“an exhilarating departure for online monologues… a snarling, witty script…” The Guardian
**** The Scotsman

In the late afternoon light, a father sends video messages as he struggles to find his way through the woods on the way to pick up his daughter. But remember, she’s not to tell her other dad he’s coming…. it’s to be their little secret.

Equal parts hilarious and sinister, Alan Cumming stars in a bewitching new three-part short from writer Johnny McKnight, directed by Andrew Panton.


“Alan Cumming puts his trademark drollery to diabolic effect in this exhilarating twist on Little Red Riding Hood.” The Guardian

Produced by National Theatre of Scotland, in association with BBC ScotlandScreen ScotlandBBC Arts’ Culture in Quarantine project and Dundee Rep, with support from Hopscotch Films.
