or The Sheriff Try to Kill
Robin Hood? Sherwood!
by David J. Fielding
A "Robbin' the Rich to Pay our Bills!" production
Deep in the Forest of Sherwood, near the village of Nottingham, in
Merry Olde England, several legendary characters meet in a comic twist on
a well-known story.
The play is set some twenty years after the story most already know.
Robin (Michael
Moran)and Maid Marion (Arlene
Merryman
or Rachel
Podwika) have been happily-ever-aftering in Sherwood Forrest, continuing to
foil the evil Sheriff of Nottingham. After two decades of cavorting in the
woods, Marion has had enough, and will do anything to escape her husband.
Robin's band of Merry Men has dwindled considerably. For Robin's best
friend, Will Scarlet (Gino
Angelo) much of the joy is gone in robbing from the rich and giving
to the poor. Furthermore, he can't seem to get a steady girlfriend.
Since Little John has left the troupe to be with his lover, Friar
Tuck, Robin has replaced Little John with John's younger sister, Joanna
(Dee McCorkle or Valery Staskey),whom he calls "Little Jo."
Meanwhile, the evil Sheriff (Butch
Maxwell) continues to scheme and plot ways in which he can finally kill
Robin-in-the-Hood, as the Sheriff calls him.
