Sherwood: The Adventures of Robin Hood

Show Description:

A story about fighting for what your conscience requires. The story begins with a young man who believes in nothing but a good time, then comes face to face with the kind of greed and inhumanity that won’t let him sleep at night. Suddenly he’s an outlaw hiding in Sherwood Forest where he joins up with a band of followers including Little John, Friar Tuck, and a feisty adventuress, Maid Marian Fitzwalter, who steals his heart and won’t give it back.

This classic story of courage is based on the English ballads of the 14th and 15th centuries and is filled, like its hero, with thrills, romance and a deep belief in social justice.

Following the matinee on Sunday, January 29, director Don Bernardo will deliver a post-show talk entitled “Who was Robin Hood? The Identity of the Outlaw Revealed!” This will include a brief historical review of the Robin Hood legends, and their impact on popular culture both past and present.
