"The next generation discovers the magic of the theatre."

The audience participation is extensive and great hilarious fun, especially if you have actors who love comedy and ad-libs.  It's easy to book, principals and teachers love the educational tie-ins.  Even very young kids are engaged throughout!

"Robin Hood is such a classic tale about standing up for what's right in the face of adversity. It also has all the adventure and comedy of a full-scale action movie, with the added bonus of putting the kids in the middle of the story. You can't get that experience anywhere but in live theatre. I'm very excited for the next generation of theatergoers to join Robin Hood on his wild adventure and discover the magic of the theatre."
D Henry Hanson, Director, Adirondack Theatre Festival, NY
