"The

Hilberry Theatre, Detroit MI - Lake-Sumter
State College, Sumterville FL
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
