Smart bets: The True Story of the Three Little Pigs

Posted on by Kat McReynolds

“Three Little Pigs has a clever script and catchy score, coupled with some moments of really fun audience participation,” says Asheville Creative Arts co-founder Robbie Jaeger. Now in its third season of presenting childhood favorites through theater, ACA will employ puppetry by co-founder Abby Felder and the talent of professional actors Jordan Ellis, Glenn T. Griffin, Gina Jobes and Katy Shepard to reveal the big bad wolf’s alibi in this “hilarious rock musical” — all before calling upon audiences to declare the accused star either guilty or innocent. Family-friendly productions take place at N.C. Stage on Thursday and Friday, Feb. 26-27, at 7 p.m., and Saturday, Feb. 28 and Sunday, March 1, at 1 and 4 p.m. $12 students and groups/$23 adults. ncstage.org. Cast photo courtesy of NC Stage

    Why is this Asheville-based theatre company employing Charlotte actors instead of some of the talented Asheville-based actors?

      Because it is a Charlotte based company the produces shows in Asheville. They hired local actors for Charlotte’s Web. It is my understanding that you don’t want to work for them.

    Based on my friends experience working for them, you don’t want to….nice job pretending to be locals. Lol.
