy prepares food basket)

Narator

: It so happens that Grandma lives in the woods, half an hour from the village.
So........

Mommy

: Here you go, girl. This is a poisonous apple (grins evilishly) I mean,
nutritionous apple for my mother-in-law. Remember one thing: Grandma
must eat this apple immediately! Do not leave the pathway, or youll get lost.

Red

Mommy

Narator

: Okay Mom.(leaves)

: Ihihihihihihi.

: Poor Grandma! I know, I know, thats the legendary poisonous apple from the
Snow White fairytale! This evil woman will use it to kill the poor old woman
in order to get her inheritance! Anyone please help Grandma!!!

Mommy

Narator

:(to Narator) Shut up! Dont mess up with my brilliant plan! Ill be rich!

:(to self) Hmm, I wonder what the poisonous apple is doing here in this story...

(Setting: Forbidden Forest)

(Red enters, breakdances while listening to iPod)

Narator

: Well, unacknowledged by Red Riding Cap, this Forbidden Forest is full of

terrifying creatures and nasty beasts, and the meanest, wickest, ugliest among
them all is The Wolf.

(Wolf

howls)

Red

:(shivers) Yikes! Whats that? Scooby-Doo, where are youuu?

(Kunti jumps in)

Red

:(screams girlishly) Kyaaaa! Syaitan! (peeks through his fingers)

Director

: Cut! Cut! Wrong actor! This is the production of Red Riding Cap, not
Dunia Lain! Get out!

(Kunti walks out, Wolvie jumps in)

Narator

: Red Riding Cap has never met a wolf before, so she isnt scared at all. And
the Wolf speaks

Red

:(to Narator) Wait a second! What year is it now?

Narator

:(checks the script) Er, supposedly 18th century.

Red

: Nah! According to every encyclopedia and historical documents, there has

never been any case of an animal speaks! Wolves cant speak! (Wolvie sobs)
So would anyone explain to me why this Wolf can speak?

Narator

: Er, because this is just a fairytale?

Red

: Oh.

Narator

: What a moron. So, the Wolf speaks

Wolf

: Good day to you girl, youre the Red Riding Cap, arent you?

Red

: Yes I am. Good day to you too, Mrs.Dog.

Wolf

: Im not a dog! Im a wolf!

Red

: Yes, Mrs.Wolf, I think youre a very cute dog.

Wolf

: Aaaargh! Where are you going so early, Red?

Red

: To Grandmas house. Im bringing her some food from my mom.

Narator

: The Wolf thinks to herself

Wolf

:(to self) Now that sounds yummy.(counts) A grandma, a little girl and
some fruit for dessert.

Wolf

:(to Red) Where does your Grandma live, Red Riding Cap?

Red

:(innocently takes out a map) Not far. (Wolf takes notes / draws on the
whiteboard) Were in the middle of the Forest, so walk straight north for 50
metres, then turn west, then walk 87 steps to your left, then take a bus to the
nearest McD, then walk north for 90.35 centimetres ahead. For further
information

you

can

send

an

e-mail

grandpa_cute_and_lonely@forbiddenforest.com.

Wolf

:(looks at drawing/notes) Thats just the same as if you tell me to walk

straight north from here!

to

Red

: Oh, I love reading maps.

Wolf

:(sighs) Nice to speak to you, Red Riding Cap.

Red

: Yeah, me too, Mrs.Dog. Have a nice trip.

Narator

: And it so happens that the Wolf knows a shortcut to Grandmas house, thanks
to a new busway route by Fauzi Bowo. But unfortunately this shortcut leads
her to the Woodswomans place.

Woodswoman : Baaa! Where are you going so hurrily, Wolvie?

Wolf

: (surprised) Kyaaa!

Woodswoman : Hmm, you look suspicious.

Wolf

: I-I-Im going to Grandmas house!

Woodswoman : A house? Is there any house around here?

Wolf

: Y-y-yes! A few metres ahead!

Woodswoman :(to self) Hmm, I would really like a house. Im homeless and these days
apartments are so expensive! (to Wolf) What are you going to do at
Grandmas house?

Wolf

Woodswoman

Wolf

: Umm, have supper!

: Have supper with Grandma or have Grandma as supper?

: Aih.

Woodswoman : I wont let you! Banzaaai! (attacks )

(Wolf and Woodswoman fight ala Matrix)

Who would win? Would Grandma lose her life or her house? Who would come to rescue them
all? Who was the real mastermind behind everything? Would cute and lonely
Grandma receive an e-mail from the Wolf?

Act II

: And back to the ring, the Wolf is in the red corner and the Woodswoman is in

busway shortcut, the Wolf manages to reach Grandmas house faster than
