The Adventures of Robin Hood
The Theatre School @ North Coast Rep presents a show with bubbling energy and comedic buffoonery in this British Pantomime version of The Adventures of Robin Hood as its next student production.
A bright new panto version of the Robin Hood story, crammed with fresh comedy routines, snappy dialogue, and modern references. A talking tree in a haunted forest, a hero bent on helping the poor, and an hilarious step aerobics routine with Maid Marian and her friends make this a panto experience to remember. Oh, and what exactly does the “a” stand for in Alan a Dale’s name? Plenty of heroes to cheer for and nasty villains to boo, and where else can you see a pantomime horse disguised as a pantomime cow? Plus, is that really a giant rabbit in the archery contest? This is without doubt one of the funniest and most original Robin Hood scripts on the market. Robin Hood is a pantomime full of side-splitting jokes, beautiful costumes, catchy songs, comedy, dancing, and audience participation.
All the family can cheer, boo, hiss, and laugh as Robin comes up against the villainous Sheriff of Nottingham and his sidekick, Denchman the Henchman.
Can he overthrow the mean, money-grabbing tyrant? Will he win the archery contest and win the prize? Will he get to marry the beautiful Maid Marian? Will his hapless mother, Dame Dora, manage to find love? Will King Richard save the day?
Director Benjamin Cole is delighted to share the silly Monty Python style production of this classic tale.
