Who wants the same old “heard-it-before” tale of Little Red Riding Hood when there’s a much wilder version waiting in the wings? That’s what an ambitious stagehand wants to know. Tired of sitting through yet another boring performance put on by a pompous narrator and his untalented group of actors—including his niece as the lead, a super-nerdy wolf and some disgruntled extras who are reduced to playing trees—the stagehand wants to bring in a truly talented actress to play Little Red, the leader of a motorcycle gang called the Riding Hoods! Of course, the haughty narrator refuses to let the “lowly” stagehand have his way, so the stagehand must think of creative ways to coax him offstage so that the jazzed-up show can go on!
